JESUS WEPT HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.

You can’t expect one team to provide all the players for the national team but if the Scottish Irish Italians Lebanese teams etc had players from there own countries they would get hammered by the French there is only 5 countries that actually use there own countries players

Well no, but how do you expect the national team to improve when the flagship French club would rather sign imports in key positions?
