| Quote kinleycat="kinleycat"Based on your last stint in SL, you would find that very difficult to back up.
4398 was your average att over 4 seasons 2000-2003 and three times in 2003, you managed less than 2000.
Wether it will make a difference we will see, but we are giving ourselves the best shout, and i agree i think your ground is better than BV, but as long as BV is compliant or at least more/as compliant than others it matters little.
And it wont be better than Newmarket.'"
that is all correct. however fans dont tend to pay to watch a loosing team, at the bottom of the league do they?!
and to be fair, internally at Fax we have improved massivley since we were in SL, as has marketing of the club.
i cant see, given a 3 year franchise, why we wouldnt be able to attract same size crowds as you lot, salford, welshies, broncos......
....take Hull KR for an example.

Quote RebelRebel="RebelRebel"It's worth pointing out that the club web site did host a report and summary of the meeting very shortly after it had finished - another of the little things the club seems to be getting right at the moment. It is actually a useful source of information now, which wasn't always the case before.
Here's the article: www.wakefieldwildcats.co.uk/2011 ... ompliance/'"
a great point, and yes it was much easier to read it there than on here. this site does however have the opportunity to provide a different service, we get to read the interpretations of what is said, and that can often be far more telling than what is said.
thanks for your help.

Then you see, it is a very bold statement then.
Don't get me wrong i hold Halifax in great affection, a proper club with great tradition, very much like Hull KR, but it will be a struggle and the fans will be watching a losing team, as most new teams to SL are losing teams.

| Quote SIMMSFAXTEDDY="SIMMSFAXTEDDY"i would say if we were given the nod, in the 1st year we would increse home fans at least 1000.
2500 (last years average) to 3500..
=#FF0000and away fans bring 1000 (average) .
so yeah 4500, 1st year. a good starting block to build on.
realistically if you get relagated, how many will be at the revamped Belle Vue? i think you will be supprised as to how many fans will/might decide not to bother paying to watch Championship rugby.'"
Many of them only bring a few hundred.
agree with the bit at the bottom though, championship rugby would kill off a lot of our support.

We are at the bottom end of the league and averaging about 7k so it can be done.

It is all ifs and buts, i suppose we will have to wait and see what they decide.
whatever happens the RFL have made a mockery of our game, the best game in the world.
what annoys me, is we have done everything they have asked of us and more (back to back GF's)
and we are still going to be denied, because they want to carry on with Experiment 1. london, and Experiment 2. Wales.
not many true RL fans would dissagree.

There are only Leeds, Wigan and Hull KR who bring 1000 fans.

Dead right pal, even more so annoying from your point of view, because no matter what you achieved over the last three years, the "shock" announcement of Widnes coming up was always inevitable.
