Quote ="Chorlton RL"My view is that the RFL should get in touch with all clubs registered with them; SL, Championship, Community, all of them, all over the country. They should explain to them and the fans that fans can buy tickets via tickermaster or whatever, but they are relying on clubs to sell tickets. The deal would be that if a club sells a ticket they get ALL the profit for it. So, assuming the profit is 60% of a ticket and a ticket costs £20, the RFL gets £8 to cover the costs of venue hire etc, and the club gets £12.
The you watch what the attendance would be!
The role of the RFL is to hold events and suport the clubs. What better way to support clubs then to say "You put the work in and you'll reap the rewards". What club would turn down the opportunity to make a nice wedge with minimal effort and what fan would turn down the opportunity to go to Wembley to support England in order to financially support the club?'"
I think a split in profit would be better, the rfl need to make money on these matches to be able to function.
