Either just above or just below yours depends which season. One of your fans needed responding to, i responded.

Is there something I should know? What should I be worried about?
I must admit to feeling a little complacent given that we remain the best supported team in the competition and are on route to, hopefully, an unprecedented 3rd consecutive Grand Final win.
So what is this bomb shell that awaits me if I have more to worry about than fans of the Bulls?

The decline in numbers is a worry though, especially as it is the first time we've topped the league since 2004.

I dont think you quite understand, what is there to worry about? Pay attention the word ' =redWorry'
Leeds have the best attendance in the league. Argubaly the best business set-up in SL with an onsite Cafe Bar, Hotel, Sister club etc. Also along with the best supported club brings extra merchandising and bigger sponsorship deals. Im not boasting but I think Leeds are in a much much stronger position than most other SL teams.

I don't care about all these fringe benefits until you back their value up with some figures. I'd imagine making money on the gate is still one of the club's biggest income streams, and a 7.45% decline in a period when the product on the field is theoretically the best in the competition is a worry for me. I'm sure GH & co don't share your cavalier attitude about a loss in revenue.

While I agree with the positive comments from your fellow Leeds supporters about their club, as a Bradford supporter I would have made remarkably similar positive comments in 2004. We'd just won everything, I believe that we were still the best supported club, and the downturn in crowds, though unexpected, didn't seem worth getting too worried about! How wrong we all were.

So why are you losing so many fans then? That must be a worry.

Are you not remotely concerned that even with all your recent success, you are losing more fans than any other club? Where are they going?
Nothing ever lasts forever you know.

I'd imagine their loss in numbers would be down to the capacity decrease in the south stand?

This argument has been nicely debunked in a thread on TotalRL, by our good friend Mat amongst others.
