JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES????? £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. :BEAT::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76030.jpg



Quote: Honkytonk "This season. We are under powered and under strength .All the effort to win promotion for what. Dead certs to go down as it stands. I feel sorry for Ward and the players. Heard from 2 sources Ward asked for more and was told no. And if anyone pipes up "why should Hughes spend more", because he is the man in charge. If he has no ambition for a top flight club, find someone that does. Crowds won't come to see us get tonked each week. Well, you've lost yourself another fan as I'm not going through the ballache journey if the club shows no desire. Championship rugby and our best youngsters leaving. Such a waste'"

You're the second person who has posted "no more" tonight..........it's a sad indictment when die hard fans and ST holders have had enough, but no doubt the usual apologists will be along to defend the club and it's owner.

Reality is we didn't expect to win promotion, we then let our star play maker walk away and made little if any effort to strengthen the spine of the team....the blame for all of this sits squarely on the shoulders of one man, who does little other than write cheques with little regard to where the money is actually going.

A perfect example of Hughes inability to manage his spend and the clubs finances is this:
The rent at the Stoop was reportedly £250,000 a year.......the gate receipts at the Stoop were £80,000 a game or £1,040,000. The Gate receipts at the wedding venue are £30,000 a game or £420,000........anyone know how much rent we are paying there? Even if we were allowed play for free, we were still making more money on the gate at the Stoop after we'd paid them.......nearly double.
It doesn't take einstein to see where the club is heading at present...I'll be in London for the Wakefield game next month and even though we arranged the trip specifically so I could take in the game, I am genuinely thinking about not bothering........maybe it will take more fans like Honkeytonk and the other ST holder who's had enough to stay away before St David of Swinton realises he needs to employ professionals to spend his money......when we go down this year, I genuinely can't see the club getting more than 500 fans in the 2nd tier........he's killed it!

Quote: northernbloke "Surprised it’s not the refs fault two idiots came running on the pitch as well.
Anyone see what happened to them by the way when the stewards eventually got hold of the idiots?'"

They were marched out on the ground just in front of me and told to go home. At least they run forward and broke the Cats line!

It’s me again! Unfortunately that is not the rule, the game is not stopped mid flow! Even when the doctor comes on the field it’s the next break in play not mid flow.

There was no delay in medical staff getting to the injured player.

That’s the pro game protocol, play stops at next tackle or breakdown in play after an obvious head injury, if it’s not head and player is not in area where play is likely to go to, unless doc comes on it’s play on. It’s not the ref call to decide the severity of the injury.
