I would have thought the make up of the crowd was very important. Surely we want a large home presence
A, to support the team
B, to show the RFL we are serious.

yes, but would also like to see the shay full with any crowd for a fax game.

The worst of it is that the team's lack of form couldn't have come at a worse time both for sales of CC tickets and also for adding impetus to our already slim chance of a franchise. After all the shouting we have done about how on-field performance should be a major factor it seems that we now are incapable of winning a game.

I agree. But.... the RFL have clearly shown that it doesn't matter one little bit what happens on the pitch.

does anyone know which stand the Bradford allocation will be? and if they're separating us from them? would be good to be a mix as i thought like with the Featherstone match when the majority of them we're shoved over the far side the atomsphere was sort of lost and with it being Bradford i'm expecting a good day with some banter from the fans etc.

Ah, but it suddenly will matter when it comes to Fax!

Actually, I was just thinking the other day that once a team gets into SL performance on the pitch ceases to matter. Think about it. With all the debate going on all the time about who should be kicked out of SL when does anyone EVER mention performance or league position? It is always about grounds, attendances or finances.

All the Skircoat Stand and half the East Stand, I believe.

If this is the case, then Bradford will have 3/4 of the seated area on the long sides. To television viewers it will give the impression of a Bradford home game......not what we want surely.

If Bradford do get half the East Stand I would hope that it is the area with the large hospitality cut-out. I find this area most distracting when sitting in the south end of the East Stand (which I rarely do for that reason). The north end of that stand is, in my view, the best for viewing. and Fax fans should have the opportunity to be there.

As usual. a totally useless answer. So you would be happy with, say 8000, bull"hites and 1000 Fax supporters.
