| Quote ="maurice"Some interesting opinions here.
When you look at the companies, especially financial/insurance, who fight to sponsor RU it makes you wonder why? The sponsorship from state bail outs like RBS/HBOS/Lloyds I find shocking, are the old boy networks in floated banks so strong they can do what they wish ?
Saracens 'sold' all those tickets yet play in a half empty stadium every home game in Watford, how many of those Wembley tickets were handed out by sponsors to folk who never go till the next free 'event'. Less than 6500 v Wasps and less than 6000 v Gloucester the last 2 home games for them.
Why are BT, BBC, ESPN, Canal+ and SKY all bidding for a sport with terrible viewing figures?
What you have to take your hat off to the ERFU is the control they exercise in the media and the City.
What frustrates me is why we do not play to our strengths, a region in which pro RU is all but dead and has a greater population than Wales, Scotland and Ireland combined.
Then you see who runs the sport and you quickly realise why we are where and what we are.'"
The sponsorship you mention - I'm just curious, but who are the Banks sponsoring?

I would like to clarify this comment, it is not meant as being derogitory against Salford fans, I wish them the best of luck and most certainly would not want to see their club fail, but it is against the usual lack of real information that boards (Bulls as well) seem to put out to string fans along.
A number of Salford fans bought 5 year deals at the new ground and if the club does go under those people will no doubt lose all their money.
It's time the lies stopped and fans were treated with more respect, they are the ones that keep clubs, and this sport, alive.
A Merry Christmas to ALL Rugby League fans, wherever you are and whoever you support.
And also a prosperous New Year to all as well.

| Going sideways on this topic, the Spirit of 1873 Ltd, who own Wakey lost over £1.2M in their first year of trading. Some new leaf there! That's not sustainable even with the alleged development on the horizon.

How mad would it be to go to a new stadium with large debt hanging round your neck.

Yes, even Arsenal have had to tighten the purse strings since their move from Highbury so imagine the fiancial pressure RL clubs are under in these circumstances.

| Interestingly, Salford are included in the Championship club U20 fixture list rather than the SL U19 fixture list.

| Wakefield currently breaking even, an only spend about half the cap, an they honored there debts, a team on the up an who do not really on a benefactor. Even though they have had a little money put in to give them a boost, but it has become sustainable business.

I don't understand how much this has cost the club, but it just shows how precarious the finances of "some" Super League clubs are.

| No, nothing to do with Mr Glover whatsoever. They ran up massive losses when he wasn't there and they went bust but the fact that he's there now and they're doing OK has nothing to do with him at all. They lost £1. 2m in their first new year of trading and the reason they were able to do that also had nothing to do with Glover either. No sir.
