Sky's ongoing obsession with championship GIANTS Leeds

[The Wizard]

On again now against Doncaster, SS1.

Why are they so obsessed with Leeds? The amount of games they are on TV is ridiculous.

Why are 'we' so obsessed with asking this same question 5 times a month?

Not only Championship. Same in RL Superleague. Usual pisstake of those grouped around the TV at my local in St Helens every Friday ' who are Leeds Rhinos playing tonight then ?'

Leeds are a big club. I don't see a problem myself.

Two words - viewing figures...

why dont leeds have a shirt sponsor?

 

[SurreySeagulls]

Like Barcelona before them, being Champions of Europe their brand is big enough not to need a piddling amount of sponsorship. Barcelona sold out eventually leaving the real champions of Europe to lead the way.

Big fan base throughout the country=big club
Sky get bigger viewing figures....Its that simple
It's all about money these days and not league positions etc etc

 

[The Wizard]

Love that defender saying he got the ball, nowhere near... Blatent penalty and it's 1-1.

why dont leeds have a shirt sponsor?

Enterprise Insurance had a deal which was supposed to run until the end of this season, but Leeds are in some sort of legal dispute with them.

Great opportunity for fans to buy a sponsor-less shirt though.

If they were a PROPER big team they would be in the Prem.

When Man City, Newcastle, Liverpool and United were in the second division they were still PROPER big clubs
