Cheer up everyone only 2 more years and there won't be a Superleague club in London.

The club are putting in a good effort at making sure nobody cares by then.

Still think I might though. I'll be there next year.

So, 42% of the 36 people allowed to vote will renew if we have a new coach, but 50% of that figure support Listers view that they will renew whatever the price or coach, guess the biggest concern is the 50% of that number who will not be back again regardless.

They should be the target audience the club are addressing right now and trying to retain.

What are we talking here, a Groucha Marx plastic specs and tash job?
Seriously hope you get this one wrong Mark, got to be the tin tack and see ya later, go see the RFL for a cushy number. No reason whatsoever to keep him around unless you want to reward total failure.

My view is that David Hughes is thinking like a Trader in that the value of Rob Powell has bottomed out but if he holds his nerve that he will see a rebound upwards.

I see him as a kind of Nick Leeson in that he has invested too much to pull out, gambling in a haphazard way, maybe in a Martingale system.

I reckon Tawhai and Powell were told their respective fates about 3 weeks ago because Powell has been much more critical and negative in his interviews than before and Tawhai has quit.

My guess is that Powell had played the role of Martyr and that Hughesy is soft enough to have swallowed these tales of woe and gelling tales and give him charity

Not a Q of whether or not people will come back, its how often and whether they commit to going to every game

Good man. PaRL...see you at the HAC sometime in January.

The good news for us is that in 2 years we will probably be too ancient to make the journey across London anyway (and we won't be able to see what's going on in any case).

The truth is that most of us will be there next season, we are masochists after all. But at least we can threaten that we won't buy.........what else can we do?

Oh Lister thank you for the offer of help for my allotment. Do you want to pay the rent or buy the seeds about the same cost or just turn up and dig it over. It may be better for you to dig it over it will cost you nowt.

Location is perhaps a bigger factor than coach for me. If we stay at The Stoop, I'll probably renew irrespective of coach (and will renew if I think it's someone with the capability to take the club forward) but if we move across town, I reckon that'll be it fo me.

I'm not sure there's an answer to this question, but why does being a fan (of any sport) mean you have to suffer and put up with bad times? I completely accept supporting a team and having colours on a mast, but I go because I enjoy rugby league. It would be fine if I could just enjoy the opposition but I'm in a Broncos shirt, and frankly even the Leeds play wasn't that good, Broncos were just that bad.

If I'm not enjoying going and being at the ground, why should I part with any money to do so? I said in the 'what do you want to see in the 2012 season' thread before the season started that as long as they play well I'm happy - it's more important to hold your head up than to win I think.

That hasn't happened, and if the tickets go up in price next season or it looks again like there are going to be matches at random grounds, a whole heap of different times and general messing around I will have to think very seriously about whether I get another season ticket.

Oh and a new coach who seems passionate and engaged. Someone who looks angry when players play badly and openly relishes the chance to get his team up against the top clubs in the game and have a go at them.

Can't give up just yet but something better change culture wise at the club. Must have a new coaching set up for next year.

I'll probably renew.

smashing

how do you vote, or have i missed the boat much like the team.

i probably plump for option 3. i have been a season ticket holder for 5 or so years. no entertainment this year and with same coach wont see that changing, so probably pay as i go next season unless drastic changes.

not wasting my valuable free time on such a shower every home game anymore. absolutely sick of it now, dont even bother looking up away scores anymore, i wait for people at work on the monday morning to comment "lost again mate !!". they all look up scores out of sympathy for me in hope we get a win ( even bad press is good press ) but think im mad trying to be optimistic about team continually losing, im beginning to feel inclined to agree.
