Don't think we need a trip to Wembley tbh, we just need ac atalyst and if we make the playoffs getting to the QF or the semi of the cc will show we are back amd mean business and that this club is no relation to the dross pelt the past

We couldn't have use some Cup wins and home Cup draws. Statistically we are due around 100 consecutive home ties in the rounds.

Trouble is if the draws are against naff opposition even then we may only get 3K or 4K through the gate - but that's a load better than no games at all.

But you know we will get most away fixtures, sods law.

Also looking at the fixtures Bulls are only on tv twice more, least we should have a good attendance for the home games.

And even though the leeds game is on tv it should still be a very high turnout circa 13k and we have wigan and wire to come, looked at the others not many fans will follow them.

Could also do with as many bulls fans travelling to the away games and buying tickets through the buls to pump in more money.

Wigans runin seems abit suspect final 5 games 4 at home, handy for them least we have 3/5 at home.

probably by prior arrangement to allow them a run of away games first to allow JJB to be reseeded. seem to remember they did this last year or year before as well at end of premier league season for same reason

Quote: Adeybull "Sorry, but IMO in practice a very poor idea mate, once you think it through.

Some of us have to work sometimes on matchdays. Or even, heaven forbid, manage to take a holiday. Or maybe fall ill. Or close family members do. Or have domestic emergencies. Or whatever else. Or have to accommodate partner's or otehr family commitments.

That does not make such people any less loyal fans.

Can see where you are coming from, but IMO would be highly counter-productive as would probably pìss off as many loyal fans as it might incentivise. It certainly would me.'"


I wouldn't attend all games in a season either because of the reasons you list. I wouldn't particularly care if anyone thought I was less loyal personally.

I don't have a season ticket this season even though I have had in all previous seasons. I decided I wasn't going to mainly because of the uncertainty last year but actually thought to myself how is being a season ticket holder actually an advantage? I will probably see 11 home games (due to holidays)so no price difference - the club still gets the same money, just a little later. If we get to a GF or CC final will I really struggle to get a ticket - doubt it. Do I get something when I buy my 10th/20th/30th consecutive season ticket?

What incentive is there for me to buy a season ticket? My earlier suggestion would work for me but I appreciate it may not be suitable for all.

But cup games, at home, against a club which isn't going to be a big attraction is the perfect vehicle for the marketing dept to hang its hat on. We're not going to get a big crowd, so we can't lose much if we drop prices plus there will be no season ticket holders feeling hard done by 'cos others have got in cheap. Tenner each, and kids under 16 free with shed loads of advertising in the papers and around the city, get 10K in the ground - all we have to do is win it, of course...

When my club didn't exist it was still bigger than yours:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_8.jpg



I'll be curious to see what the attendances are like if by some miracle there is a home cup fixture. The present base attendance is at about the level they used to drop off to.

I don't think its quite that easy with cup games, though? I have a recollection that gate receipts are pooled or something, that the RFL call the shots, and one reason the club never put on any pre-match entertainment or anything before cup games was because the club received no financial benefit from the game just costs...

Quote: Ferocious Aardvark "As for chairmen, such as Caisley, berating the citizens for not supporting their club, that's probably the most counter-productive and irritating thing any chairman could ever do. For one, it won't get one single person extra through the gate - so what is the fookin point? For another, why would even an understandably peeved chairman think that if Fred Bloggs isn't coming despite a great team, good atmosphere, succesful results etc., yet he might come if he gets a bollocking in the press? The chairman may [ifeel[/i that way, but if he [isays[/i it, then he is truly a moron.'"


Funnily enough, rlKen Davyrl seems not to share yours (and my) reservations on this subject.

rlHudgell & his palrl are not happy bunnies financially either]

We are far from alone in having concerns about attendances.

You can understand these people being frustrated by such low crowds though[4,200 at Hudds last week? Jesus wept], but it's clearly pointless to mouth off about it; the ones who [ido[/i go probably agree with the sentiments anyway and the ones who don't most likely couldn't care less, and certainly won't be influenced by them.
