Turning off

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.

Quote gutterfax="gutterfax"Sometimes, RL fans who have an unfathonable dislike of the other code don't half come up with some utter bollox.

1. I have heard tell of these mystical freebies that sarries throw about like confetti, but have yet to track them down or see a link to an offer declaring this blatant fudging of average attendances.

2. 36,503 people paid to watch the London Broncos in their 13 "home" games in 2013 but it is your assertion that we should instead cast doubt on the validity of a RU club attracting 4,560 MORE FANS to ONE regular season game.

3. The RFL first round of 4 play-off games, featuring 2 matches where the sides were from within 15 miles of each other attracted 35,128 than this sarries game you feel the need to question.

4. 31,728 Rugby League fans paid to attend the 4 Quarter Finals of the 2012 Challenge Cup.

Why is it that some fans feel the need to try and belittle the other lot? Is it amisguided belief that by trying to poke fun at Union we will all forget the general apathy of your average RL fan in the UK. Do they mistakenly believe that by questioning the attendance and the methods to achieve it at a Union game, that the rest of us will forget the crowds that the RFL fails to attract to games that aren't included on ST's at clubs? The Exiles anyone? The Challenge Cupsemi between Hudds and London this year maybe...?

Rather than question the goings on at a club that identified, purchased and will have built a stadium inside 12 months why don't we continue to discuss ways in which the RFL can sort out this farce......because empty stadiumson TV isn't going to attract anyone! IMO that is.'"

Quote gutterfax="gutterfax"Oh dear....another one who thinks because I openly state that RL could learn a lot from Union....I am now some sort of anti-league troll.....

......

Here...pour this petrol on your pre-conceptions of me....

2013 Northern Hemisphere tours of SA/AU/NZ head to head with the total attendance of the RLWC 2013.......just because I know which will get the bigger attendance doesn't mean I applaud it......it simply means I UNDERSTAND IT!

The 1 Billion NRL TV deal is massive......but it is for 1,400+ games........the 6 Nations gets 60% of that revenue for 75 games.....do facts like this bother you? I don't like them either, but putting stickers on lorries isn't going to change it soon......

Don't mistake realism for anti-league sentiment.....90%+ of my post on here are about how to grow the game in the UK

Quote fatbaztod100="fatbaztod100"Keep the play offs to eight teams.

1v8, , 3v6, 2v7, 4v5

Winners of match one play winners of match two

Winner of match three plays winners of match four

Highest finishing team of the regular season plays at home

The winners of the matches play in the GF. In theory the best two teams of the season should meet at OT, as the decks are in their favour. If they lose tough they're out it's knock out stuff.'"
