Well. It is. It’s quite clear that a lot of the antipathy towards Toronto comes from fans of clubs that have dominated on or off the pitch by Toronto.

Surely you’d want them to do well and succeed? Like Salford? Surely no-one wants any club to fail do they?

If (for example) Castleford had signed SBW, it would have been a headline for a day, maybe.

Could be worse. Their owner could make fun of another team going bust months before his own team did.

It will have a great crowd, not only with the thousands of Canadian fans and the thousands of French fans making the trip, but also with the tens of thousands of British fans wanting to be part of history, especially given the likely presence of Sonny Bill Williams.
