And you will still be rolling out the same excuses why you can't get more than a 4,000 average gate. I don't think that RL is the No.1 sport in Leeds, but the Rhinos manage to attract brilliant support. I'm no fan of Hull City, but last weekend they attracted 21,000 for a friendly the day before 9,000 people rolled up in the same venue for an RL cup quarter final. Please don't make Hull out to be an "RL only" town, 'cos it ain't.
Capital of the North? That's quite funny.
