You're on the ball today they have 5 games away through may and start of august, missed that whilst i was looking through the list was realy concentrating on the final rounds.

You know we are doing well when we start looking at other clubs run in's!!

I wouldn't attend all games in a season either because of the reasons you list. I wouldn't particularly care if anyone thought I was less loyal personally.



I don't have a season ticket this season even though I have had in all previous seasons. I decided I wasn't going to mainly because of the uncertainty last year but actually thought to myself how is being a season ticket holder actually an advantage? I will probably see 11 home games (due to holidays)so no price difference - the club still gets the same money, just a little later. If we get to a GF or CC final will I really struggle to get a ticket - doubt it. Do I get something when I buy my 10th/20th/30th consecutive season ticket?



What incentive is there for me to buy a season ticket? My earlier suggestion would work for me but I appreciate it may not be suitable for all.

But cup games, at home, against a club which isn't going to be a big attraction is the perfect vehicle for the marketing dept to hang its hat on. We're not going to get a big crowd, so we can't lose much if we drop prices plus there will be no season ticket holders feeling hard done by 'cos others have got in cheap. Tenner each, and kids under 16 free with shed loads of advertising in the papers and around the city, get 10K in the ground - all we have to do is win it, of course...

I'll be curious to see what the attendances are like if by some miracle there is a home cup fixture. The present base attendance is at about the level they used to drop off to.

I don't think its quite that easy with cup games, though? I have a recollection that gate receipts are pooled or something, that the RFL call the shots, and one reason the club never put on any pre-match entertainment or anything before cup games was because the club received no financial benefit from the game just costs...

Typical, the go ahead strivers once again stifled by the overbearing bureaucracy...

We are far from alone in having concerns about attendances.

You can understand these people being frustrated by such low crowds though[4,200 at Hudds last week? Jesus wept, but it's clearly pointless to mouth off about it; the ones who [ido[/i go probably agree with the sentiments anyway and the ones who don't most likely couldn't care less, and certainly won't be influenced by them.

They come across as rich men phoning the newspaper to talk about how unfair it is that their train set is broken.

In fairness to Davy, his despair looks to be in a letter to their supporters' organisation. Although at least he took the trouble to thank them properly for what was nevertheless a fairly modest sum.
