This is exactly what people are talking about, fans should stick with the club through good and bad times however long it may last.

Although we need bandwagon supporters for the final you wont see three quarters of these fans every again so just because we win the Challenge Cup doesn't necessarily guarantee bigger crowds and more money, in fact i very much doubt we would see a significant rise on home attendances even if we won a trophy.

I'm not saying that this is right, I'm saying that this is fact. As far as I am concerned it isn't right, but it happens and it's a fact of life.

all this bickering about bandwagons,true fans new fans etc...we are on the verge of going wembley,got a great coach,players beggining to believe in themselves..does it bloody well matter whether joe bloggs and his family attend their 1st game or 1001...lets enjoy what we`ve got at the moment...the more speccies we get the better

Well said Les

Great post, well said.

Great post, fed up of hearing all this 'real fan' rubbish.

I hope the semi-final and the final are packed with band-wagon jumping glory hunters. That will mean we have a band-wagon actually worth jumping on.

I am totally naffed off with this bandwagon word lets be totally honest what have we actually done, we have beat HKR away and reched a semi final hopefully we will do something at last and win the bloody thing.

lets be honest Latchford i think we have got the best most loyal fan base in the league if we had a team that was say a regular top 6 side the Haliwell Jones stadium would be well to small.

When we get to Wembley and we take 30,000 be them fans or warrington people just wanting to watch there team in a major final then i say fantastic and should be able to do it without being tagged jumping on the band wagon.

We had it all be it from a very self righteous few in 2004 which is totally beyond me.

i think what he means that why don,t they go more matches fair enough people have commitments or just can,t afford it, but just imagine if say out of them extra say 15,000 all went 3 games each, each season we would have near capacity,more money meaning,better players possibly trophies extend the stadium we all love the club but some need to show it a bit more frequently than just semis and (hopefully) finals. Prime example look how many turned up at fev would they have been there had the £1 travel wasn't put on i think not,so the solution instead of them gettin on band wagons simply get on a coach and follow the mighty wire!!!

Fantastic post that Ste, hit the nail right on the head.
