That was aimed at the bottom four superleague sides.

It took Leigh 3 years of hard work and a year of complete failure in the 8's to gain promotion, the previous 2 clubs who dropped from SL in 2014 have both struggled to get close to promotion again (Bradford in the MPG being the closest). Hull KR will have a tough enough job even making it into the top 4 in the championship, let alone worrying the 4 SL clubs who they will come up against. The championship isn't going to be the walk in the park you think it will be, Leigh knew how to play it because they had been there, you haven't

They will 10000000% be in the top four.

Just like Bradford would be in the top 4 of the championship in 2016, and Leeds and Hudds would be in the top 8 of SL in 2016?

Nothing is a given in this sport, to assume a club is anywhere near safe before a ball is thrown is naïve at best. The championship has some tough clubs in it and HKR aren't going to find it as easy as many suspect.

I'm sure this thread is about season ticket sales, still if it makes you feel better to stick the boot into us at every opportunity then feel free.

No one at the club are expecting an easy ride. It's going into the unknown. But the club are expecting top two next year. After all, most of the squad are superleague standard .
You and others think differently and that's fine by me. The closer Rovers can fly under the radar then that's all good for the club.

Partly my fault SRAO , so back on topic , any idea how your ST sales are doing ? , at Leigh we keep hearing rumours around 3K +

It's ok I just wonder why people have to have a go at us at any given chance, also it's funny how we have a lack of investment when we have just had six points deducted for spending to much, apparently the only club who spent to much, no really you couldn't make it up.

As for the on topic bit, I have no clue how many Salford have sold but just to make some people feel better probably not many !!

Do sale sell out their games at the place they share with Salford. I think their first season there, they had decent gates. I wonder if their attendances have improved even more with Wigan fans turning up to watch Charnley.

I fully expect KR will be Championship top 2 in 2017
(Which is great for the extra home game)

Nearly 'all' the squad need to be SL standard & those who aren't, at least top Championship quality.

Flying under the radar is difficult if you are winning nearly all your games, some Leigh fans got a bit too cocky in 2015, maybe a few at the Club did too but Neil Jukes fixed that up.

The problem with 2017 for KR will be that everyone knows about the 2015 Q8's & how easy it is to lose your SL spot, therefore I reckon all SL Clubs will be better prepared.

For my money, I see a Widnes or Salford v KR MPG.

No one lost their SL status in the 2015 qualifiers.

All good points. The Leigh of 2016 is definitely the model to follow.
A few things can go for you and against you during the season. Kr had sick notes all over the squad last year on massive contracts giving back zero value, and with no movement with the salary cap, we were stuck with a team effectively worth only half the cap. All the while with all the middle 8 teams snapping up some quality players.
It would be prudent for the likes of Salford, Widnes, Leigh's (no offence) of this world not blowing all their cap before the start of the season, that's what effectively brought us down.
Anyways, this is a thread of season ticket sales. How's everyone doing?

Toronto Wolfpack over 3,000 for League One. Fantastic effort that.

I see a Hull KR vs Toulouse MPG.

Out of curiosity which Superleague club do you think will finish 6th in the middle 8's if the above statement is to happen?

4,000 at their last league game- they've lost a lot of fans since moving to the soulless AJ Bell

Jean have you lost your love for London?

Surely that should be Londinium

I went to Sale v Wasps out of a bit of curiosity, it's local to me, it was Charnley's debut and it was on the back of a free ticket (my pal's wife is a teacher and Sale had swamped schools in Trafford and Salford with free tickets)

I'm not sure how reliable crowd figures are if the free tickets are a norm, but, it was over priced

Hull KR have gone past the 5000 barrier and are on the brink of exceeding 5200 which according to Neil Hudgell would be a 5 year high for the club.

Quite astounding really.

Add another 10000 and that would be something to crow about, for all clubs!

What a ridiculous thing to say but no surprise really looking who posted it

It doesn't surprise me that their sales are doing well, as a casual spectator the prospect t of watching your team win championship teams on a regular basis has to be more exciting that the prospect of watching them lose to super league clubs. It gives you something to get excited about in the run up to the game, and the fact that knowing games won't be moved around at the whim of Sky also has to help. Good on them for selling so well, I hope it continues if they have a second year in the championship

To top 5000 S/T sales in The Championship is excellent.
Credit to the KR fans and lets hope they are back in SL soon.

Agreed.
