Once it reaches the stage where you have to start charging them they'll drift away again, e.g. Bullmania was supposedly back last season as the 10,000 crowds returned. Now those gates are back to 7500, presumably because they've stopped the four-quid-a-game farce which the fifty quid passes equated to.

The fact that Dr Koukash is willing to 'get his hands dirty' and publicise the sport to those youngsters overwhelmed by the publicity given to the round ball game should be warmly applauded but you serve notice of your mindset by wishing him away from rugby league and onto 'his next project'.
I am pleased to see that you do appear to be just a 'one-off' from the core HULL KR following,who,in the main,are intelligent and passionate about the sport of rugby league.
