Quote: wrencat1873 "If the cricket or football were postponing half of their weekly fixtures on a regular basis, they too would have some issues regarding attendance.
It seems clear that, the strategy of "allowing" postponements due to covid contacts is hurting the game and NOBODY is doing a bloody thing to try and change the situation.
We are sleepwalking into oblivion.
The "product" on the field has become one dimensional. Yeah, we've made the game quicker but, it's like having a sentence without punctuation.
There needs to be a change and some positivity in the game and quick.'"

Get rid of testing people who are not sick (with tests that cannot detect infection in any case), stop doing track and trace which causes pingdemic and requests people to isolate when they are also not sick and stop restrictions on entry into grounds and the sport might have a chance. All of which are guidelines not laws.
If the RFL and clubs have anything about them and want the sport to get back on its feet theyt have to stand up and be counted, otherwise the sport is done as we know it.

Quote: Donnyman "

and yet when the fans don't return to normal numbers immediately, it's apparently the death of the game Attending games on a regular basis is a habit .........covid has broken that habit and if your assuming folk will return to their pre covid routines in 2022, you're in for a bit of a shock.

9,200 on today against Leigh with about 400 Leigh fans. It’s still short of a normal crowd but it was a good step in the right direction.

The second world war war broke the habit years ago, but post war crowds were bigger than ever - Once it was all over and people felt safe they flocked to rugby and soccer because they had the freedom, the danger was over, and they wanted to get out of the house.

1948 season Wire.v.Wigan 34,000 crowd, 1947 Leeds,v,Bradford 40,000 these were just league games...........

Probably nothing worth watching on the 250 TV channels they had back then either and ryanair and easyjet flights weren't as cheap as they are now icon_lol.gif

2022, if you're back to a semblance of normality then, is going to be a HUGE year for many sporting clubs. Football isn't even immune.....Union and League being niche sports will have to work overtime to get their pre-covid fans back, let alone new ones. The average age of fans at London Broncos is north of 55yrs.....it's similar at a great many clubs.....we're at the last generation of 'my dad took me's"......the game needs to adjust its offering and strategy.

Yeah, most SL clubs would be rather happy with a crowd of over 9K against a team who had lost all of their 13 league games.
