I've still not decided yet and neither has my dad. We were chatting about this yesterday and are really undecided about whether to get a pass or not but the trouble is we are top row of the eaststand and bang on the halfway line, the view does not get any better tbh and losing that spot is what is keeping me thinking.

Ditto

Hubby reckons we only save the price of 3 matches (we always lose one for hols, and this and that anyway)...He said if we go and it is dire we have forked out hundreds, but if things improve the cost is minimal and would probably even itself out if we miss a couple (drinks, parking etc) .....I am not sure though, but I have to admit the h/back situation is not good and the signs indicate the same old problems.

I know i shouldnt wish this but i really do hope our pass sales drop from the 9500 this year down to 8500 or 8000. We've said on here for years that nothing will change at FC unless it starts to hit the club in the pocket.

You maybe right...we are that faithful they even named a fecking shirt after us

as i understand anyway noble still might be at the crusaders next season in a upstairs capacity director of rugby if the penrith move dosent happen. im not a big agar fan at all dont think hes the man to bring trophies to the club but id rather have agar then noble, as long as the club progress again next season on and off the feild then i will be happier. better points diffrennce, better attacking brand, and id like to see some o the youngsters given games this year eg nicklas,lynne,cunno,briscoe,kent dont think crooks,green ar ready yet.

Not a Noble fan and wouldn't want to see him here, however if I were given a choie between the 2 I would plump for Noble every time.

I'd heard that to get their costs down they'd let Noble and Sharp both go and that they would be running with a skeleton staff.

My feelings are similar. I have the added complication of a 120 mile round trip to every home game, too. If I'm honest, I can't [ireally[/i afford a pass, and I just don't know whether it's worth the financial stretch.

120 mile trip

...well that would make my mind up pick your games, travelling all that way in Feb & March to find out at the last minute we have no h/backs not good

120 mile round trip - 60 miles each way. It's still a fair old hike to watch boring rugby though.

I make an 8 mile round trip and it is a fair old hike to watch boring rugby, then listen to Blunderside all the way home



Do you work Fridays as well ? if so it must be one big rush.

The wife works Fridays and uses the car for work. She usually finishes at 17.30, but it can be later. I'll probably miss at least the 3 or 4 'free' games because of her finishing late. Like I said, I'm literally only considering it because I don't want to lose my reserved seat.

I pretty much agree with this comment standee

snap!!! 120 mile round trip for me too

but i do get to all home games,and also more or less all away games.both me and the lad have passes,and i've just sorted next year's out.

magic weekend all booked,and will purchase the tickets this week!!

You must be one of those true fans you hear so much about on here.

no we are just plain mad!!!!

370 miles round trip for me now, hence I'm not comitting to making it every other week, not to watch Radford and Dowes plodding up and down the field.

If people want to keep their seat get a kids pass and pick your games

It's not even a 10 mile round trip for me but that same exciting prospect is enough to put anyone off making it !!



Progress eh ?

I see the HDM have recycled Dowes glowing report for Sharp from Cumbria months ago, the off season really sucks!

It just irritates me to see random players in big headlines, week after week, telling us all how we're going to rip up SL again.

Sorry Mr. Dowes but you can all do your talking on the pitch !! (if we're lucky enough to see you on it)

But it keeps James Smailes in a job.
