| The poor attitude hasn't been around for month in my mind. Even though we got to the £1m game I still remember many games last season where our performances were terrible but we scraped through. This year they have been terrible but we failed to win them at the last minute. We have been lethargic for two seasons - and all those since McNamara took over.
These games though are not totally pointless. I assume we keep the home game receipts. So, if we make the semi is that 5 games where the semi is all takings. Reach the final and we get half of that. OK, each game up to the semi may only be a couple of thousand walk up at say £15 with extras added. Lets say they get £30k per game X 4. The semi could bring in say £60k and the final could bring in another £30k. If we win it we get £50k extra on our money next year. So, we do need to do well here to bring in around £260k so this is why Smith will play to win every game. We need every penny of that so we do need to go and spend money when we get into the stadium.

| Well the club are doing tickets for £15 for each home game. Dunno if those are pre-purchase price of the price on the day.
It would be sensible to have the price on the day, the club could at least take a look at how the crowd turns out a cheaper ticket

| If they want my burger buying business then a place the guy selling them can fit inside would be a start. He has to shuffle sideways to step outside, turn around, then shuffle sideways back in to get your change.

| I think a crawl around North Parade is on the cards. I'll save a trip to Odsal for the final....if we can be bothered to try for it.

It would be sensible to have the price on the day, the club could at least take a look at how the crowd turns out a cheaper ticket'" the semi final, with no mention of when they are bought, so I guess that's to be taken at face value and that's the price whatever.

It would make sense, I know there are a lot of away fans who feel that Odsal is over priced (few home fans feel that way too) so if the price is lower then maybe getting bigger crowds might be possible

| I wouldn't bank on many fax fans. A few die hard faithful but even if it was just £5 each. Not many are interested to watch the dross we are serving up, add to that you miserable lot into the mix then it might have to be a bag search for razor blades upon entry. This season really has turned to mush for both clubs.

| On looking back at the bumf when buying my membership, benefits included:
"Reserved seating for all 2016 Kingstone Press Championship and Super 8s games"
As we aren't in the Super 8s, they could argue it is all pay!

We are in the Super 8s.
Unfortunately the term "Super 8s" gets misused. The term actually describes all 3 "groups" of teams at this stage of the competition. The top division is Super 8s Super League, the middle is Super 8s Qualifiers and the bottom is Super 8s Championship Shield.
It's been misused a lot lately as being the "Super League" division, but it's not correct I'm afraid.

Few of our lads took heavy knocks against sheffield so I expect to see a lot of our fringe players in key positions

| Rohan should now be up to speed on performance and attitude and he has to demonstrate he has the aptitude to shake things up in this department and put out a team that gives 100% for 80mins.

I'm so uninterested, I keep forgetting there's actually a game on. I keep thinking of things to do with my Sunday before realising later I'm going to Odsal for a match.

I'm like that. I'll go to this one because it's Fax and it's normally a good game to watch, even when we do lose. I doubt I'll turn up for the others though. They'll count my season ticket anyway so they won't be missing out.
If he plays a bunch of Academy players in the other games I might turn up to see how they go, but that'll be it.

| Something tells me that we won't see Gaskell on Sunday. Hope we do as I would like to see him pairing with a proper scrum half for a change.

| Not fussed either way to be honest.
Despite my not caring....[? to beat Fax pretty much does make the rest of the games totally meaningless and that would be better acchieved with match fit blokes, imo. I think for everyone's self respect we need to beat them this time - we've been embarrassed too often by them already to suffer another.

I see your point but I think we have a much better chance of beating Fax with Gaskell playing. Besides that I work in Halifax and can't face the ridicule I would get if we lose again.
