Righto .... time to read the replies and digest.
Certainly dont want to be classed as "In The Know" cos im not
I think the thread was going in the direction of where are all our fans ???
I listed a few very valid reasons where I felt the club is letting itself down and yes I did have a dig at the board
And my spin on the bigger picture is just that The merch, The season tickets, The kids THE FUTURE and I dont believe its being addressed fully. These are all things that will attract and just as quickly lose fans.
I dont envy anyone taking on the role at the top of the tree at our club, and although Ive no massive axe to grind with Gary, Hes a very approachable bloke. I just voice my concerns about the club.
Its a catch 22 situation. Gary stated this month was going to be good money wise with 3 big games at home (We all did), with 2 already under our belts and 2 poor attendancies you cant help but worry about our financies.
This is where the imploding comment comes in , we cannot sustain high players wages on very little money coming in, I believe the Bulls are just a tip of the iceberg.
If ive come across as a bitchy, back stabbing , negative , axe to grinding keyboard warrior ... I apologise. Im just a fan who cares about the club whose pressure valve can blow now and again

What do Sheffield expect playing during and England Football international? Even non-football fans will tend to watch England internationals. I was invited to a couple of different parties going on in Sheffield to watch the Football (I'm often in Sheffield to visit my girlfriend). I think they also played at the Don Valley which might not be the fans preferred stadium that the Eagles use?

Surprised and disappointed at the lowering interest of all cup games... the Super league attendances might be improving but at the expense of every other Rugby League competition? I felt the Fev game attendance should have been bigger, I wonder if evening traffic puts off other west yorkshire supporters given the slow moving M62... that wouldn't have made it easy for as many Fev supporters..... I thought there would have been more Keighley supporters there on thursday... I did a 200 mile round trip to support our cup run, why couldn't more local supporters turn up? Was it a time factor or was it because cup games aren't included on a season ticket?

So did I and it really bugs me that people who actually live in Keighley and the surrounding areas don't make the effort to support the lads. I overheard quite a few Fev supporters moaning about their journey which probably did involve a stretch of the M62, then a drive through the evil city before they emerged into the civilisation of the Aire Valley. No doubt a few of them will have been put off but they were still well-supported. I'm really at a loss to think what will get more folk down to Cougar Park.

Indeed, a lot of credit to Fev for their strong away support turning up in good numbers on a weekday evening.

I think the one thing that everyone shares on here is a love for the club. That is borne out in different ways by fans but that's the one thing we all probably agree on (probably not much more, lol!) Some fans may know more about the club than others due to associations etc. At times I maybe a little green as I may not know what someone else does. Since Gary has been the Chairman I have tried to support him. I'll be honest an say I haven't agreed with some things he's come out with or done, but I have tried to get behind his ideas etc and supported him on here. I will never make any apology for this, because I think this was the right thing to do. I maybe don't know what you know, but I love the club and will do all I can to support it.
