except dispite one bad attendance we are still averaging over 11,000 for home games this year and we've had two attendances that would have exceeded that 12,000.

But lets not let facts get in the way of your trolling, carry on... or should that be jog on?

isn't that what used to happen ??
am sure some dad's danced too after a Robbie Paul try

Back in 1995 I went to Northern games with a couple of mates. By 1999 there were 12 or 13 in our group. Now we're down to 5.

None of those that have stopped going have done so because we've stopped winning cups. A couple were kids who were attracted to bullmania, grew up and developed other interests as teenagers do. The rest have stopped going due to moving out of the area, job or family commitments. One, sadly, died.

I'm sure all clubs lose fans for these reasons. Our problem is probably that we aren't replacing those people with new fans. And we wont do that until there is the return of the feelgood factor.

That's about right. Wire had a load of quite fetching young ladies handing out those flags to all their fans up above the Rooley Avenue terrace. Hundreds of them. Presumably another example of Moran's largesse, but a bloody good idea I thought. We used to have good marketing ideas like that once...

Bet we'd not be allowed to do the same at the HJ or anywhere else for that matter?

Wire didnt need any help from their fans last night.

That must be why there was a few Bulls fans with them on the terrace near me

Knowsley road didnt let flags in last time if I remember, not that we'd do anything to copy a good idea

when was the last time you took 1000 away?...

took more than that to Cas about 3 weeks ago.

our fanbase is greatly family orientated. such followers are likely to get disinterested when we are playing badly, and who can blame them?

Looking back there was actually around 200 so .

It's definitely not family viewing.

I understand there have been thousands of complaints to Ofcom stating that the comedy show on Friday night on Sky Sports was misrepresented as a RL match. I also gather most of the complainants were horrified that a horror show should have been shown before the watershed.

Apparently there are regional variations, since a late-evening surge in complaints from the Bradford area were adamant that the programme was so horrific that it should never have been broadcast at all.
