The grand plan

"So the inclusion of French teams creates significant economic impact. How much of that is actually finding its way back into the very club that made that happen at Leigh? And that's the challenge we have to get right.

"You know, I keep getting told we shouldn't build a club on away support. I keep having that kind of thrown into discussions. And that's entirely right.

"But at the moment, there's an imbalance because you know full well that British supporters will go en masse into France, whether that's the Championship club who is going to Toulouse or the Super League club who is going to Catalan. But the reverse doesn't happen.

"So we have to find a way to work to the benefit of both the British game and the French game."

It’s also bs! HKR took 1800 other week and it was a record. No way in world Leigh took anywhere near 4000!

the irony is hkr‘s biggest crowd this year, and stadium record, was v dragons as we didn’t have to allocate any away seats and could sell them all to our own fans!

Tbf Perpignan is like australia, mostly just good for the sunshine.
as you’ve never been to Perpignan or hull you are speaking out your aris as usual.

I know as much about Hull as you do about Sydney … it takes longer than 20 minutes to get from Cronulla to Penrith on the train ..
