Dunno. Maybe the same reason some seem to feel superior because they don't want to?
Think everyone needs to calm down a bit on this issue TBH. Just about everyone on here wants us to do well, is frustrated at the way things are going, and has different ideas about how fans can best try and do something about it.
Knocking lumps out of each other isn't really achieving anything.

Don't see anyone thinking there more superior in that aspect ?
If people want to keep going to games fine by me but don't question my loyalty/passion over this. ( not a direct comment at you Kosh)

I think that calling these people 'mugs' and saying that they're 'settling for mediocrity' probably qualifies, don't you?

I have some sympathy with both points of view TBH.

| I think most people can see that we need a top coach, good scrum half, good centre and tackle busting prop.
I also think that JR probably knows this - but his primary remit from the board would be to safe guard our investment and to make a profit. If you can do this by playing good rugby within a set budget all well and good.
The off field development of the club has been very good and will hopefully benefit the club in years to come.
We are now at a crossroad where we are playing poor rugby and crowds will start to fall - resulting in the the boards primary objective not being met. - I think that this will result in one of two things a) cut and run and sell to the highest bidder (someone has to have deep pockets because RL clubs dont usually run at a profit) or b) try to change things on the park and hope revenue increases.
there is a third option but my mind wont go there - the board sit tight watch revenues decline and cut the operating/playing budget .
Solution god knows I just pray

| The fact is it is a personal choice thing, no rights or wrongs.
I love rugby and support FC so I will carry on , the only other options are if people love rugby but they are discontent with the way things are at FC they have the option to go and watch KR, (personally a choice not for me).

| As things stand I would not renew my pass.
I've been a passholder for most of the past 30 years with only a few years break due to work commitments. The problem is everything is being done on the cheap and there is no entertainment value from the rubbish being served up on the pitch. I'm getting to the stage where although I've got a pass for this season I can't be bothered to make the 130 mile round trip to watch 5 drives, a poor kick and baffling interchanges. I mean, it's only six miles to Headingley for me and I couldn't justify spending the ticket money to myself as I knew we'd get hammered.
Thing must change quickly. Taxi for Agar, Sharp and Thorman please.

Good post. Like it or not the board have to see the club as a business, and run it like one, we are in debt and even though we are turning over a lot of money we are not really in a position to be throwing big money at players. Off field we are probably the best side in Superleague and over the next few years we should see the benefits. That said there is a fine line, and money does need to be spent to strengthen the side, because if we don't improve on the field the reality is that the crowds will drop and the good work will be set back.
