You have to think, how much more can the loyal fan take, before they start thinking of doing something else on a Sunday.

What about new fans. What reason will they have for coming down.

Also the more i think about it, there was more than one person on the old board. Yet he seems to be getting all the blame.

For me as dissapointing as the result was, it could be an eye opener for Barry the players and the coaching staff,we can learn a lot from teams like widnes than London skolars and whilst this is going to be a very hard season positives will be gained from it and the added experiences we will have can only be turned into our advantage.

The only way to get new fans along in spite of taking the odd beating - home and away - is to make the atmosphere so good at Cougar Park that it'll be great to be a part of, no matter what the score.
Cue drums, new songs, bring along a friend...

Quite true.

Mick from your post, i see you are expecting the fans to create the atmosphere.

I wonder what the club are going to do.

Any suggestions ?

Is that aimed at me or the club John?

Jim it should be you as you previously mentioned the drum etc do you have a talent musically no one is aware of, bring down a horn as you are always good at blowing your own trumpet

To be fair to the club, the music has improved since last season thankfully, not sure what else the club can do, in order to get say a decent singer on or group will not be cheap so unless anyone knows a singer or group with quality who will perform for next to nowt not sure what to suggest.

This has been mentioned before but why not have a battle of the bands over a weekend that is free from rugby as during the season there will be or maybe an xfactor type of thing.

People will support a winning team at a decent level....end of.

That's what's required.

As for entertainment, it's all rubbish anyway.

Mini rugby is required.

Mini rugby is required.'"

Aimed at anyone Jim, people have been supporting the Cougars far longer than me, what has been done before ?

I think the fans DO create the atmosphere - what are the club going to do, hire rent-a-crowd?

So i take it then, that the club don't have to anything to create a match day experience?

Maybe the club can help, but the real passion for a team comes from the supporters, surely? And that passion is what creates an electric atmosphere, not a brass band at half time. No disrespect intended, but half-time entertainment alone won't get new supporters in. But reports of a cracking atmosphere, or driving past and hearing the roar of the crowd, win or lose, just might.

First of all, you need a lot more than just half time entertainment, to create a match day experience. It needs to start from the second you walk through the gate.

You would have to be very lucky, to hear anything whilst driving past.

The team would need to be winning, or having a very close game for the crowd to make any real sort of noise.
