Also, BBC and ITV haven't published the league tables for this competition yet. Aren't the media spot on with publicity for our level of RL?!
In all fairness, it is called 'The National League Cup', in the same way that we know the 'Challenge Cup' as that, as that is their offical title to allow for sponsorship changes etc.

I know what you are getting at, but the RFL actually call it 'The Championship', not the 'National League' - apparently they can no longer call it that, since they let 'foreigners' in it!

I would normally agree with you there, Matt. However, this week, I emailed the RFL, as a last resort, for info. on Lokomotiv Moscow. The RFL website has links to every RL playing nation on the planet - even Wales - but the only one not working is the one to 'Russian RL'.
Imagine my surprise, when they replied to my request. I might have to stop taking the p*** out of them, in the programme! Well, at least for this week!!

Any chance you can get some information out of them about the France-England game in June then?!
