    How many viewers does the average RL game get on sky and how does this compare
    to other sports (excluding football as that’s in a league of its own)? I know the answer, I’m just curious if you do.

    You were not hoping for a serious well researched answer I hope?

    Though I do have a better understanding of the vagaries of the RL fixture computer/bloke with pencil, paper and large eraser.

    Don't write off its appeal compared to football. I am sure rugby league games will attract as many as the Women's Super League in football.

    I think most games you could fit the viewers into Old Trafford.

    Largest figures seem to be for Wigan v Saints, which is strange seeing as the Hull derby is the biggest game in the universe.

    You can believe what you choose, it's irrelevant anyway, and has all been done before.

    No surprise as Wigan v Saints get larger crowds than the biggest Derby inthe universe and everywhere else. Not once has it been a sell out at the KC.

    That's what you get when you live on the wrong side of a divided city where the residents don't eat bacon.

    Looking at the article in the HDM life in Hull must be tough if that is what a 29 year old looks like.<laugh>

    How can red and whites live in the black and white part of the divided city? I though they couldn't pass over the bridge into the dark side, go to the KC or Hull Fair. At least according to some over wrought people who write and phone into the media.

    Don't let's forget most families are split down the middle and have black and whites, and red and whites can co exist.

    Both spouses probably have black and white family members who live nearby and give them a croggy to the game while eating chip spice.

    And have never missed a game and get misty eyed talking about 50,000 crowds at the Boulevard and Craven Park.
