| I salute all those that attend..
I am sure Carl is also as dissapointed about the whole situation as we are..
But i am having too much deja vu to really let this get me too dispondent.
I just cannot get my head around how any team in league 1 or 2 can seriously survive long term, with no serious backer. (out with a very few exceptions)
Football clubs spend millions and get millions and still don't turn profits, what chance do we have...
I hope something can be salvaged but too mauch time in my house is spent talking about the past and too much of that is tarnished with so many dissapointments.
I am currently in the process of trying to get back up North to live and one of the reasons has always been to get to more Games.
But in current climate i can only be reluctant to pay out money to watch a team that just will be unable to compete..
I genuinely admire all the effort from so many - but cannot see how with history that we have each season, we will ever attract the quality of players to the club - which in turn affects Bums on seats...
I hope i am proven wrong - but cannot see any other way that this is going but downhill?
Some more solid info now from the club would be appreciated..
PS hats off to Featherstone for the gesture of goodwill.

| In view of the perceived seriousness of the situation, I would again recommend that if people can attend that they do.
As Baz has said, failing that if anyone has any specific questions they would like asked, by all means PM either of us and we will ask them.

| Handed out a number of flyers today at Featherstone advertising the meeting on Tuesday (Thanks for those Bruce).
The event is also advertised in the Drum itself.
If anyone isn't sure if they should come, please do and if you have any questions please ask them.

I would urge people to be careful what they say.

| Thanks SO. Everyone seems to be very reticent about reporting what was said at the meeting. I thought it was an open mtg and hence don't really know why there is a reluctance to report. Would have been there but i had a previous commitment. Would really like to know more detail but get the feeling thats not going to be forth coming.
