As anyone seen an Eddie Stobart lorry with the Super League advert attached yet?

In the past fortnight I have driven 2600 miles throughout the UK and I have seen over 200 Stobart trucks but not one of them had anything about the SL attached to it.
I think the RFL have unwittingly sponsored Eddie Stobart just think how much media exposure the Stobart name now gets on Sky,BBC,ITV,Radio and the local & national press.

It just highlights the standing of the sport when we can't find a cash sponsor for the Super League.

Yep.

Saw the Rhinos one on the M18 at Armthorpe on Saturday morning just before 11am.

Saw a Salford one on the A1 near Redhouse turn off.

Yes Saturday on the A1 near Ferrybridge. Jon Wilkins and St Helens.

May be wise to keep your eyes open when driving Geoff



Geoff what ever the RFL did I doubt you would be happy .

I travel to Leeds and back everyday and i haven't seen one yet.

Wigan and Sam Tomkins on the M18 12.30PM 20/2/2012.

I would be very happy if they would make rugby league a proper game again instead of five drives and a kick

We have gathered that over the years Geoff.

It has always been about drives and kicks, what has changed is the area where the game is won or lost (floor or standing)

I have driven another 1300 miles around England & Mid Wales this week and I have seen loads of Stobart trucks & at 4-40pm today on the M62 near the Lofthouse interchange I spotted a Stobart Super League truck on the west bound carriageway,its the first one I've seen in 15 working days & almost 3900 miles.
I'm thinking of joining the Eddie Stobarts spotters club.

Popped my Stobart cherry last night!

On our way back to Leeds after the York v Swinton game, we saw the Sam Tomkins truck on the a64 pulling into Murton lorry park at the Livestock Centre.

You've got more chance of spotting a unicorn.

Not really. Plenty have been spotted.

Not by me.

Travelling on the M62 on Saturday night when to my alarm i heard a whining noise.
My first thought was that a wheel bearing was on it's way out ,but then to my relief i saw the Rhino truck on the opposite carriageway with a big picture of Sinfield on it.

Seen many unicorns recently?

Just the one. I'm sure Lord lucan was sat on it.

Interesting comments from Jamie Peacock on this on twitter.

Saying that no one has seen these lorries as they are the trailers which are carrying rocking horse ****.

I was very lucky then.

So seems about as popular decision as Sky's to introduce the margin meter.

Just seen my second lorry. Widnes on the M180/M18 junction 5

And another thing .... what two teams stands out as being pointless in Superleague at the moment?












Yes you guessed it.
[size=30Widnes Vikings and London Broncos[/size.

Now seen my third truck. Hull KR again on the M18/M180 Junction 5. This seems to be the spot to see them.

I've now seen my 4th and 5th trucks. Both were on the M18.

Last night the full super league line up, and today Leeds. Great that these trucks are spreading the message out of the rugby leage heartland!!!!!
