Is this open on any days other than match days?

I know you could book it out for parties and stuff like that but other than that, I don't think it is open.

Said it for a while but does anyone else think they are missing a trick by not opening to show Sky matches on a Friday and Saturday night (when we have a Sunday game)?

50 people down, spend an average of a tenner each = £500 per night (less overheads) and that's before you get started with raffles etc.

Not a bad idea. I would imagine they will when we get the new ground. Look at what they are like in Aus, each club has a bar and a "pokies" room. Basically what we would call an amusement. They are all very much business', unlike the clubs over here that pretty much rely on SKY, gate receipts and sponsorship and the bit they get from merchandise (including replica shirts icon_wink.gif ).

It's not a bad shout, but there are other pubs in town showing the games, you would need some incentive to walk down the Lane I reckon.

Incentive being that money spent will be going to the club. We've already established that people pay over the odds for tat in the club shop purely to give money to the club icon_wink.gif

Or on a Monday/Tuesday night to show our game from the weekend.

been there, done that
Been tried before , at first all those that asked for it turned up, week after week, numbers slowly dwindled until it got a bit of a joke with maybe 10 people turning up, hence they stopped hth

I have lived abroad so I dare say that's why I didn't know about it. Disappointing with that really.

That they did. It was a regular Thursday night thing. I heard the Malt Shovel does show all game's on a Monday night and it pulls quite a few in.

The location can't help tbh. Not many folk are passing WR at any time other than matchdays.

Some more than others, but pretty much every pub in Cas has some kind of Tigers memorabilia on a wall somewhere. I always thought the club would do well to buy an interest in a town centre (or Glasshoughton) bar, theme it properly and then run it as a 7 day operation.

Not the feather apparentley was told the other week that the owner is a leeds fan and has his staff all wear leeds tops on match days, not a great way to attract custom.
