Quote: Standee "They are a partner, so it's not the "Foxy Bingo SL", even Sky still haven't got a major broadcast partner, no idea what the suits at Red Hall do for their money. Having said that, the rest of the game's administration is equally as bad.'"


What baffles me is...we are constantly told that RL has a more 'downmarket' audience than RU, but in this economic downturn it is generally the downmarket retailers who are performing well.

so why hasn't the RFL attracted a budget supermarket, retailer or booze brand etc?

Because the RFL want to protect the game and not be sponsored by a brand that can create problems or making the sport look like a joke and unprofessional. That's why they opted for Stobart instead of betfair or another gambling company iirc.

Foxy Bingo = Gambling
Tetley's = Beer

so your observation is wrong.

Think the RFL are doing a good enough job at present making the sport look a joke TBH.

The fact they have no main sponsor with the season just 2 days away is just unbelieveable and totally unacceptable.
