Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us. If you are having problems logging in, please try a different browser or platform, if problems persist then email support@rlfans.com
Quote="Bullseye"I'm sure BBC have a bit more of a budget, knowhow and equipment than proper sports. Mick and John Keyes were sharing the same microphone on Sunday. The TV gantry wasn't strong enough to hold the commentators either. I'm not surprised there are issues but this is all new and will improve with experience. Great that it's happening at all. If the club can come up with a way of selling it to potential sponsors then it could be very lucrative.
If Proper Sports get good figures they may decide to invest a bit more?'"
Mick isn't the slenderest of people!

As someone who can only get to a game or two each season I was really excited by this service. That's been tempered a little bit since, I fell asleep during the second half on Sunday...
Obviously it's value is going to depend on each ground's facilities. York was watchable, Keighley was just pixels, and no sound early on. I could only identify Lee Smith amongst the Bulls players as the pixels were larger. Also when they got creative with the zoom camera (I'm assuming a digital camera plugged in) I couldn't see a thing.
My only bugbear is why they need a new stream for the second half as so far this works and I miss the first quarter of an hour.
A shame about the gremlins as I would happily pay a couple of quid to watch the game streamed live if the quality was assured.
