Credit to the players. They did their best, we can ask no more. The mismanagement over the years is hurting the club yet again.

Edited to say the club might want to look at the ticketing system. Having spent £20 to look into the sun, I wasn't too pleased to be greeted by flashing lights and beeping noises telling me my ticket was invalid. Credit to the steward who quickly worked out I was genuine and not trying it on so let me in. Wouldn't have been a good first impression if I was a new fan though.

Bought a pair of tickets, first one went through ok , second one came up as ‘ not valid for this fixture’, but the steward tried it on a different scanner and it was ok.
Got the impression it had been happening all afternoon

Any new fans are going to be put off for life

The best thing that can happen now is that no new fans turn up...crowds stay as low as possible and a new start in the Champ

I would far rathe have paid my £20 to watch that Broncos team play a Batley or Widnes today

I won't be back this season.....

Wimbledon is an absolutely awful place to get to on every way ...by car, tube or train

Probably worth adding I spent the match with Wire fans I met in Toulouse back when we played them at Carcassonne. They tell me Wire rested three and were missing a fourth due to a bereavement.

I'm told their third in line is very young, very highly rated and vey short by pro RL standards. Are we begining to see the high tackle changes already influencing what clubs look for in terms of height in some positions?
