Not been for Years ........... Can't stand The RFL since the Shudersfield and GatesHull Fiasco.......

The club are poor when it comes to trying to target new fans, have been for a long time they could do a lot better. We win a cup and what do we do with it? A half hearted 'lap of honour' at the match yesterday, what about using it in town on Saturday down the Woolshops and give out some kids tickets?
Its like the U23s games, they sometimes don't even get a mention on the club website so not many know there is a game even on.
Marketing is focused on the usual suspects the existing fanbase, the club rely on that far too much. I know the club don't have many staff and some are volunteers but other clubs seem to do better with even less resources like Sheffield for example, plus when we raise our concerns we get told to shut up!
What about using the link with Calderdale College letting students in for half price or something (I know they are off for the summer) but during term time, why not do like Huddersfield did have a stall at the Lloyds Bank reception on Trinity Road giving out half price tickets?
New fans are your future if 20% get hooked they will be come regulars who will spread the word to other new people.

My biggest criticism is of the online shop. Take a look. It consists of home and away shirts, 2 team pictures and a calendar.

Is this really the best we can do because, if so, we would be better not bothering at all because it is not a good advert for the club at all.

Reactive Media are brilliant at reaching our own fan base but what we need is to make our Club much more an important part of the Town like it used to be.We need more of a prescence in the town especially when we win things like the cup last week there are many things now that people can do to spend their money on these days how do we encourage them to try rugby league?
I think targeting a specific match and going into the Town Centre and supermarkets on an open top bus would be a brilliant idea I know the players are part time but most of them I am sure would be proud to do something like this.

I was pretty peed off on Sunday, youngest son stayed behind to see cup being shown and the only way I can describe what happended was pathetic. Make the most of thses opportunities otherwise the young kids won't want to come and watc. The tension/excitement had been built by a great get out of jail result and then parading the trophy properly would have given the young kids a great memory.

The trophy parade was never a good idea. The players were knackered, last thing they had was energy to make a proper job of it.
