Quote: atomic "So basically you are saying the squad is built for next season? So everyone away on holiday is being retained for 2020.
Why sit under the radar again? Why not make the most media impact now? Not be many reading in the closed season!'"
That's what we as a club, seem to do, isn't it? I agree with you - I would have thought that a steady flow of information about next season's squad, would have maintained/generated interest amongst fans/sponsors etc. In the past, I have bought tickets from the likes of Sheffield, Wigan, Hull KR, and Widnes, on-line from those club, when we play there (I'm not making a special trip to Leigh, just to buy tickets from our club) Those clubs are emailing me with news about next season.
To an extent, the club was 'lucky' at the start of last season, in that they got the 'sympathy' vote from fans, who turned up in larger than expected numbers. This time around, we haven't got that threat of extinction, (thank goodness') to galvanise fans. We (the club) need to work on that.
