I know I could ring the club but a one off does not get them very far. They would need a policy to go to all schools in Barnsley or at least the ones on the Wakefield side if they thought it was cost effective. I am not having a go at the club. It is a business decision to be made by them. They only have so much money to spend and so much time. Both my kids are in the Junior Wildcats which is great and they are looking forward to Diversity performing at Belle Vue. If they have not go the money to target Barnsley that's OK by me but I hope they do in the future.

To be honest with you I would imagine they mainly concentrate on schools in Wakey but if you do ring them or someone from the school does then get other schools involved or pass on numbers to those that come and spread the word. It's easy to say the club should be doing this but for whatever reason they are not so give them a nudge in the right direction!

have you got some positive publicity then

Yes but we don't publicise it. Do keep up at the back...

I thought TRB would have been tempted by this thread by now. Our ability not to generate positive publicity is his pet hate.

I don't think TRB has posted since Friday, has anyone dredged the canal?

I'm here.



Just had a crap day Friday - not just on the pitch!

things aren't that bad

The majority of folk in Barnsley are more football mad than the wiganers are about RL...it might not pay dividends to flood the barnsley area with rugby league adverts.

Can't hurt though, particularly during the football off season (if there is such a thing!). Even if only 1000 take up any offers its worth it.

then next season lets get a home game out there, £10 in worth promoting

for the huddersfield game t'other week, the giants ran a "friends of the emergency services'' deal...whereby if you work for the emg services in any capacity and bought your ticket prior to the game, upon production of you ID card, they gave 50% off the ticket price....



something we could possibly consider...
