It's only three years ago that we played both Halifax and Wakefield at Odsal Stadium in the pre-season.

A quick look at my notes says we had two reasonable gates of 4,448 (vs Halifax) and 4,047 (vs Wakefield).

Quote: sirkeith "When the administrators took over the running of the club, there was £23,431 in the club bank account. The administrators used this money " to cover the costs of the home fixture against London Broncos held on the 8th. July 2012."'"


Peter Hood told me that the cost of opening Odsal was £22,000, hence why he was saying that we would actually lose money on hosting the recent Challenge Cup game game against Doncaster (72-6).

Sounds more realistic than my £70K which I'd obviously mis-remembered.

Probably more like £25,000 now a few years on, but still - if we can get maybe 4-5000 through the gate - quite a decent money earner

I'd imagine to cut costs further, we would only open the Bartercard Terrace and Provident Stand.

As always, I have ordered my new shirt and will most probably get the away kit when it is also released. So, once again, you are wrong.

Two shirts, printed. More than the cost of a season ticket?

Fs! £90+ a shirt? How much do they charge for four letters printed on a shirt?

Ha ha, you seem to be an exceptionally gullible man. So much so that it sometimes appears that you live in a fantasy land rather than reality.

Well, the cost of putting a game on would hardly be very 'commercially sensitive', so I'd say it probably is about right as it sounds reasonable - certainly far more so than the £70k quoted above.

If we take that as the cost of putting on a league game I'd also guess that we can reduce that for a friendly. In any case, surely a pre-season friendly would most likely have a cost sharing arrangement? If not, we've been taking the P out of Dewsbury for years....

Can't see it being £20 either for a friendly, that sort of price would kill the crowd stone dead.

Oh Lord. Another newbie wanting to make a name for themselves.

Dreadful effort.

FWIW I was not aware of the cost of this year's season tickets, hence why I put a question mark at the end of my post.

If Peter Hood was honest about anything then, I concede, it would indeed be a surprise.
