Just in case anyone didn't know their warm up v Leeds is on Premier Sports on Friday. Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere.

The lack of advertisement for this upcoming series is ridiculous. A lot of people wouldn't even know the France game was happening.

Upsettingly true.

I've just got tickets for the France game in the East Stand. The West is sold out.

EDIT: Some West Stand tickets could be available elsewhere, but LSV had none.

i hope they've got their act together for the london game - will be very embarrassing if there's just a handful rattling around in the olympic stadium.
Just another scheduling/marketing feck-up by the RFL. It's not as if the union boys have kept things quiet for the last couple of years.

(although my ticket's yet to arrive - got the one for the last game at ours the other week)

Over 30k sold for the Olympic which is pretty good going with a couple of weeks to go, but surely they should be pushing the marketing and advertising to get it as full as possible. KC and DW should be sell outs but it wouldn't hurt to market it. I literally haven't seen one poster, TV advert etc.

People moan about some fans' apathy towards international RL, but it's difficult to criticise people when the governing body doesn't do any marketing, plus the broadcasters aren't bothered about it. I know it's only a friendly but it's pretty shocking that the France game isn't on TV. I think Sky have the rights but they've pretty much ignored internationals since the WC.

They really need to push that Olympic park game because a sell out in that can really set us up down there IMO. Wembley is too big for us to fill yet but the size of Olympic park is just right (with a bit of effort).

I've been to internationals at Wembley over the past few years and the crowd is a real mix of Southerners plus fans that travel from the North. If they can put on a good show in that second test I'm convinced people will keep going back year on year which gives us a pretty achievable 50,000 crowd everytime there's a series here.
