If it will take a generation to get fans back, should we mothball the club for 20 years and start again? What's the point in trying in that case?

Hudders kept going with gates of 400, they have multplied their gates ten fold.


Even if we drop down to 3000 again i wouldnt be fussed, my only issue is i wouldnt be able to walk to games, costello is too far, so it'd be a bus

Cockle is a term of endearment, derived from the Latin for little heart. Deary me.

Plenty on here stating how next years squad will be the best ever, new players are outstanding etc etc.

How many have stated that next year's squad will be our best ever squad? Cite me 5 posters claiming this please.

Didn't Ken Davy sell his business for like £75 million? Maybe that helped.

I've checked and can't find any.

6th in the top flight would be above average in the context of my time supporting the club. So not delighted but about where we are. We don't have the resources of the Top 4, or Warrington, or Salford. Unfortunately.

Doubt he's ploughed even 15% of that into the club

In my time of supporting the club, we've been worse off, a lot worse off, the relative riches we have now and the level playing field with the salary cap we should have an even chance of being on a par with Huddersfield, they made top 4 with our fat reject running the show

£11m is still a lot of cash.
