| Play internationals at Wheldon Road.
Or: organise a mass group of all those that want to sing to sit/stand together.

| Nothing wrong with club colours - one of the good things about the England football games are seeing the different flags from virtually every club in the land.

| One of the best atmospheres at any RL game I have been to at Elland Road in 2009. Never known RL supporters to celebrate as much as when Sam Burgess scored the opening try, people falling over all over the place

| For a start the RLIF needs to get together and commission RL's answer to 'The World In Union'.
All international governing bodies (That can afford to) should put money in a big pot. All international game marketing should be commissioned by the RLIF.
Once the promotion is correct and fans have been attracted to the game cut ticket prices (or have more double headers) and perhaps do 'England Shirt and a Final Ticket' offers (get the shirt now and be sent the ticket closer to the date of the game).
This should eventually create a Critical Mass and demand would be higher for tickets in the future, prices can go up... more money can be spent on marketing and improving the game abroad as well as at home.
That would mean more teams, more excitement and a huge atmosphere at the grounds.
Location of the games will always have an effect, so play the games that struggle to gain attendance and the finals in the middle of the heartlands. Simi-finals and other large internationals should be played just outside the heartlands or in London (due to large foreign born population)
..... Shame it wont happen......

| 1st time post but here goes...
I know of a number fans who don't go to internationals due to the poor atmosphere. What we need is for all like-minded fans to buy tickets in the same area the stadium.
Supporting your team no matter what the result comes natural to english fans. Personally i think if we set up something similar to the barmy army in cricket but with a Rugby League twist would be great. Afterall crickets fans had suffered loads of embarrasing defeats over the years and not too dissimlar to us really the england cricket team were awful in the 90's and early 00's.

2. Reinstate GB.
3. Play better.

| Win some games - any crowd would be quiet if their team is 20 points down after 20 minutes and the game as a contest is over by half time.

| Have a designated 'signing section' then anybody who likes to jump around and have a sing/shout/dance will be sat with likeminded people, who then in turn make noise, which then stops the place being like a morgue.

That really would be quiet.
Anyone know the BSL for "Booooo!"

| rlBoo Sam Vomkins till the roof comes offrl
Such a vermin. Rather than pulling out and being honest about his intentions like his brother, the rat is looking to put himself in the shop window during the 4N.
"Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo".
