| Seeing as how easty has asked on another thread about who is doing player recruitment next season perhaps we also should indicate who from our small but merry band will be purchasing ST's next year.

| My option is not there,
Will look at money and whether I would rather spend my money on a Bronco ST or somewhere else - such as the Slough Jets -
For the past ten or so years it was renew without thinking now likely to go to the random games I can make.

| I will wait to see what the recruitment situation is like and who the new coach is. If it is someone of demonstrable pedigree, I will renew. If it is Powell, or someone similarly untested, then I will pick and choose my games and play some saturday cricket instead.
The fact that we're even asking ourselves these questions shows just how far the club has fallen.

| I'll only renew if we have a new, experienced coach on board - if Powell is STILL in charge then sorry but I'm outta here!

| Only renew if the Powell has left and his replacement has some previous experience as a head coach
Also, will wait to see where next year home games are to be played, if 4/5 are on the road and a pain to get to then I'll pick and choose which games I attend

| I have voted for " I will see what the prices are and we must have a new coach." but also will take into account how many on the road games we are going to have. (more than 3 will not buy)

| If Powell is still there I'll pick & choose a few home games to watch even if the ST is the same price as this year. If the ST doubles in price I won't bother renewing even if we have a new coach.

| If Powell is still in charge I very much doubt I will renew.

| Staggered by this thread. Who was the other person who voted for the first option? Where is the loyalty from anyone on here? Its no wonder that the club is on its when this is the state of affairs. These are the opinions from a fair cross section or perhaps some of the most allegedly "loyal" supporters, those who are interested in the club on a 7 day basis rather than just turning up every so often every other Saturday.
I will be buying a season ticket regardless of the coach, regardless of the playing staff, as this is the team that I support now, have supported in the past, and will always support in the future. This is my club. I'm not going to throw a hissy fit as we aren't in a good place at the moment as that won't help anyone at all. If anyone cares 1 jot about the club, they will get behind it and buy a season ticket next year, supporting the club as it attempts to turn things around. Refusing to buy a ST on the basis that this season has been a disaster and if Powell is perhaps in charge next year is extremely disappointing.
I don't like Powell either, what happens if say, Richard Agar is appointed? Does everyone renew their season ticket automatically? I'm really not sure what people are expecting. I am crossing my fingers that we will recruit a decent coach and some new players but my decision on whether or not to buy a season ticket will not be based upon this. I will be buying as soon as the renewal prices are released.
I have always regarded a vast number of our 'supporters' as an utter joke and this thread confirms it. We hardly have any supporters, instead we have people who like to watch Rugby League now and then and are prepared to stop following the club just like that. Fair play to the loyal ones, you know who you are

| Lister - if we dont agree with you we are not loyal fans, well we are all allowed our own opinion so I will allow you yours. Ok. After 20 years of attending home and a massive amount of away games and spending an absolute fortune on this club, on goods in the shop and a massive amount in sponsorship of players and numerous other things, as a pensioner I can no longer spend money willy nilly. I have to look at spending my money on things which hold value for money and interest me, while Powell is at the club neither of these apply. IN your mind, I can't be considered a loyal fan any longer as I refuse to spend any more money of my hard earned pension on something which holds no interest in it's current form, however as you are obviously not cash strapped would you like to buy my season ticket. I could watch and I could support as long as you pay for it for me.

It isn't simply the issue of who is coach.
What sort of direction is this club taking? At the moment it is only a viable entity because of the largesse of a backer. Does the club management show any sign of wanting to change this? Retaining Powell (or appointing someone similarly risky and inexperienced) says the people running the club are incapable of making hard-headed business decisions. It is the same issue with regards to attracting sponsors (not having a shirt sponsor is an utter embarrassment) and the generally shambolic way the club is run, the communication with fans and marketing etc etc.
At some point, people will run out of patience. We've already heard this season that hardened fans are fed up and walking away. That isn't simply the dross being served up on the pitch - it is the wider malaise that surrounds the club. I haven't reached a point where I'm ready to give up, but I'm not, like some believist automaton, going to pump my disposable income year after year into a club that has no long-term strategy or ability to deliver results. If that makes me 'fairweather' then so be it. I'll find something else to do.

| The club must love you Mr Lister. You seem to be able to put up with anything, what medication are you on?

| I'll almost certainly buy, subject to finances only really. I've watched this club for a long old time and will hang on there to the bitter end, as it looks like it will be. The blunt truth is that in three seasons time it is likely my local team will be Wakefield (at this level of RL). I'll miss Superleague, I don't see any realistic hope of us re-emerging a division or two down so it's off to South Wales, Hemel or London Skolars occasionally for me. We probably have only 30 odd Superleague games left in London. I intend to make the most of it, even if sadly it will probably be a case of admiring what the opposition do and despairing of what London do.

Sad but true, I hope you are wrong, but fear you are right. Still this club has more lives than a cat and once again the improbable may just save us!
