Rugby League Gets Big Government Handout





Many rugby league sides will have breathed a massive sigh of relief as the news broke overnight that the government had set aside a sum of £16 million to safeguard the sport through the Coronavirus pandemic.

 

RFL chairman Ralph Rimmer had been petitioning the government for support since the shutdown in mid-March, and Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden said that the government had made the move to ‘protect the entire sport'.

Always plenty of things about which to criticise the RFL but I reckon Rimmer and his team have done pretty well in this case.

Wow if the RFL can get an emergency loan of 16m for the champ, lg1 and community clubs I can’t wait to see what super duper league funding Elstone has secured. As we know they are better off not being held back by RFL and the rest of the lower league scum.

good news. Will need to filter to about 30 clubs. Id still make them work for some of their deficits to strengthen them, the game needs more resillience and bailing them out 100% isnt the answer

Don't hold your breath. I doubt if Elstone has even generated enough money for Super League yet to cover his wages

Fantastic news coming out of Bradford. We've managed to secure £13m of the overall £16m to redevelop Odsal as the national Rugby League stadium. I'm chuffed. We'll all emerge from this with a proper home for the sport.

Fairs fair if Carter, Pearson, Hudgell, Lenaghan and the rest are on their own when they’re divvying up the sky money they should be on their own now. You can’t have it both ways.

It’s just occurred to me, where is Robert Elstone?
