Are you expecting 80 minutes of total entertainment?
We won't have possession for 40 minutes, so does that mean there can only be 40 minutes of entertainment?
We'll probably be trying to get out of our own half for 30 minutes, so does that mean there can only be 10 minutes of entertainment?
And then we come to the crux of the matter, scoring points/tries.
If that's all that people want, then you need to find another game to support.

I want to win more games than we lose.

Most odd.

| Quote: Legends and Icons "It's suprising what the off season does to fans , Pritchard , Taylor and all though only rumours but if vidot , inu and one more big name came in then people might feel more optimistic . Don't get me wrong I think pass sales will defiantly be down but a good first 5 games at the beginning of the season and fans will be back pretending they always stood by the club iakow know doubt'"
No problem with recruitment, but it will take either a massive improvement in performances or a new coach for me to consider a new pass.
I will probably attend every game anyway and with the cheap tickets it will save me money meaning I'm getting better value for money.

Season won't have finished so I'd wait until how we do in the super 8s, if we do and win more than we lose then I would consider it, there is still the issue of costing me more to buy a pass.

| ... so you're entitled to get tickets to watch games on the cheap?

Why should I pay more per game by getting a pass, I'll ask again where is my benefit?

Not all I'll still attend, but I haven't got money to throw away and waste, I have a family to look after.
So unless things change I see no incentive to buy a pass.
I'm sure Pearson said the days of cheap tickets had gone anyway.

| ... I thought the Fanbassadors scheme was to encourage schools/clubs to get involved with the club's activities and to get them to matches which they wouldn't otherwise attend.
I guess you must feel that you qualify.

| Can't see people falling for jam tomorrow anymore in regards of getting a pass.
The club will need even more offers next year to try and entice back the supporters they will inevitably lose after this season.
Can see many not renewing and picking their games next year.
Good form and a good standard of rugby may win the fans back, but the pressure will be on from day one.

| What people also have to remember is that many supporters who will inevitably walk away next year will not be doing it on the basis of just one poor season.
People I talk to have just had enough of it after years of disappointmen,t and disenchantment in the game generally.
Many renewed last year due to wanting to support AP and it being a special year for the cub.
Seems like all the goodwill has been exhausted now for many.

Yes I do as I do a lot of work promoting the club and getting involved in community activities, so thanks for your concern. You obviously know very little about the fanbassador scheme.
