CMG you turncoat, you clearly still harbour some bitterness towards the Broncos because they turned you down for the marketing job. Move on ;) 500 yesterday when we mauled the Benign Bulldogs :)


"Call Me Gutterfax" aka "Call Me God"wanted the marketing job at London Broncos many years ago. But he was rejected out of hand with a sneering cackle, and then spent the next two years denouncing the man who got the job.

"Call Me Whatever" has never forgiven the Broncos owner David Hughes for the perceived slight and now runs a personal vendetta against the Broncos out of his shack near Wellington, New Zealand.

I suspect Jean we could write something not to dissimilar about you. Replace Wellington with Chorley.

Your suspicions are unfounded and your analogy does not exist. Try to think more clearly. I am sure you can do it if you try.

Here is part of the reason why everyone is excited about the prospects of Toulouse. From the state of the art stadium at Dewsbury, in west Yorkshire:

'Fax fan in Stockport: The jewel in the ring of Manchester

Re: Toulouse returns to top form : Mon Mar 12, 2018 6:28 pm  
Toulouse well positioned to consolidate their top four place by having a week off next week while everyone else plays in the Challenge Cup. I hope their application to be allowed to field 15 players every match also comes off. Good luck to them.

JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.

There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT:

You'd have to be careful how you would market such a game.......if you refer to it as "a battle" nobody would show up :wink:

Unless there is a rule change to accommodate all 3, they wont all gain promotion.
Do you think they are stronger than Catalan, Salford, KR, Huddersfield :CRAZY: :CRAZY:

Unless one of the current SL clubs implode, which could happen, there may be no change come the end of the season.
Salford look a little vulnerable right now and KR aren't quite up to speed but, Huddersfield and Catalan will be ok.

The number of clubs in Super League 2019 is yet to be confirmed. If it’s 14, there is a chance Toronto, London and Toulouse could all gain promotion.

Indeed.....and that would be more accurate then the fictional application for jobs. AFAIK, Gutters never applied for any jobs at the club and was actually only ever on the case of a certain CEO who reduced the club to rubble in his 1,140 day tenure.....I believe that there has only been 1 person with the word marketing in their job title at the club since 2006 and SHE lasted a year.....although he's right about David Hughes, a man who openly admits i the Book A pastel Revolution, that he hasn't a clue how to look after the day to day running of a club.......I mean to say, re-read the bit about the 1 year we had a marketing person in the last 12.

Anywhoooooo, back on thread.
Toulouse have 10 points, the same amount they had from the same games last season with HKR replaced by Leigh.....they are full deserving of 2nd spot and will probably make the 4, but I doubt they'll get more than 1 home win v championship opposition in the qualifiers.
With no trip to Canada and no Challenge Cup games to worry about they have certainly been dealt a favourable hand :mrgreen:

And if Leigh manage to get their season back on track and Fax build on their performance yesterday, then there's a chance that Fev, Leigh and Fax could all gain promotion. Your point is, well, pointless.

Yes the teams in 3rd, 6th and 9th are really likely to all gain promotion.
