we'll help out - could be heading you way

Or you could have Cats

We're not reliant on away support, although it's good to get a few more pennies into the bank when the likes of Bradford or HKR come to town. The main problem for the likes of Fax next year is having (possibly/probably) 3 games in another country (Toulouse, Catalans and Toronto), plus a trip down to London. Tough on players who have other jobs, tough on supporters who like to go to every game, and probably tough from a financial perspective unless the RFL are covering all the expenses for those away games.

...other than that, games against teams with next to zero away support can be a bit of a damp squib. Unless the home team really puts on a performance, the lack of an away team support to generate some atmosphere can result in games feeling very flat. We've played fantastic against some teams, put 40 points past them, but walked out of the ground feeling deflated - for sport to be enjoyable you need a good opponent, and either a massive home crowd or less numbers but with some friendly and noisy rivalry between them.

I find crowds distracting.

Out of touch.

The real joke is the greedy Super League clubs that can't cope with the pressure / financial challenges of Super League and are the first to moan about crowds being down and if they can't cope they should drop down to something more suitable instead of proposing to rob the rest to pay for their shortfall.
They don't want the Championship clubs to aspire to anything other than serve their selfish agenda such as another round of closed shop RFL favorites as will be proven when the changes are announced for 2019.

Your assessment is 100% correct faxcar

Well said Faxcar. Hit the nail on the head.

Apart from it not being any sort of joke sadly.

Agreed.

Also it is fundamentally clear that the RFL consider teams like Fax being also-rans. Of the local sides even, I get the feeling that nobody has anything really positive to say about us - maybe apart from the Warrington game on TV . They would want Fev up over us clearly and if they could have London too they would be bubbling over!

Our defence has been outstanding this year - particularly at Wire and on TV too! If we could find/nurture a couple of game-breakers / line breakers, we could push for the MPG all by ourselves next year, again ALL odds!
