@OutOnTheFull22 Can’t understand why no-one is talking about Walters for England

@DominyClements @GuyLambertUK @AnthonyTeasdale Who was that?

@maceycx No attempt to wrap. That’s 3 points, 5 if he appeals.

@KieranMaguire So wages as a percentage of revenue is 64% in the PL and 102% in league one. With revenue c. 29 times greater in the PL too.

We all complain about ESL, yet this is playing out in front of us.

Time to stop calling it a pyramid if you’ve abandoned the foundations.

@chrisholme1983 It’ll be spent on covering existing losses I would imagine. Each club averaging £2m a year losses on top of the existing tv deal.

@WarringtonRLFC Never seen him play, but from what everyone is saying - exactly the type of players we all need to be developing and signing for the long term - in the best interests of SL and international rugby. Look forward to seeing him hopefully shine (from a wigan fan)

Billy Boston is a true trailblazer who has contributed hugely to rugby league.

It’s a historic wrong that a sport which is the backbone of many communities has waited so long to receive this honour.

Boston is a legend of the game who overcame prejudice to represent Great Britain and opened the door to a more diverse game.

He has left a truly enduring legacy. The first knighthood in rugby league could not go to a more deserving player.

If you don’t get the hype, that’s fine. There are bands that write better, play better, perform better. That are more inventive, more creative, more reflective. But for working class kids in the mid-90s, #Oasis were ours. And possession is nine tenths of the lore. #oasisreunion

@TheWiganWay Can you name an uncomfortable truth that the game in England has to deal with, so that England can finally start to compete regularly with the aussies?

@CamDonDuncan @WiganWarriorsRL Personally, i think you're missing the point Cameron.
