Quote: Aboveusonlypie "Don't forget - there is more than one way of supporting the team. You can sit at home watching TV in your replica shirt, drinking from your double winners mug. And that's just as important, and valid. You don't have to go to the match to be a fan you know
Watching TV, drinking from a mug, and wearing the replica shirt all put money into the club to pay wages....

the fact that they're allowing pay-on-the-gate says it all

I've come to the conclusion that RL fans are the moaningest fans in the world! (I know that's not a real word - but it suits). We get to watch the worlds greatest game for a fraction of what football fans have to pay.

Reminds me of the bloke whose wife took him to Las Vegas for their anniversary. He gambled all night and won on the roulette wheel, then they went to a show and saw Shirley Bassey followed by Bob Hope and then Frank Sinatra topped the bill. When he got home his mate asked him what it was like to which he replied "I suppose it is alright for them as likes fun"

In fact, you could argue that watching it on TV helps to ensure that the Sky monies keep rolling in.. So, maybe we would be better all getting Sky Sport and staying home to watch.

I will be there btw....

I want to be there more than anything but starting work at 18:00 and living 200 miles away presented problems. icon_sad.gif

I never doubted you!

I think Sky would lose interest if there are many more like last night's game or the one at Huddersfield last week. The one at Leeds looked shocking with the terrace absolutely empty. (By the way every time I stand on that terrace there are loads of Leeds fans mixing it with the 'I always stand here' routine. Where did they get to?). Let's hope next season the crowds start to come back. Whilst I agree with most people that the standard has dropped - it's still great value for money.

You can tell that Eddie and Stevo and the rest are [idesperate[/i for a close game tonight watched by a large crowd. I think they may be disappointed - possibly on both counts.

I'll be there but it's only my third game this season. I'm not sure if that means I'm better or worse than a season ticket holder who's chosen not to attend.


It does look like the Wigan end is going to be quiet though.

I'd bet my mortgage it won't finish 7 - 1 to Wire.

My thoughts exactly.

Same goes for Wire.
