Yep happened to me as well likely for other reasons on other matters but as regarding buying advanced tickets and other things that I lost out on it had the opposite effect and I said "I won't do that again."

Despite what the spin doctors would have people believe nothing is foolproof and guaranteed to be the best option and everything else is below par.

Overall my experiences on things like this is pay on the day covers most things that are unforseen and could go wrong.

Just seen a leaflet in the local chippy for the fax game , what a genius idea, deffo going to the game now .

Privately means directly.

Social media is in addition to direct contact which as stated is an open invitation to former and new individuals to get involved at various levels, last week they got slated for not advertising in certain areas this weeks their being slated in the areas they are using, nothing ever seems good enough.

To portray the social media efforts as "just banging a post on social media" is just inaccurate and typical of how things are spun every time over what the club does or doesn't do.

I don't know why the club hasn't contacted the people you know but emails, phone calls etc work both ways and all it takes is for someone to pick up the phone and respond to the open invitation and surely when the club is fighting for survival that's not too much to ask from life long supporters?

Regarding this forum I've personally spoken to several at the club past and present and to a man to put it mildly they don't view it as being representative of the club or a place to come for support because of the lifetime of negative comments from certain individuals some of which go way beyond just having a moan.

The club don't like this forum because they have no control over it.

There was a very popular Facebook Group at one point named "Fax Matches", the person behind this was brought into the club in some capacity and it was closed down. The club have a degree of control over the "Fans Forum" on facebook I believe nowm I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure it is backed by them

There was a popular independent podcast, the people behind that brought into the club, now there's no podcast.

It might not be representative of the club as a whole, but it represents a section of people's views.

This forum being totally independent proves the point.

That very fact means people on here are free to say whatever they like as often as they like and over time you would expect the law of averages would show the positive mixed in with the negative.

This isn’t the case on here, by freedom of choice the views and comments of a few are constantly critical of the club over anything and everything.

Put what’s been said by some on here on any form of advertising and see how many take up offer.

If no one said anything else in a short period of time there would be just 3 serial moaners, a couple of neutrals and little to no normal general rugby league chat found on other forums.

I blame it all on't Russians!

That's IF they don't like it! How can they see negative posts if they don't read them?
Anyway, I think the opinions on here are valid and I respect each and every one of them, all factual and not moaning. The only moaner on here is the one who constantly moans about the alleged moaners!

Fax waiting for the phone to ring from past sponsors who they have not bothered to contact.....

If i'd had a choice of how you come across I couldn't have chosen a better picture.

On a positive note I have managed to persuade some friends to go to the game Sunday telling them how well we are playing and back on the topic of the game it would be a major disappointment if we can't manage to get over the top of Barrow given how we have played in the first two competitive games.
