this isn't a dig at the club, just curious, but how much do each club get from sky/superleague? does it differ depending on how much your on sky etc?

I know sarcasm generally doesn't translate well over the internet, but I did put a wink. Nevermind, eh?

all clubs get an equal share, the problem is the more you are on TV the more money you can get in through advertisements in the ground, so in reality some clubs do get more than others. the other problem with Sky is just how many people watch if for example the City v United game about 400,000 watched on Sky, and 8m for second leg on BBC, from this I would gather that less than 20,000 watch Rugby League on Sky, which could be a problem with the new contract, they may pay less.

in response to the poster who talked about viewing the accounts,



The last accounts at companies house were for the financial year apr 08- apr 09. Which takes in a large portion of the National League season.



As a Salford City Reds is a Private Limited company and shares are only available to buy directly from other shareholders or if a share issue is created by the board, and not from brokers. may i ask How I can buy shares to have access to this information.

The day you do any form of thinking will be a momentous occasion for the human race.



Run along and be John from Salford some place else.

You're guestimates are some way out. Below is from BARB. 282,000 for Crusaders v Leeds.

If you want to see the accounts you don't need shares, they cost a couple of quid from companies house.

The Grand Final scooped 435,000.

Add the number that were at OT and that may suggest we have around 0.5m 'active' RL fans in this country of almost 60m.



Would be interesting to see what a 'big' Union game got?

Great figures especially as nine out of the top ten are football, what happened to the guinness premiership/heineken cup ?
