Rugby League is a great sport to watch but not so great to bank role and make a success of, this year it's the Eagles in a bit of a hole, next year who knows it could be anyone including Fax.'"
Yer but is it all worth it when there is obviously no appetite for RL in Sheffield it proved that after winning the Cup in 1998 (I was there it was great) in the biggest cup Final upset ever yet it added hardly any extra fans on their gates the year after!
For me whilst it is not all about how many fans you have at least well supported teams have a lot of people who actually want them to be here!
Sheffield add nothing to our game off the field come on they don't have many fans for home games and have virtually no support away!
I hope they carry on but when a good team like they have had recently get hardly anybody turning up to watch them why bother as at the end of the day expanding the game is all about getting more people to watch RL is it not or am I missing something????

| Don't try to run before you can walk. Sheffield went fulltime too soon and as a consequence are now paying the price. You cannot solely rely on benefactors and false promises as we have found out in past. Too many of their good players left when they went fulltime. Would they have been in a better position if they stayed part time. I would say yes.
Sheffield assembled practically a new team, which takes time to gel. By the look of the team they have assembled its no better than the PT team of last season.
Like people have mentioned the support for Rugby League is not there in a predominately football supported city.
We are going down the right route of developing youth with reserve setup before going full time.

| Ive had a look and so far Sheffield's biggest home attendance was when we played them. I thought the Dulls would have taken more. Perhaps the Bradford faithful don't like to travel

Manningham had a big soccer game (they lost) on that night, didn't they ? Just as well, really, we can't cope with a lot of folk at the SHU ground.

We're still struggling to crawl at the moment.

YOU CAN LEARN FROM THE PAST BUT NOT RELIVE IT.YOU CAN HOPE FOR THE FUTURE BUT CAN NEVER BE SURE THERE WILL BE ONE.: |

| I`m sure I read today that a statement was released by Sheffield saying they had dispensed with Mitch Sringers services with immediate effect .I can`t find it now though .

| Club stalwart was stringer, Ive heard he's on his way to York, whether that comes off or not I dont know.
Apparently he hasn't played for Sheffield since losing the captaincy.
What is becoming apparent to those on the outside, is there are a lot of issues at Sheffield, Big financial backer withdrawing, Chairman "gifting" money to the club to see the season through, chairman also resigning, Gone full time and results not what were expected (to be fair London were garbage last season and now they're flying, maybe it needs time), 3rd or 4th home venue in as many years.
Sheffield is a football city, 2 massive sides who would easily get 40000 each week if both got to the premier league, if there's people happy to throw money at Sheffield Eagles then that's their personal choice, but even after a few relatively successful years interest hasn't picked up. And sadly, never will

Take your point but, actually, Bramall Lane isn't that big.
