Fair do's Chris. A person's assessment of their own safety is their's to make and it is wrong of me to try and persuade otherwise unless I seriously believe your judgement is flawed.
All I can see is Fax fans staying away from POR and Fev fans saying sod it to going to the shay!
Our clubs will have to lessen their budgets by that amount. Not a lot in real terms but as margins at championships clubs are so tight it's bound to have an impact.
Still, safety & security trumps income any day of the week.
I understand this RFF, Our club will not have to lesson the budget because this is the only fixture this happens , Fev cannot say the same, this year alone there has been issues with Leigh, Barrow and Halifax yet again, go on Leigh's board, the GF in blackpool will attract more spectators from them just due to the fact that Fev are not in it,We get fantastic away support from every other team without issue, Leigh, widnes etc bring plenty, have a good bit of banter and shouting and then go home. Your own forum users are turning there back on their club from what they witnessed last night and your crowds have been shrinking all year, Martin Overton has stepped down 2 weeks ago and your chairman out and back in, I dont wish another west yorkshire club go down but with gates like you have, these issues cropping up time and time again then its only a matter of time before possible administration, selling of players and a less competative team, Renovations to the stadium and SL aspirations are even further away that they were.
