Hope it works out for you. Yesterday was my first visit to trailfinders, it's a fantastic facility and doesn't need much doing to it to get it to Super League standard (probably just a seated stand on the far side).
We had a great day and will definitely be back next year (assuming you don't get promoted, which I think is still a possibility). We sat with a couple of Italian locals who were there for their first visit, they loved it and said they'd be back.

£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76030.jpg

I find it ironic lots of folk complain that the club don't market or push the game, now they are doing something folk are saying it's wrong, most odd.'"
I find it ironic that some still defend the club blindly even though its now playing home games at a conference centre against 2nd tier opposition where as it used to play at a bespoke rugby stadium against world renowned names such as Wigan and st Helens....
Agreed, promotion is gone, 6th spot is the best we can do. So need to start planning the trips to Toulouse Toronto and errrrrrrr good god possibly Perpignan hmmm
