Maybe you could get a sub-forum

More to the point , will the Crusaders fan base follow their club [ or at least whatever part of the club will remain ] in the Championships if they take that option ?

If you're all just going to go SL only , then not much point in setting up in the lower tier

So are you RL fans , or are you SL fans ?

I go to about 2, maybe 3, Rugby League games a weekend as it is now, as I just love the game of Rugby League, so it won't be a change for me. I'll support Crusaders in whatever league they're in, as so will many others. Well, our core base, which is the Supporters Club will follow wherever they're playing.

If they fold, which is 50/50 at the mo, probabaly more in favour of folding or there's not even a pheonix clyb or one starting very low down, then I'll be getting a season ticket for Warrington and commit to them like I have to Crusaders.

If Cru drop a league I'll still follow them. Will still watch SL games for ex players but ultimately I support Cru first. For reasons I don't wish to discuss I wouldn't watch Scorpions so if there is no Cru I'd probably just watch on TV and pick a few games to go to.

Have no fear that there won't be a following for the Crusaders be it in the Champ or Champ One. The seed has been sown in many who haven't followed RL before and have taken RL to their hearts. Yes there'll be many who still follow the Cru wherever, just be tricky for some if there happens to be a game at the LSV!

Be at Widnes tomorrow with the Leythers and at Wrexham with the Cru on Friday.

Crusader Till I Die. Will go to every game if we are in the championship (Except when I'm at Uni for obvious reasons)

I think our Supporters Club base at least would support us no matter where we were playing and in whatever league we're in, but in the Championship I think we'd be able to get 1,000, which is pretty good going.

As long as we stay within any budget limitations and be self sufficent I am sure we can match crowd sizes of the likes of Sheffield, Dewsbury and Hunslet and build from there.

Crusaders would easily better the likes of those clubs at home. Also these 3 clubs (amongst others in the Championship) have just about zero away support coming west of the Pennines. I am certain Cru fans would do better than that going east. Leigh's away support is always good and a visit to North Wales would be a great day out. Must have been at least 1500 Leigh fans at the Stobart today adding to their SL coffers.

At least 1500 your having a laugh, 687 was the gate taking from the east stand.

I wasn't counting exactly but it certainly felt like 1500. We outsang and outcheered your lot no problem. It was a great game and a great afternoon. Thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks.

I guessed at 800 midweek , and I don't think I was far off , but all irrelevant as far as the Wrexham club are concerned , if you could hold onto several hundred in the Championship , that would be great and a decent start to a new ' life ' as a lower tier club

I sincerely hope it happens

I'd be satisfied with that too, but I think we will be getting around a 1,000 possibly more. I reckon we take about 300ish to away games at the moment and I think the majority of them will continue to go to away games if there's a club.

We've got damn good supporters like that and they'll help out the club as much as they can, but will they stick to their word, that's another thing.

Obviously, I would never expect ones from South Wales to come, but with how truly great supporters they are, I'm sure they will.

I make you right but I think any new club has to budget for smallish gates and make sure that even if it is sub 1,000 it still meets its bills and if the bigger interest is there it can raise its sights in what sort of player it can attract and help shape any future ambitions.
