People shuddered when Matchroom sports we're rumoured to be interested in our sport. That's our problem the "dont want any of that crap" brigade who think everyone will buy into the sport out of some organic interest.
Matchroom sports made 2 blokes throwing darts at a board appealing to the nation and will make some decent £ off Chisora vs Parker on ppv and it isn't even a title fight.
If not them we need someone willing to market us. Christ we were in the papers more when Koukash was mouthing off and drumming up interest than we are now when one of the future immortals is about to play his first game in SL

Couldn’t agree more. The narrow, defeatist, us against the world mindset is holding back the game. We have chased off new money, yes he was a bit of an idiot, but he kept a club alive that have since been to Old Trafford and Wembley.
We turned our noses up at genuine sport marketers, and complain that the rugby press is union biased.
We’re a minority sport acting like one. We need to open our minds to more.
