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

Just ask one of the "old" Cougars about similar a type of sponsor and what they got out of it!!!!
It was a round figure as you can imagine.

They haven't got one as they are a fairly new
As I said a few pages ago, based on what the owner has said in the past about not needing any new franchise members, I can't see what he is sponsoring anybody for - I always thought sponsorship was to attract new customers (yet according to him he don't need any)
Given the premise of the business, I would always be sceptical about it, but only time will tell

At the end of the day as long as Cas have got the money up front they have nothing to lose, if they havn't that's a different story.

That depends on whether PROBIZ are putting any money in with a view to a percentage ownership. If they are to have a stake in the Stadium, they may require interest on their investment or Cas to pay them a rent like some of these Housing Associations do when you buy half the equity in a property.
I am sure there is some reason for PROBIZ involvement that goes beyond sponsorship and is likely to relate to something in it financially for them.

I didn't say they were advertising for free. Probiz appear to be offering advice to WBA players and staff - pro bono if you will.
And although WBA are a Premiership side, they are hardly one of the big guns (still way bigger than any UK RL club of course). Just seems odd that neither side are talking about their being cash involved - yes you might make the assumption that there is..but then again that is what both sides would want you to think.
In any event, I don't particularly care (despite repeated posts on the topic!) what happens, and time will tell. I am primarily interested in this because I'm a CA and interested/skeptical about the business model of Probiz. |
