Well you at least have the guts to come clean after being called out, I'll give you that...unlike some of the others.
I forgive you.

You should come to Toronto for the game....we are hoping for a large group from Leigh and you will be hosted very well....very well indeed!
These differences between the clubs are of the making of Leigh, we will try to help you guys out but I don't know if some of your people will ever be willing to let the Rowley thing go....its not healthy...time to forgive and forget.

All the best and hope you come to Toronto,

So Toronto get to play all their home games first without any travelling then base themselves in the UK for the rest whilst the others all have to travel across for a single match long distance in these crucial matches that could end up with an SL team on the edge of bankrupcy if they don't perform.

Do you believe this gives Toronto an advantage? League games are one thing, but when promotion and relegation are part of this, is it fair to all teams involved? This isn't an accusation, it is simply asking for your objective opinion.

They have been told and its widely available, by the RFL that should they reach the Middle 8's they will have to play the schedule of fixtures accordingly.

TBH that's all I want to hear. I personally think Toronto may get an advantage playing all home games then based in UK for all away games. I don't care where they are based, they are simply a team in a predominently UK/European league so should stick to the schedule. It's not our fault that they've based themselves in another continent. Yes we have to be mindful where possible, but not to the extent of giving them an advantage in crucial promotion and relegation games where players careers are on the line.

With us almost certainly in the m8s again (one thing we ARE consistant at), I'm betting we'll be the first ever SL team to lose away at Toronto. We're good at rubbish firsts (1st to get relegated in million pound game, 1st to get nilled by a huge margin at Wembley, 1st and only winner of challenge cup plate etc)

That was the deal and we should have an expectation that everyone will abide by it and not start to complain like a bunch of spoiled children (seems to be a problem in Rugby League)....if people had problems with this the time to raise any concerns was much earlier. Toronto has been very flexible here to try and make things work for everyone involved....there is a lot of logistical work that had to be done.

Including Toronto filling the till,
and footing the bill!

Hope that Helps,
