I'm sure that crowds like this will mean that the Bulls have to spend less on player recruitment,Hood said last year that the club was losing money on staging games at odsal,this seasons attendances are likely to be even lower,so i would start to worry if i was you

Got past worrying, Given up.
More seriously though there was not a lot of comment around today and I think this is worrying. People are now past caring and it won't be long before they stop coming altogether.

Maybe one reason for the poor attendances is due to the fact that if you are playing bad, losing and not getting any points you wont make it into the playoffs and therefore this season is a waste of time, and your games are pointless, seeing as how the only thing you are playing for is pride. Due to the fact that your competition (So Called) does not mean relegation. hence nothing to do other than play with pride, which according to quite a few previous posts over the last few weeks suggest that the players don't even play for that.
Just a thought !!!!!!

That is why I cannot understand your club voting for the franchise system.
What is in it for you when such as London, Celts Cats then next time probably Tolouse are playing at your place .All those teams you play with no show fans surely must affect your crowd?

And a very poor troll considering your teams loss and by that amount today.

Quote: Ferocious Aardvark "Why worry? I mean thanks for the concern an' all, but you're a Leeds fan aren't you?'"

As a rugby league fan I think it is acceptable to worry when a team who were once considered to have embraced Super League more than any other is falling well short of a 5 figure crowd. Its worrying because it may happen to any other successful side that goes through a re-building stage.

Here are my suggestions for the decline anyway;

1) Lack of player nicknames
2) Lack of impressive cars in the parade
3) Lack of Boney M

And what happened to carrying Bullman around on a float?

Bullmania appealed mostly to fairweather fans, our loyal fans number roughly in the seven thousand and something that turned up today. And im not going to claim that im some sort of bona fide loyal supporter because im not, ive only just got into RL over the last couple of years. Targetting families is a great strategy to an extent, but do they all turn up when the results are going against them and the weather is bad?

No club should rely on away support coming to make them viable, you have to worry about what you have control over and what you can influence.

Surely not, the people can't possibly stop coming to see The People's Team

I was standing with about 40 on the terrace next to the stand, there were a few dotted around in the stand and a group up on the Coral Stand...all in all about a hundred at most. Mind you it's the best 500 mile round trip I've had thanks!! icon_biggrin.gif

Yep, not only that we brought a new recruit today, that's 5 we've added in the last 6 years. It's the mard ar$e singles who settle for an afternoon down the pub or a snore on the sofa cos they can't be bothered making the effort. A curse on you single folk, why can't you go n' get hitched and have some kids, up our attendances, do the decent thing.

Families are not the problem, but the lack of a decent stadium, taking people for granted and woeful home performances might have something to do with it.

Catalans had the third highest attendance in SL (more than Cas Leeds), Toulouse easily the highest in the championship. No doubt boosted by thousands of travelling North-Westerners. What we need is more M62 teams.
