So the Betfred Championship Grand Final was watched at 500 million homes. Crikey.
I guess that's not what they're actually saying.

yeah i guess it means it had the potential to be watched in those number of homes. just like having it on one bbc channel over here dosn't mean 60 million peolle are suddenly going to watch the sport

Hopefully we will get a summer fixture actually in Toronto. I can see the logistics being tricky for them early season although the Buffalo Bill's play outdoors in the winter. I wonder if they asked the Bluejays if they can use the Rogers centre for a couple of games

You watch we will probably get Rovers away on the thursday night after travelling there!

Unless it's an "on the road game". Home games in first couple of months of the season are to be played somewhere else, until the weather improves. So much for being a rugby league supporter.

Hull will play Toronto on the road in Hong Kong, supporters are advised umbrellas, and Radders face masks will not be permitted.

Old faithful may be sang, but only if it’s the Mandarin version.

3 teams play Toronto away twice (we're not one of them), so it would make sense for one of those fixtures to be early season. Having said that, none of this makes sense.

Can you imagine the powers that be actually thinking about that?

Not strictly the case if they play 2 or 3 consecutive away games as has been suggested.
