What was the entrance charge for your game?
It was £15 at Leeds

Which was £2 cheaper than boxing day for those who are interested.

To those moaning about certain Leeds fans not turning up for Diskins testimonial I have this to say to you. Leeds Rhinos tend to get 15 thousand plus fans average on a gate during the regular season. Most of them fans are wearing the latest teams home shirt and have probably bough half a dozen stuff in the past from the club shop. No doubt a lot of Rhinos fans have sky TV also.

This all helps towards Matt Diskin have a career that he loves. We’ve shown that we appreciate over the years like that by attending his teams games and buying his teams merchandise. We don’t need to turn up for his so called testimonial game and we don’t need to be ashamed for not going.

Rugby league is after all entertainment and for some of us attending every game just isn’t entertaining anymore. Try and look at that side in future when you criticise an attendance.

You was going so well until the final line.

£15 at KC also, £5 for Juniors

I thought you still used imperial over there?

no its changed over this for this season, you should have seen the queues at the turnstyles whilst people tried to work it all out

guess that only leaves cas operating imperial now

That is when they're not trading in livestock or sexual favours.

circa 6k for a testimonial is par for the course, its what all the other testimonials at Leeds in recent years have attracted for what is, in the majority of supporters eyes, a non-event.

I don't buy into all the tosh about "great ambassador" or "faithful servant", Matt Diskin is a nice lad' always takes time to speak to anyone and everyone, is very polite, nice to his mum and uses a knife and fork properly at all of the testimonial dinners that I've been to where he's sat at our table.

Having said that he's earned a good living (and still has a long way to go) doing something that he'd do for free, something that the vast majority of those who follow the sport can never say about themselves, he's a lucky lad and personally I don't feel an overwhelming urge to throw £15 of my already very stretched household budget into a testimonial fund for him, I've worked since 1974 and no fekker has ever suggested giving me £150k tax free lump sum anytime soon, in fact its looking like I'm going to have to work till I drop at this rate

Given Leeds will have 2 play-off games a grand final (Plus X's) and WCC more than the hull clubs, maybe the punters were saving money?

What makes you think they have to be two distinct commodities?

Here here. These players earn a LOT more money than the vast majority of people who spend their hard earned money with the Rhinos in various ways.

confident are'nt you about the play off's and final this year ?! let's hope that does'nt come back to haunt you !! do not underestimate fc this year !!

I never under estimate hull, I just watch them blow up every year, personally i would like to see them up there and bring something different, the game needs a strong hull, after agar gets the boot in march it might happen.
