Apart Rovers away support is generally poor anyway, we certainly can't rely on it anymore.

Personally I have a pass but am boycotting all games and spending not a penny more with the club until a competent, experienced head coach is employed.
It's your prerogative to attend or not, your choice, fair enough. But if you have already paid for a pass that's basically cutting your nose off to spite your face.
You don't have to spend any more money, you have already done that by getting a pass.

I think the only way Pearson will act is either the clubs get so low or we don't make the top 8, I don't want to be in the latter position
So what if he sacks Radford n we're still crap do you go or not, n how long do you stay away or what if he sacks Radford n the new boss has a great start but then gets hammered lots of times in the top eight do ya stop going again. I'd give up mate sports not for you

Not much of a boycott if you have bought a pass. You'll still be included in the attendance.

I'll never stay away from the club, they are part of my life, but if things don't improve with or without a new coach I Won't get a pass next season, I can get cheap tickets most week from work, so a pass for me isn't presenting value for money.
I know enough about sport to tell you we are not getting value for money, we are so boring to watch, I don't mind getting beat, but I at least want to be entertained, instead I'm sat there bored then something is seriously wrong.
I fear for the club in the future the way we are going.

If ya feel show strong give your pass away. You will not be missed. Everyone can see we're crap n it looks like its gonna get worse before it gets better. I don't rate Radford n never have but I don't spit my dummy out when the brown stuff hit the fan
What a totally stupid post! Hell buying a pass not only demonstrates commitment but also gives the club what it needs most , money. I bought a pass in spite of my doubts because not to do so made things worse. Having done that then it's absolutely a pass holders prerogative to either voice their displeasure or leave their seat empty if they feel that's appropriate. I'll probably go but if I had something more pressing on or it's peeing down etc etc then I won't be putting myself out.

Pretty sure Pearson said otherwise to James Smailes in the off season.

However come Friday I reckon I will end up going, just can't give them up.
Devils advocate question. If we had managed to barge over the line from close range (like Leeds can do with Leuluai and Cuthbertson, like St's can with LMS, Like Salford can with Taylor etc etc) and scored 3 converted tries to beat rovers, would you be worried about value for money? If we played the same way but actually own games I personally think most wouldn't care less, we would be winning.
It makes me chuckle some what when I read another thread which someone said they wanted Brian Smith back. If time was taken to look back at how we played during his first 2 seasons you would see the origins of 5 drives and a kick.

Yes, these clubs you mentioned also score try's from they own half something I don't think we have managed this season.
Agree about Smith his success at hull and Bradford were built on defence and forward power,been out if the game too long, although I'd have him over Goulding.
