Sad news if correct about SM.......I would be happy to contribute if there were to be a collection to present him with a token of our appreciation.....other than the waste that was MacKay he was the only one left in the dark off season of 13/14......
JESUS WEPT 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.

One was replaced by a plant and the other replaced by an air conditioning unit. As you will have noticed both the plant and air con unit have done a far better job bringing in sponsorship etc.

Which begs the question why the 2 departed were employed at all.

Steve’s reason for leaving, we’re 2 fold. He got frustrated at what he called lack of ambition at the club, shown by the failure to fix simple things which frustrated him, Trailfinders had a new facilities guy come in, Steve spent a day with him on a game day pointing out the issues, lots of notes taken but nothing happened, so he decided he could not contribute anymore. And he decided he had done his time. Nothing to do with any management of the team or any backroom fighting.
Everything to do with management, they are the ones that set up the contracts for facilities and manage the day to day business interface. Steve was an end user, and as a consequence of either mis- management, lack of action by mgt and/or lack of business communication he left.
Root cause was lack of mgt action in one form or another (given the information you have provided). Steve is the doer not the decision maker. He raises issues, mgt action them if appropriate Do you see the difference? Maybe I shouldn't have asked that question given your reasoning and lack of understanding of business responsibility.....and you default setting of defending the business.
Ps you said 2 fold and only gave one reason whats the other
pps you do know you can edit a post after posting you don't have to post again to explain your initial mistake.
He had just decided he done his time! Second reason. Can’t really see where I am defending the business, I said it was nothing to do with management of the team, Or any in fighting or general disquiet. And I didn’t defend anyone merely stated his reasoning.
On the facilities at Trailfinders, apparently the RFU have no issue with players and match officials using the same toilets as fans! Hence no great push to provide more toilets, they have built more for away players by the way. And that was the RFU inspection when it became a possibility Ealing could have been promoted.
