So only you know you have the secret?:14978.jpg



I miss the old open-air Knowsley Rd bogs.There was something quaint and old-worldy about using them and being able to see the moon and stars!

Quote: FarsleySteve "Let's see if we have a 10% drop over the WHOLE season before we drop the flags to half mast shall we?

And anyway, do you know that the clubs and the RFL aren't working in the background to try and improve crowds or find out why they are down so far? Just because they don't come out with announcements pandering to the doom mongers doesn't mean they aren't working across the board to improve things.'"


1) No, let's not wait hey, when the blatantly obvious is staring us in the face.

2) No, I don't know what the RFL are doing, but on past evidence I'll make the reasonable assumption that its currently a toss-up between "sod-all" accompanied by a press release highlighting how they're up for some Mickey Mouse award, or "random direction-less 'marketing' initiative", also accompanied by a press release highlighting how they're up for some Mickey Mouse award.

I've been watching rugby league & leeds since i was about 9 about 1995ish and I really think this is a fantastic era

it depends on how you depend an era!?

Just looking 10 or so years back, we had a super league full of imports with only two teams that ran away with everything (Saints & Bulls) and less people attending games

now we have probably 6 teams that are competitive at the top all with new or up to standard stadia all pulling over 10k crowds.

with more young british talent coming trough than I can remember in my short time watching this game

we have a healthy GF & CC getting 150k spectators and millions in tv audience...plus a pretty healthy WCC that seems to be going from strength to strength

All the more reason to act quickly when it looks like we're heading backwards.
