Quote: Agent XIII "What's the matter are you beginning to worry that more supporters are beginning to question the running of the club and spoiling your delusion that the future is bright. I would remind you like I and others have said if you have the future of the club as your core principal why vote to change to the new structure. It is reported that we are now one of only 5 SL clubs in favour.
I am resigned to the fate we face next season are you.'"


You are "one of the few clubs".... I enjoyed hospitality at the England game this weekend and overheard your chairman arguing with Nigel Wood on the merits of supporting the RFL's restructure (in a corridor in public view - embarrassing really). Wood basically said that if clubs did not agree then other changes would massively favour championship clubs meaning a dramatic loss of revenue for "your club". Wood was pretty animated, especially when questioned on bail outs for other clubs. Sounded like your chairman was having his arm twisted big time, anybody questioning his passion for your club is way off the mark!!

The more worrying aspect of this little scenario is that he thought Nigel Wood was you icon_eek.gif icon_wink.gif icon_smile.gif

HA HA. Are you sure Mr Elston wasn't dressed as Mr Carter telling MR Wood he had failed in his mission to liquidate the Mighty Trinity.

If JE was dressed as MC, he must have been stood on Rob Burrow's shoulders!

There is something in the realistic crowd attendance figures thing. I'm not so sure there are exaggeration so but in my time on more than one occasion I've felt that there has been a lower attendance than what there appears to be in reality over the last few seasons.
For financial planning point of view and marketing there needs to be an assessment of games where there will be a need to try push sales etc like the London Broncos game this season with community events. Like others have said attendances will be affected unless SL standard replacement players are brought in on cheaper deals.

I saw no problem with the announced attendances. We added the total number is season ticket sold to the walk ups? The season tickets have effectively paid so should be counted. Every sport does it.

Did you not find the last figure given v Cas to be at odds with all the other gates.

Think you'll find its one of the smallest attendances last season.

There was a stark difference between the crowds stated under Ted Richardson's reign and Andrew Glover's. It was always a question which were accurate. I had hoped it was the latter but with the crowd given for the last home game I guess the true average is probably 1k or so less than the official one. I think only the Leeds home match was anything like.

1k is probably about right.

I think that was the actually 'in the ground' attendance rather than paid for the game attendance, if that makes sense?? Part of the Daddycool 'be honest' mantra. I just think the other way was honest too, and looks better
