Great bit of coverage but it did remind me of the year the dipstic spent £10,000 on an advert in the England Wembley game announcing the change back to the Broncos....... 3 months before the first game.
Still, a great coup for the club and if we can get a repeat on the week before the first game it would be fantastic.

JESUS WEPT :WALL: 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. :BEAT:

Sarcasm somewhat loses its edge when you can't type it correctly!

Excellent piece, really bigging up the club. A pity we could not have got in an ad for season tickets.
Just come home on a South Eastern train. I was wearing my Broncos coat. They guy opposite me had been reading The Standard, saw the coat and we sat talking about the club and rugby league for about twenty minutes, until he got off. He is an armchair Saracens fan. Not ever likely to become a Broncos fan. I think. But he said he would look out for our results. Once the season starts.
