You don't know much about the demographics of both Leeds Rhinos Fans and Leeds United fans do you, loads of Cas Fev Wakey fans are LUFC fans Leeds utd are a regional side massive fan base right across the country, York, Selby, Harrogate Wakefield met, Rhinos attendances wont be affected by Utd, the Rhinos where still the biggest Attended team in British Rugby Last time utd were in the premier league and champions league.
Sadly RL as an attendance problem across the game thats a real issue, but thats another story.


Leeds United have a fairly healthy fan base in Hull fwiw. Mainly guys in 40s and 50s who grew up with a very good Leeds team. Think Liverpool are the main team colours around the town even before recent success?Then the long suffering Hull City fans who draw in both KR and FC suppprters.
Will Citys and Huddersfield Towns recent woes swell the local RL teams crowds? I suppose if a fan supports both Leeds Rhinos and Leeds United then finances might dictate only buying 1 season ticket? Personally im quite keen to see how Leeds fare in Premier League?

If both Leeds Utd and Leeds Rhino's fans do what exactly, don't use big words if it confuses you.

There must be ten million Man Utd fans in this country but they don't go and watch them they're simply armchair fans for various reasons, like distances and no available seating, this isn't the case at Elland Rd who are a regional side with a fairly large fan base not a massive one as you imply, which rather proves the point when they could not fill their stadium in the championship, these closet Leeds Utd fans you mention, what follow Cas, Fev, Wakey don't go and watch Leeds Utd they watch Cas, Fev and Wakey, this isn't the issue here anyway, what I said was with a hint of sarcasm if you hadn't noticed was that now Leeds Utd are back in the big time there is a very good chance of those glory seekers what left Utd to go and watch the rhino's when they started winning being lulled back to football then your boast of being the best attended side in super league would be an empty one, I can understand to some point your touchiness on the subject as RL crowds are increasingly diminishing every year added to that your rather large debt for ground improvements which at the moment you can't service through either your attendances or your corporate side of things, keep your chin up Utd will probably go straight back down anyway.

No you have talked a load of bollox and are now trying to back track, as i said when Leeds utd were in the top 4 in premier league and champions league uefa cup semis, Leeds Rhinos were the biggest supported club in the game they still are and still will be when we are back to normal, you are delusional thinking they will lose half their support just because Leeds utd are promoted. I no a lot of united dans whe 3 years ago starting watching Cas because utd were poop. Plenty of glory supporters at any club any sport.

Delusional, didn't know Leeds Utd had played in the European champions League, Leeds Rhino's might have been and maybe they are still the best supported team in super league and maybe they still will be when things go back to normal, I think your confusing me with someone what gives a toss, I never said they will lose half their support because of United's elevation to the premier league what I said was that the glory supporters who left may go back now there back dining at the top table, you said that the Cas fans were watching Utd and now your saying they left Leeds in they're thousands to watch Cas, can't comment on much else because your not making much sense, maybe it's just as well you've chosen to ignore my other points, go sleep it off :roll:
