It’s one of those things, a good cup run is seen as a good thing, winning is a good thing. But last thing you then want is to come up against a red hot Saints or Leeds and get a spanking

...or Wigan in a Semi-Final and have our owner destroy us in a hissy fit!
JESUS WEPT HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
Just seen the rest of the CC York v Catalans in York could be an interesting game. Wonder where Manchester wolves, oops sorry Toronto Wolfpack will play there game

obsessed much? I'll debate anything I feel I have a standpoint on.......I think the Canadians are a sham, Catalans are a clb that we need to save and London Broncos have no chance of being a feasible club with our current owner......
.....and it's argument!

According to Dave Woods the tie will be at Barrow, whoever Toronto drew would be at home
Barrow could go into that game with a bit of confidence, think they will struggle against Toronto on a drier pitch though. The broncos Leigh game looks like the pick of the round in regards to competition. Reckon the streaming game could be York at Bootham
