A company is to produce diecast models of the Stobart Super League Trucks.

I've put some details on the League Marketplace part of the RLFANS site including prices.

So you can check it out the link is below:

There are 15 to choose from (one for each club and the one of all club captains). If you would like a model just follow the instructions in the link or PM me - I can provide photos of the models directly.



Kind regards

Guess this means we'll finally get to see one

I saw a Cas one on the M25 about 5 weeks ago, it was exhorting the worker drones of the south east to go and support their local team. Most of whom probably idly wondered where Castleford was and if it was some new rugger club before carrying on with their dreary drive.

I spend more time than I like on the M25 and M4 and that's been my sole single spot. What an abberation of a sponsorship deal.

I've seen 2. I think it's a reasonable deal all things considered. I'm sure The Lord God of Marketing - Gutterfax will be here in a minute to correct me on my opinion with a 500 word essay complete with emoticons and a detailed lesson on how they should have done it.

if you're going to give it away probably best to an advertising hoarding company - something that people drive past day after day after day. Probably best not to give it away though - I must confess I dont know what else was on the table. Do I recall a betting firm?

I believe as it wasn't an exclusive deal they could make money from other deals

I think the deal in itself is OK. Let's face it, there wasn't a queue of heavy hitters lined up outside the RFL with their cheque books open. The RFL seem to make money....a few hundred grand from a betting firm is hardly a game changer, whilst billboards/outdoor advertising seem to make a living out of eyeballs seeing ads....

It has become a total joke! a special column each week in one RL weekly for those who have spotted a truck, I am on the motorway a lot and I have Never seen one, then most people who see them think it is an advert for Sky Sports! I suggested doing a deal with the BBC for Blue Peter Badges for those who see a trick! LOL



Like how some of the chairman of clubs are now up in Anger why was this deal ever passed! but they tend to be the clubs who did not even bother to attend the meeting to pass the deal and it was a very close vote.



Nice data to prove a case of course supplied by transport media UK, purely independent of course! when you are in marketing you can Spin anything you want to, come research time at the radio station we always had a nice intro for the news ready something like "The Number One Station in The North West" but we never did quantify what we were the number one for! We all see the backs of buses each and every day and I have had involvement with the commercial advertising sector all my career and it does not make any impression of the choices I may to buy!

Remind us again of how many boards you have sat on and how many of those companies currently pay for a space on our shirts or what % of your euro millions win you would invest in east London.....



The RFL make a profit....the club you say you follow, loses up to 2 million a year......yet you feel comfortable defending the loss maker and attempt to look clever badgering the money maker......



QED.......the defence rests.

Went up and down the A1 to Newcastle last week and saw Leeds, London and Hull.



Maybe I'm just lucky.

Here we go again with the gospel according to Gutteffax, get off your high horse for once, if I had ever had taken your attitude I would never have lasted in my career, yes we debated strongly but None of us ever took the High Ground of forever thinking only I can be right.



The RFL make this big profit! why? because of one deal that Maurice Lindsay signed with BSkyB no other reason, we give away the Super League sponsorship for 100 painted trucks, I have not read any praise in either trade marketing magazines Marketing and Campaign? The Challenge Cup sponsorship is also given away for a pittance these days.



Yes I can't understand why we don't have a shirt sponsor, it is not without trying contacts in London I have spoke to, but it has to be someone who currently would take it as a tax advantage nothing else with the crowds and the success on the pitch, at least with one colleague I tried to sell it their brand which is now in the North would be seen at grounds with larger attendances and in some TV games!



Look at how you come over for once gutterfax, why you feel the need to ridicule anyone else who may say something? why?

I saw the Broncos lorry on the M62 when I was heading to the Widnes game. Jamie on the back doors.
