That's entirely what they are doing though. In your desperation to defend them and portray anyone complaining about the journey as a whinger you have forgotten or decided to ignore one thing. The club has decided to play on a Sunday despite knowing that local transport links are much worse that day. Forgetting what the journeys from the home counties may be like (generally slower and more prone to disruption on a Sunday) just the final part of the journey is likely to add an hour to the time taken on a Saturday in a round trip. When the club has decimated its own support, this seems utterly self defeating to me. Still I am sure you can find another spurious comparison to belittle those put out. How about travelling London fans whine more than Cas fans who can walk to Wheldon Road.

Just like at a County Cricket outground. :lol:

God knows what they'd do to ensure payment if a bunch of herberts like Salford rocked up.

Cross that bridge when/if they come to it I suppose.
Was it the game against Bristol that you went to? I'd have thought they'd have a fair amount of travelling support, some of them a bit boisterous. Though nothing like Salford.

Taff, people whinged when we played on Sat, people whinged when we play Sunday. At least we know which day it's going to be, and for those that drive Sunday traffic likely to be lighter.
Not sure why you have decided it's desperation to defend the club, it is what it is, if you want to come as I say then there is the train, bus, bike skate board loads of ways getting around, if you continually want to find reasons not to come fine, it's you thats going to miss out on watching rugby league in London.
Personally Sunday suits me, means I get to be involved in the amateur game on a sat. So I get to take part and watch. Sure that was one of the arguments against playing on Saturdays so sunday means those that play the game can play on sat and on sun support.
As for me defending ir not defending the club, merely saying it is what it is, we can't change it so might as well accept it and find the best way to make it work for you

In answer to BroncOnion it was the Bristol game I went to.

Their fans were boisterous but good natured.

Unlike Salford who only manage to be boisterous.

The problem is for the club most fans have not accepted what has happened over the years and voted with their feet. It will be interesting to see if the crowds are smaller next season with the move to Ealing. If they do grow it will be standing room only.

It's pretty much standing room only now.

Although in addition to the temporary stand there a couple of rickety benches which are probably classed as seating. :lol:
