I think it's more of an rl problem than a fax problem, I think the essence of what rl stood for as been removed by greed and removal of hope and jeopardy. I watched the Bradford v cas game today and enjoyed it has a neutral , on the flip side when I went to Wembley to watch fax vs batley I paid little attention to the leigh v hull kr game. Certain clubs seemed to have stagnated regardless, not sure on the stats but attendances seem to be at best levelling off across the board.

[i:1c1s4q3n]Greg Quote. That has always been the big problem, to drop admission the crowds have to go up(I think this is why Fax charged full price for the Cats game as they didn't expect a rise in attendance with cheaper tickets) and as LU mentions the Batley experiment didn't work. Its just so hard to pinpoint one exact reason why people don't attend as it's usually a combination of things. Like a family of 3 or 4 could be paying out maybe around £150 or more for a couple of homes games in a month and that is a lot of money around here where money is tight and there are a lot of other things to do. For some it is simply frustration of how the club has been ran over the years. I couldn't even get rid of cheap tickets for this game for people who have attended regular in the last couple of years, too cold, don't want to watch their team get hammered, fed up with RL in general, these were the gist of reasons I heard. It is hard to know what the answer is but if questions are not asked after that sort of attendance then it might be time to just sack it off. End.

Posts not mentioning posters and not blaming the club for everything at last making sense!!

Batleys 10 quid experiment actually worked with their crowds more than doubling, I've no idea why they didn't follow it through. I'm a mathematical genius and I calculate the optitimum entrance fee as being 12 quid which would create the greatest returns. We need to have someone with the nous to take the club forward. I would still love to know why Kenny resigned saying he did so because he didn't agree with the direction of the club. What direction didn't you agree with Kenny?

If so it looks like they only averaged about 100 or so more on the previous season and then crowds actually went up last year which is strange if it was 2024 that they went back to full price. Its a bit of a catch 22 of offering cheap tickets as they often end up in the hands of people who were going to attend anyway.

Halving the price of admission would require us doubling our attendance which has previously mentioned even when successful our average was 1800 , given there's only 3/4 teams that bring a healthy away following and where in the middle of a financial crisis would be suicide. As regards Lee kenny I have no idea but given he's a marketing man I only remember him arranging a convoy to wakefield which was to be polite one of the stupidest things I've ever heard.
