Yes mate I do follow this geezer. Wolves are still down under, they’ve got a friendly against South Sydney (Matt King’s new club) on 28th. David Solomona’s broken his leg. Is Paul Noone still at Oldham? I guess you’re an Oldham fan with tha username.

I follow the Exiles (London Irish) in the 15 man code so if you feel the inclination for some good cross code banter then I’ll let you have first shout.

what is the problem with this?
why is this any different from the Npower championship in cricket or the Nationwide Championship in football, or even the Barclays Premiership in football
these leagues need sponsors, and if Eddie Stobart was the best deal on the table for them, why not?

Because NPower or Barclays wouldn’t have started a 30 page thread.
Whereas ESL…

To be honest I actually admire both codes but cant help but feel there should be a lot more coverage of the championship as there are some great contests on there. Plus some potentially great emerging talent coming through the ranks.
Cant see the Exiles doing well. By that I mean actually winning it.
Saracens should do well again, Saints could also figure as they are a youngish outfit with good coaching staff plus they werent far away a couple of seasons back! And the mentality down Franklins is to allow failure to drive you on to bigger and better things.
If im honest I dont care who wins as long as it isnt those inbred tigers!!
Fair comment that one Tonka. It’s being debated on Twitter now with @RHunterPaul.
Cheers for the follow by the way.
There’re all inbreds down Welford Rd!!!
As for Rugby league…all meat heads just don’t have the skills and style of union… Lol…a bit like the Rugby clubs in Stamford…

No comment 
Companies do sponsorship deals to create brand awareness
and when times are hard
scrimping on advertising can be detrimental to this
I recall a few years ago,can’t remember the exact date,both codes met at Twickenham for two games,one at 15 man RFU rules and the other at 13 man RFL rules.Guess what,the RFL lads ■■■■■■ all over RU boys in both games,it was nothing short of humiliation on the RFU’s sacred turf,I don’t think it has ever been staged again,nor is it likely to I should think !! Bewick.
Isn’t rugby football just an excuse for big sweaty men to shove their heads near each others arses and crotches in the name of sport?

And your point is??
Any of you Stobart spotters can have a look at the trailers that they’ve got liveried up.
