| Quote Hedgehog King="Hedgehog King"The attendances aren't key but they do reflect spending power. London's income is very small and this means that for them to flex their wallet, they need a very generous backer. Fev have higher income and lower costs, their backer doesn't need to be quite so generous.
I think for me the key is that non-SL clubs continue to dream the dream. In inviting an unfashionable club like Fev into the top ranks (even if they don't last very long), we allow fans of other unfashionable clubs to buy into the idea that their club might also do the same. Something that is vital for the health of the game.'"
featherstone Rovers are 1 of the most famous clubs in the country sunshine, all us as fans want is the RFL to finally respect there own respect and diversity campaigns and treat all clubs fairly and stop the geographical discrimination, the fact we are a small town should be irrelevant we have and will earn the right to play in the top flight something london never have

I think you need to get the chip off your shoulder. And is this the Featherstone Rovers, one of the most famous clubs in the country, that had to re-name their stadium after a Radio 1 DJ to get more attention? Give us a break. No one cares on this board.

It may be a myth that the RFL have done hundreds of favours for Broncos but it is undeniable that geography got London into SL in the first place. I'm not sure what else you could call that.

Advertising your games on national radio for free? I listened to the radio 1 DJ while he was on the radio, he must of mentioned it about 3 times, I'd hardly say it was advertising your games, but fine.
You really need to look into the story of our club, as yourself, just like others have fallen into the whole 'Broncos have been handed everything on a plate' line, as it is incorrect. We might of been put into SL back in 96, but since then we've had pretty much zero help from the RFL that other clubs haven't also received. London is still here because we have a sugar daddy that is putting his own money into the club year upon year, that's doing it the hard way. Again, I think you need to take that chip off your shoulder.

But the whole problem of RL in this country is that it is stuck in 3 northern counties. It cannot attract sponsors or media partners with that portfolio. If you don't recognise it as a problem your are doomed to suffer because of it.
I have no beef with Rovers, they are a great club and it is a great RL village, but the game will die if it shrinks into its own comfort blanket.
