| There is enough rugby league fans to make this a success, whether we do is the concern. Regarding twitter, Leeds have 42,000 followers, England RL have 20,000, rlwc 12,000

Why post this on GF day? Standard rah rah anti-RL propaganda. Get behind your sport.

A quick visit to the RLWC Ticket sales thread shows there has been a sudden rush on tickets and there are only 25% of the odd numbered seats in the blue section of the middle tier in the Orange zone of those originally released for sale left.....
Seriously, I do the telegraph crossword daily and it's easier to decipher than some of the Press Releases coming out of RLWC2013 HQ

| RWC 2015 has well over 180k fans on FB and is 2 years away, RLWC has 22k and is 20 days away. Why is this?

Yeah....RFU are ting themselves over the SL GF which will be watched by 300,000 on Pay TV and the RLWC 2013 which by all accounts has managed to sell only 56% of its target of 500,000 tickets, even with a lot of said tickets being as cheap as £7.50 a pop
Since they dropped the shamateur status of Union for full on Professionalism 18 years ago, the RFU and other European Unions haven't had to give RL a second thought......whereas their club games used to get a couple of thousand in attendance and Internationals were their lifeblood, they now have a domestic and international club comp that averages more than it's old professional rival and the series of FRIENDLY internationals on at the same time will attract crowds that the RFL could only dream of.....
...and you think a bit about how little is known about the RLWC or that it is even on is Rah Propaganda
...the biggest threat to RL is RL fans themselves.....£7.50 a ticket and still they are struggling

Some adult tickets for this World Cup were priced at £5 using the half price promo code 100days and 50days.

| whilst there are some valid points in the article (the marketing has been terrible so far, and social media could be more heavily exploited) i find it a bit ironic that a newspaper which gives league a quarter of a page every weekend if lucky and union 3 to 4 pages can harp on about the popularity of union over league. its as if they don't realise the newspapers are a major part of the problem

The article is pretty much 100% on the money....

Why do the broadsheet/serious newspapers give Union 3 or 4 pages and League only a quarter? Is it a massive conspiracy by the RFU or is it more of a case of the editors actually printing what the readership want?
Here's an article from 2008......the torygraph no less.
[urlhttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/rugbyleague/3259506/Rugby-League-World-Cup-Englands-match-full-blood-guts-and-skill.html[/url.there are plenty of journalists out there who need to be regularly engaged by the RFL.....the RFL still think it's all about sticking posts in the ground and announcing a KO time.

| The fact the sports journo starts off with how he should know about it but stumbled across it kind of gives you a good indication of his abilities as a sports writer and/or his right wing rugger leaning. He's paid to knwo about sports yet seems quite ignorant to this particular sport.
