.......im gonna say a big fat resounding NO.........you know why..........because if there was someone...........they'd be sponsoring Quinsa by now!

Or does the obvious nature of your question blind you from its obvious answer!

Just to point out that Leeds, arguably the biggest RL club, are also sponsored by a university.

As an aside I just find it sadly disappointing that any announcement from the club seems to be met immediately with negatives. It happens with absolutely everything, even recently a printing error by the Castleford programme printers which prior to the explanation was immediately blamed, without any foundation, on the club staff!

Of course there are things to moan about but sometimes some initial consideration of events will answer some of the concerns. For example re St Mary's sponsorship I don't believe we yet know the full details of the deal so how do we know it's bad deal?

There have been plenty of things that have been met by positive responses lately.

Our marketing is cr*p but we have no money to put into it, so i see no problem with this tie up with St Mary's. As long as they've covered all our costs and a bit more everyone's a winner.

We have 2 Unis sponsoring teams
A northern Car dealership
A big brand in wales
And local businesses

The St Marys tie-up is 'norm'


Who is this other Uni that is a main shirt sponsor? I know of Huddersfield, no others?

You stated that the majority of sponsors are "small scale players".

Wigans sponsor is not JJB btw, its Mecca Bingo, but I suppose they are a small local business too? Vesta's turn over billions (literally). P & O? Never heard of them. Parasol turned over £300m last year.

I don't see what the fuss is about. Harlequins get the same fans turn up week in week out. We don't have a pool of 20,000 fans of which only 3,000 turn up for different games, it's the same 2500 and 500 away fans, so why would a company sponsor our shirt? They'd get just as much exposure with an advertising board in the ground!

To tie up with a local uni is excellent for us.

Not that we ever play away, are on Sky or are featured in newspapers and magazines.

Sarcasm helps keep you from telling people what you really think of them.

After reading these boards for years I came to my first game on Sunday and thought it was great. I will be back on Saturday. I have to say it was all the negative comments from people like Lister that put me off. Why does he persist in this. What is his problem. Why does he berate everything the club does as a negative. This is good news and would have taken a massive amount of work I doubt it dropped in their lap. Why don't the club get a pat on the back for a job well done. Don't drive potential fans away with constant moaning and negativity.

Didn't gat an answer when I asked Radford how much he paid Stokes to save his job.

I think a trick has been missed in that if we weren't going to get a "major" sponsor then the charity idea would have given the club great publicity and PR - particularly a national london based charity i.e. Great Ormond Street Hospital.
