Premier will have lost others. They were offering year long subscriptions. People took them out, premier dropped the Championship and I and others stopped when our year was up.

There were 2 incidents last season to my knowledge involving Fev fans away that resulted in complaints, the aforementioned one at Cru and one at Leigh (think it involved a plastic bottle being thrown), both were dealt with by the club including some lengthy bans after the second incident. Fev generally travel in decent numbers but with the odd exception the fans are generally noisy but good-natured. There were several hundred (can't remember exact figure but probably 400-500 though to be fair that number was helped by subsidised buses) who came down to the Cup game at the Stoop in 2012 and I don't remember seeing any unsavoury incidents at all, we were in a separate stand but I don't think anyone was out for trouble anyway.

Fev will bring a fair few again, Leigh tend to travel in good numbers these days, Bradford will bring plenty for sure. Fax will probably depend on how they go as a lot of fans seem to have drifted away but if they are going well they are capable of decent away support. Most of the other teams you aren't likely to be seeing great numbers of away supporters, it's a shame Cru aren't in the Championship any more though as their fans though not necessarily big in number were terrific.

Premier also offered big discounts to anyone who rang up to cancel citing lack of RL Championships as the reason, I rang up to do so but decided to stay for the NRL stuff when they reduced my fee for a few months.

400-500?
That's between 6 and 10 coachloads..........good effort if accurate

from memory we had six coaches but I might be wrong...plus others who made their own way there. As I say though IIRC the coaches were subsidised to a degree and it was a Cup game, doubt we'd bring anywhere near that many for an ordinary league game but there will be a reasonable and probably noisy contingent.

Bumpety bump.
have to say.....the nearer we get to season ko the stronger one parties negotiation position gets.

got no facts!

Is this DH genius at work again ?

So, over a week after they were to announce ticketing for 2015 and even after an apology and another set and missed deadline.....nothing?
Also, given that we aren't playing a home pre-season game, could it be that the honeymoon is over with our new LANDLORD?
Brave new dawn....

What do you think's going on? No chance of another move surely?

Whatever is going on, it ought to have been sorted by now. We have a fragile supporter base and this kind of delay reminds me why.

I freely admit to using an ambiguous thread title back on the 1st July 2014 when I said [url=http://retro.rlfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=571348"homeless in 2015"[/url, but what I was sure about was:


I was of course shouted down by the David Hughes appreciation society, the "we've seen it all before association" and also by the well informed member for Barnet FC as to talking out of my 'arris. I may well still be wrong, but if everything is to be as it was in 2014, then I can see no reason for any delay in simply re-issuing last years instructions.

My source is normally right....I stood by their news that we were having to renegotiate terms some 6 months ago and I still stand by them now.

I said in December 2013 that the announcement of a one year deal with ambiguous mentions of 2 years in the initial press releases pointed to blake solly sticking a plaster ( people don't like the word bribe apparently) over the open wound that was us, purely to get us through 2014 and we'd be simple tenants by 2015.

I hope I am wrong

Shambles to actually name a date for the announcement and not stick to it. Better to say "we're working on it, be ready ASAP, we apologise for the delay" than give out wrong info surely

lets go play at Doncaster like everyone else

Yep, we are a total shambles as usual, lmao!

One day they're gonna give us all a heart attack and have a happy, steady stadium set-up, season ticket and match day ticketing sorted, a new kit, in time for Christmas....mmmm....maybe not!

I'm not trying to justify the delay, but they didn't name a date, they said they were "expecting" to announce re season tickets last week.

I don't really understand what's going on, or even what people are trying to infer might be going on.

You are David Hughes........just keep your chequebook handy

Shambolic - the more things change the more they remain the same.

Be busy at keep moat on a Sunday with Sheffield, donny and at mo York their, gonna be like big summer bash every other weekend.

Given up for the first game and now organised something else instead. Amazed nothing has been said about prices. Will now be expecting discounted tickets in the future and will wait to see what happens once the season has started.

They were too busy making a very weird motivational video to play to players and staff at an exclusive event, to worry about the few hundred die hards who will roll up anyway
