| I don't think it's just that Cruncher.. When i was a nipper, if you wanted to watch sport, you had to go to watch it.. Now people have spent a lifetime as armchair fans. It's easy to be a "fan/Supporter" now and contribute to your chosen clubs finances, you just subscribe to Sky Sports.

I know, that too. Had a conversation with a bloke from Wakefield about a year ago. We met on holiday, and as soon as he learned that I was from Wigan, he stared ribbing me about the RL, having a pop at pie-eaters, etc. It was all good-natured enough and I didn't take offence, but then it came out in the conversation that he hadn't been to watch Trinity in years and years, only seeing them now and then on the telly. Not much use to them, that bloke.

| People are paying more to go and watch live games than they did 10 years ago yet the on field product is dramatically inferior.
Where is the value for money? Wigan vs Saints 10/15 years ago meant Long vs Lam, Faz vs Scully, Newton vs KFC now it's just a bunch of kids vs poor Aussie imports.

If I wanted to freeze my balls off watching blokes slog it out in a mud bath I'd watch Union.
The change to the summer to fit Sky schedules was the best thing that could have happened to the sport. That we've not kicked on from their is our own fault as a sport.

'"
How would playing games in Jan make any positive difference compared to playing them August? Would 3/4k of fans suddenly want to go to a game because it's winter?
I'd love to know how playing in winter would solve all our problems? Increased competition from football & RU, seriously poor weather & we'd still more than likely have the Thursday games.
The game has a multitude of issues but being a summer sport isn't one of them.

Because nostalgia.
You're right with all of your points though of course.

So in other words you don't have a clue.
I personally think it's because we don't play in cotton jerseys anymore. If we went back to those then we'd easily have 25k on for every game.
