[RL The greatest game]

Disappointing in my view.

hope we hear no more from the CC and 2GB lose the rights

Seems a bit sookie to me. Just because the Central Coast don't have a team doesn't mean he needs to walk away.

That's dumb logic. Why would he continue to lease a stadium in an expansion market when expansion seems to have been taken off the table for the time being?

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

Who is John singleton?

 

[juanfarkall]

Hasn't he "walked away from Rugby League" before ?

 

[Ronnie Dobbs]

He's an old piss head. A bully.

Good luck to him in whatever he does, but hes not relevant to the future of the game. He just wants to keep his name up in lights.

He is actually the product of a working class family who was clever enough to get into a very good state high school, earned a million before he was thirty, in advertising (and those were the days when a million was a lot of money), and has beenvery successful for many years.


He is neither a piss head, nor a bully. His name will be in lights for a few years yet, whatever happens.


I think there is a bit of envy in the wind.

This.

It would be awesome if Singo could FULLY piss off from RL and that would mean no more CC team.

In the Article it says he didnt take up the lease again 6 months ago....Think he decided to walk away before the TV deal was done...

There's been whispers going around for months that expansion won't happen even in 2015. Do you think this week is the first time the stakeholders heard 9/Fox don't care about a ninth game?

 

[Teddyboy]

There is a nice stadium there on the Central Coast and some NRL team should be playing out of it full time.

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

He's spat the dummy before.

No loss.

Go visit Mike Gibson once a week and you two sooks can cry on each other's shoulders Singo.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Strawberry Road was no Wazn Mr Singo

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Well I'd definitely be happy if the Knights played half their games at Gosford

 

[Brutus]

Once of his best dummy spits resulted in 2GB calling Swans matches.

Go and ask a few of the old blokes from South Maroubra Dolphins winter swimming club. They might have a different story for you. There was a very good reason he got a life ban.

 

[Ziggy the God]

Singleton has spat the dummy about League more times than he has had wives.

No its funny it came out now though the CC Bears were never coming into the comp its like souhts actually winning the comp or you making sense..

 

[Perth Red]

Wonder if the Arlc will take over the lease? Could be a profit maker and show some commitment to the area. Who actually owns the stadium?
