RFL discovered to be talking bollox [url=http://www.therfl.co.uk/news/article/29472/records-fall-as-first-utilityHERE[/url about the record breaking, smashing all box office records figure of 353,000 viewers tuning into the Wigan V Huddersfield opening SL fixture on Sky Sports 1 on Friday 7th Feb.
The actual viewing figure was 243,000 according to www.barb.co.uk which was beaten by Premier League Darts viewing figures of 284,000 the night before (Thu 6th Feb)

They also told porkies about the viewing figures for the Aviva Premiership game on BT Sport 1 which registered 75,000 viewers according to BARB as opposed to the 65,200 claimed by the RFL.

[uTo summarise the RFL horse earlier this week.....[/u
1. The 353,000 was actually 243,000 which was less than the 251,000 viewers who tuned into the Widnes V Wakey SL opener in 2012.
2. The alleged 38% increase in viewing figures on last season's SL opener was actually 29% (243K v 188K).
3. The alleged extra 288,000 viewers tuning into Super League on 7th Feb which was alleged to be 543% higher than the alleged viewers for the Union game on the much smaller BT Sport subscription base was actually an extra 168,000 which is 324% higher (243K v 75K).
4. I expect the RFL viewing comparison to BDO Darts on Eurosport (A desperate RFL or what? Well, they are hardly going to compare the figures with Premier League Darts for obvious reasons
) are garbage as well since according to BARB, Eurosport haven't reported any viewing figures for that week.
5. RFL Lies, Damned Lies and Statistics by plenty
'"
the 353 is not actually 243.
one is a peak figure and one is an average figure.
chances are all three figures are more than likely right. like i have posted elsewhere.
my take on it is...
353 is obviously the peak figure
299 might be the average from 8pm kickoff till the game finishes
243 is the average from the start of the program (730pm) till the end (10pm)
just on peaks, averages (and how they work) and that city game
man city v chelsea PEAKED WITH 6.01M, The full programme averaged 4.57M

| So the 10th placed viewing figure on Sky Sports 1 for w/e 30th March was 226,000.
How do we know SL didn't pull 225,000, comfortably beating everything apart from football on BT (as it always has and always will). I highly doubt Leeds/Saints pulled less than 151,000 which was the top RU figure.
Yeah, so like you say.. Sky Sports by plenty. Even when they don't make the top 10.
And how come you haven't added 9th & 16th March figures? Do they not suit your agenda?

A quick google search suggests he owns an online Rugby Union store. Who'd have thought it eh!
