You’re really struggling here tony , you’ve gone away for a few hours and that’s the best you can come up with .

Try some prozac, Listenup, heard it helps. Just popped on rlfans for some entertainment reading the Leeds Whinos re the Catalans drubbing. You wouldn't last 2 minutes on there, pal.

Not a big fan of anti depressants tbh , I prefer natural remedies to fluctuating levels of dopamine and serotonin. Your erratic responses tell me you’re not quite capable of managing these areas in your life , I recommend some cognitive behavioural therapy sessions. You can talk to me tony .

Gets asked a perfectly reasonable question about evidence that lowering admission prices increases crowds and maintains income streams and how it has worked out this season for Keighley the team you quoted as the model to follow and answers as above

Who’s talking tripe?

Anyway I thought you were ignoring my posts, you’ve been taking a look haven’t you.

Thing is everything has gone up , rent/ mortgages, gas , electric, lurpac lol , some wages have gone up , personally I don’t have a problem with the price increase but can see why it will possibly antagonise some fans .

Earlier this week I booked 2 tickets In the stalls for a 2 hour show at the Vicky theatre in town and it cost £63.50 and a extra £1.50 Per ticket for insurance.

£66.50 for a couple of hours entertainment and not a rugby ball in sight.

I went to see a show , it was about a guy called tony , it only lasted two minutes, he ran off the stage crying. It was free too .

Another reason for staying away is some people are simply not interested in particular sports including rugby league.
Nothing against FC Town and having played at county level myself, these days I have little interest in football and if I got an offer to watch them for a full season for free I wouldn’t be going.

The older I get the less interest I have in sports, feels different now , rugby league is probably my last roll of the dice it represents the working class which football no longer does . No affinity is no infinite support.

Unfortunatley that is the reality facing a lot of our fans next season, besides finding a wealthy backer to subsidise that I am not sure what the answer is. Ive been to less games this season than I have been to in probably the last 30 years or so, not just down to the quality but its the first time in a while where given the choice I would start to pick and choose my games. Pretty much all the people I used to go with has dwindled to the last few due to money constraints and its far cheaper to have a catch up in a pub over a beer than it is to have a catch up at the game especially when there really isn't an atmosphere at most games and you can watch them for free on YT a couple of days later. Add in to that the kids getting older which adds to the costs on match day and its just getting a more and more unrealistic option for families.

God knows what the answer is because I think we can all see realistically the way that rugby league at this level is headed at the moment.
