The future of the game is in the balance and after weeks of him being silent after the Academy debacle here we have Mr Rimmers sometimes convoluted view of where we are going, how we are doing it and where we will get to ....eventually !!!!!His comments are meant to persuade us that the game has a bright future if he is leading it but there is nothing there at all to indicate this is the case.
Quite frankly, for me its another obscure and imperfect vision of what is the reality of the situation. The RFL have been trying to change the game for years and yet we flounder from one initiative, to another without any sort of upward progress. Remember Mr Rimmer trying to explain away why Cas and Rovers were being chucked out of the Academy revamp when both were producing young players in a game starved of them? I think what we need first and foremost is a big shake up at the very to of the RFL, some new brooms and new ideas have a read and see what you think!
After reading that I have to be honest and say if Rimmer is supposedly trying to assure people the game is in good hands etc then he is failing.Unfortunately until the RFL take their blinkers off and accept that for the sport to develop, grow and compete in the sporting world for media coverage, sponsorship etc they have to invest people or enterprises (from outside their control umbrella) that have the qualities, qualifications and experience of doing so. They also need to do proper detailed market surveys of the fan bases in SL, Championship and League one and also the community leagues etc. Failure to do this just means the sport will continue with knee jerk reactions which simply paper over the cracks. We are reliant on the money from a company that is a subscription TV service which limits the coverage of the game. Not only that the product offered by SKY is pretty poor as there are no options for full live replays, extended highlights or weekly round up programs its basically a couple of live games a week and that it.
As you say a clear out at the top of the game is very much needed as the likes of Rimmer simply exudes no confidence and his excuse of being out the spot light at a time when the sport needed him to be seen and seen doing is quite honesty pathetic. All he's done when the going got tough was go and hide.
Its just sounds like more and more guess work rather than based on any real hard credible or tangible facts to formulate a proper long term plan of action. So in affect instead of stopping the fires before they start they will just simply continue to fight fires that are already smouldering with nothing more than a water pistol.
