JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.

There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT:

The other thread was locked for going down that route and inside 2 pages of the new one started by the moderator they're at it again.

York are a well run side on the up.

Can't wait to see them in their new ground. 150years old and operating outside the so called "heartland".

Just wanted to get that in before the super duper league fans get the thread locked.

Re: York : Wed Sep 26, 2018 6:43 pm  
I've attended most of York's home and away matches this season. Its been great seeing everything click into place, especially when at the start of 2017 it didn't look like they'd be in the fixture list plus its just over a year ago that they lost at Oxford!

I think Super League is some way off. Now is the time to consolidate themselves as a solid Championship club - something along the lines of a Batley or Featherstone. Then let's think about SL.

Crowds are slowly increasing, I've included a few stats below, but still a lot of work to be done to tap into other potential audiences - disgruntled York City FC fans, those who currently go down the A64 to Headingley or Wheldon Road, plus there's tourists, a big student population and the racecourse crowd. The new stadium will be a huge help. Bootham Crescent makes Wheldon Road seem like paradise!

"I'm sorry, but I would hope that we would beat Cas with a 1 day turnaround."

An arrogant Wigan fan a few days before we stuffed them 18-4 at the JJB.

I do hope that they consolidate into a Championship club as they appear to be a well run club. I think SL is a long way off but stranger things have happened. The new stadium could be an issue as it is on the outskirts of the city and is only accesible by car.
