There probably isn't thousands of people chomping at the bit, however people have stopped or not started seeing matches because whilst they can afford it, they would rather spend their surplus cash somewhere that doesn't end up frustrating them by the end.
If the disciplinary system changed, this frustration would be minimalised and more people would be introduced to the sport.

Wibble, wibble.

Unfortunately, the constant blaming of the RFL for everything under sun (check the @rlmeltdown twitter feed) including bad weather, motorway traffic jams, the current Tory government and this nonsense about driving fans away because the disciplinary system isn't perfect skews the legitimate criticism the RFL should be getting for some of the many things they do need slating for.

One has probably lead to the other to be fair, much like the way Simms would be blamed for things that clearly weren't his fault because of the many other things he had ballsed up. He effectively became a lightning rod for everything that was wrong with the club in the same way the RFL is a lightning rod for many of the problems with rugby league even if they are not responsible.

But the pressing question is did the Myler money go to Nigel Wood’s tailor?

Don't get me started on the Myler money

What Myler money??
