Quote: paulw_usa "The answer, damm I don't have a quick one, I posted on another thread on the site read that onefor the history. Doncaster RLFC has passion even when we were sh*t we still had people at the games. I have supported them through thick and thin home and away. The one thing that a friend of mine always said (he's ex marketing director of Bramley) you got a greatclub with great fans run by as*holes. We offered suggestions to market the club better they fell on deaf ears (Singe thought they were great btw)
The fans have the passion in Doncaster, some are fair weather fans but we always counted on [size1500[/size good loyal fans who would support the team. We also figured we could get average gates up to 2500 with a little effort and had a marketing plan in to do that we presented it to the previous owners and they binned it. He left u in the s**t. [sizeProduct on the field is essential[/size, recent results are not encouraging in that respect. We need effort on two fronts, I posted my e mail on another thread and won't repeat it here, we can help, the people I know have experience and will do this for little reward as they love the club. Contact us and we will talk more.'"
Two facts to bear in mind (and I don't make these statements lightly) ...
1) The 1500 is now 200.
2) There is little or no product on the field and therefore sadly, very little which can be promoted / marketed.
Oh how I wish this wasn't the case.
, I hope that you are wrong (but sadly your probably right) I will come to see for myself in April
