Wigan Warriors - wiganrugbyfans.com • Re: Eddie Hearn
I would have liked for him to have got involved in someway
But our biggest problem in my view is our relationship with sky and the exclusivity they receive. The BBC get better figures than sky do for rugby league. They are our best bet of getting better national exposure. Why can we not have a Sunday afternoon game on free to air TV??
The argument that clubs don't have the money, imagine if you were trying to sell Wigan rlfc to roman abrhamovich. Hey roman Wigan have just gone up for sale, brilliant he replies where did they finish last year? 2nd but they won the grand final, great he replies but I want to finish first, whose the best j5 players in the world get them and send me the bill.... Ahhh sorry roman we can only spend 1.8m a year on players wages aggg we'll love that then. Those 5 players would put bums on seats increase profile and attract better sponsors and allow us a better negotiation with sky.
Unfortunately the disharmony besween rfl n super league makes it hard for real changes to be made.
