Turning off

Quote: gutterfax "Sometimes, RL fans who have an unfathonable dislike of the other code don't half come up with some utter bollox.

1. I have heard tell of these mystical freebies that sarries throw about like confetti, but have yet to track them down or see a link to an offer declaring this blatant fudging of average attendances.
2. 36,503 people paid to watch the London Broncos in their 13 "home" games in 2013 but it is your assertion that we should instead cast doubt on the validity of a RU club attracting 4,560 MORE FANS to ONE regular season game.
3. The RFL first round of 4 play-off games, featuring 2 matches where the sides were from within 15 miles of each other attracted 35,128 than this sarries game you feel the need to question.
4. 31,728 Rugby League fans paid to attend the 4 Quarter Finals of the 2012 Challenge Cup.

Why is it that some fans feel the need to try and belittle the other lot? Is it amisguided belief that by trying to poke fun at Union we will all forget the general apathy of your average RL fan in the UK. Do they mistakenly believe that by questioning the attendance and the methods to achieve it at a Union game, that the rest of us will forget the crowds that the RFL fails to attract to games that aren't included on ST's at clubs? The Exiles anyone? The Challenge Cupsemi between Hudds and London this year maybe...?

Rather than question the goings on at a club that identified, purchased and will have built a stadium inside 12 months why don't we continue to discuss ways in which the RFL can sort out this farce......because empty stadiumson TV isn't going to attract anyone! IMO that is.'"

Never mind that, it's the fans who seem to have an unfathomable dislike of RL that I can't get my head round.
