As for the Invisible Man, that's anybody's guess.

I went to a school in Alwoodley and several of my frieds are good rhinos fans. Trouble is that most of us have moved away from the city, maybe thats where the class element comes in

Same here.

Also, while there were quite a few Jewish kids who supported Leeds RLFC as was, there were many, many more who didn't express any interest in sport whatsoever.

Not only that... but those 12,000 don't walk around dressed in full gear all the time.

I'm a season ticket holder and attend 90% of away matches. I don't own a replica shirt. I have a zippy hoody which I'll wear but only to matches, and even then if it's too hot for a hoody I'll just wear whatever t-shirt I happened to put on that morning.

I have no car stickers either.

Sorry for generalising here (or sounding snobby) but... perhaps if it appears there's more fans in the more working class areas it's because the more working class folk are more likely to have the visual signifier that they're a fan.

I mean this...

doesn't mean there's not as many fans, I just suggest anyone choosing to live in Alwoodley isn't the sort of person to do their shopping in a replica kit.

Wayne Rooney’s a Leeds Rhinos fan too. But I doubt he gets to many Leeds Rhinos games.

Wonder where Ray is?

Depends who's got the login this week.

I often wear one of my several hundred Rhinos shirts, hoodies, jackets, shorts, joggers, scarves etc. My car has a Rhinos number plate and a couple of stickers.

I hadn't realised that the British class structure was measured in this way but by your criteria I am most unquestionably working class.

Well said. I've never worn a replica Leeds Rhinos shirt in my entire life and wouldn't be seen dead in one. I regard it all as gear worn by those who can't afford Burberry or Stone Island.

Didn't have you pegged as a Burberry kind of guy but... now thinking about it...

Sorry if you've taken offence...

The OP implied that Alwoodley (etc) doesn't have as many fans, based purely on the fact he doesn't see as many kits/stickers whilst driving about the area.

My point (valid point), is that it's safe to assume there are other reasons why the kits/stickers aren't on show in these areas, and it isn't just purely because there are less fans. All rules have exceptions, but a stereotype is usually a stereotype for a reason.

Only if his converted to the one true faith but i reckon hell be a muslin.




Well end up with 20 wingers but will never get a halfback


Its white workingclass men that always have been the backbone of the suport but you probably arent allowed to say that nowdays.

sooner we leave the EU the better I say.
