Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Every SL club should have to have an indicative budget imo that shows how much they will spend on marketing, jnr development, 1st team salary, coaching salaries etc. i would be happy to see the RFL set a % expectation on this.'"
This is the post that got me onto the subject

Surely each team has their own marketing team, and community workers who have this in their remit?
What next, is it going to be the RFL's job to sort out the pre-match entertainment?
The clubs between them have a hell of a lot more resources than the RFL, so why should this fall under the RFL?
This season we have seen initiatives like free Challenge Cup tickets, half priced Magic Weekend tickets for ST holders, over the past few years we have seen the emergence of home and away kids Season Tickets.
Do the FA or the RFU get involved with increasing their individual club's crowds?
The RFL do not necessarily have the local expertise to draw in the crowds in my local town (Warrington) for example. This is 100% the responsibility of the individual clubs. Of course if there is anything the RFL can support or help, then they should (see the above examples). '"
Given the poor relatively speaking attendances at many of our clubs I would have thought that either the RFL demand the clubs do more and have people specificaly at clubs doing this job or they do more themselves |

Other clubs have done similar things for the same fixture, it really isn't that hard and if any club feels the need to rlblame away fans for their pitiful crowdsrl, then their Super League status should really be reconsidered.'"
Bringing up an article from 2006 on a thread about 2009 crowd figures is rather sad. |

If it's indicative of a viewpoint or attitude held at a club, I think it's still perfectly relevant. |

If you actually read the article properly, nowhere does it say that Salford were blaming the French for poor crowds. Merely stating that it's a shame Catalans weren't/won't have many 'away' supporters there to support them. Not blaming them for low attendances.
I think the marketing push from the club, the free tickets in an attempt to get people through the doors and the push for the new stadium knowing that will help us greatly in attracting new supporters and persuading casual supporters to come more often shows that Salford have taken responsibility for crowds at the Willows. And they are growing, albeit slowly. |

we are at a situation where all but 4 clubs are getting decent crowds this season. In theory Wakey and Salford should be able to draw 7,500 avgerages. Quins will always struggle to avg over 5,000 imo and Celtic are too early to tell yet.

Without a local rivalry, I think Quins and Celtic will always struggle for interest.
Catalans have had local rivalry, they just aren't in their league at this moment in time (before anyone points that one out!). |
