Quote: Scarey71 "New clubs have emerged (and allow me to stretch the point a little), Crusaders, Broncos, Toulouse, Wolfpack, Catalans....all the next big thing and great 'for the expansion of the game' just with two tiny flaws

1) They will supply nothing in terms of revenues generated through their away support and
2) owing to their lack of travelling fans the generate little revenues for the clubs they visit.

Now i realise that technically speaking that's only one flaw but it's such a big one I thought it was worth mentioning twice... It's up to clubs to sort out their own finances and they should do so based on their own support. Visitors are an unquantifiable, and quite minor (especially in our division), addition to gate receipts but certainly shouldn't be something any club relies on for basic income.

That is true but doesn't negate the fact FC want KR back and Leeds want us back simply for that reason alone.

Big crowds generate money and, as mentioned above, atmosphere. It's no coincidence people turn up for Halifax (or Leeds back in the day icon_cry.gif ) ... there's a buzz there that just doesn't happen with London etc. How strange is it when London score and the there is not a murmur?

So it's my suggestion that no away crowds have an additional quantifiable and detrimental impact on home support attendance and so money through the tills.

AOB was desperate to come to us but we said no thanks.

Quote: Bullseye "Disagree GFB. Who was the last "big" club to emerge since Bradford?

Trouble is that fans and club owners often can't see beyond their own self interest and parochialism. Rivalry trumps sober judgement. I'm sure our demise has delighted a lot of Fax fans but that delight will be short lived. Unless fans and clubs see the bigger picture we'll see more clubs go to the wall and the game become more irrelevant to the wider sporting world.'"


Personally I don't take any delight in seeing any club struggle including the Bulls; as we have been there before ourselves - the RFL cause alot of the problems the game have like when we won the 2010 GF at this level took a bit of the shine off because there was no automatic promotion and the current 'restructure' and handling of it is poor - I think RFL want a structure here like they have in NRL - where the teams outside the top flight are merely feeder clubs and Dual Reg is the start of this - clubs like Fax , Bradford and Fev etc are better than to exist like that would you want watch someones B Team??

Look at Football as well - Bradford City and FC Halifax Town know what their league structure is , they know there is a clear and uncomplicated system of promotion (and relegation) can you imagine the FA deciding to restructure the leagues right before the business end of the season - RL is becoming Lions Led by Donkeys.....

you can understand his desire, he was Faxed when he left us so needs a rest. if you averaged out his training and playing time as a part timer with the time he spent playing for us it would start to come down towards your average hookers playing time. But not by much.

and he needs a bit more time for the superglue holding his head on his shoulders to set after the 2 high tackles a game usually in the first five minutes that the officials either did not or chose not to see...
