Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us. If you are having problems logging in, please try a different browser or platform, if problems persist then email support@rlfans.com

Quote ="GUBRATS"Yes but they didn't even have telly in Hull back then

Fun facts, Hull had cable TV back then (we got it in 1980), well ahead of most of the country, Rediffusion had brought out 'starview' a mainly films subscription service with kids TV as well and my first introduction as an 11 year old to the lovely Rachel Welsh in 'mother, jugs and speed'  icon_heartkiss.gif" alt="icon_heartkiss.gif" title="HEARTKISS" />
Hull has always being one of the leading areas both in innovation and trialling radio/tv/telephone services.
Back in the early 80s when we were having one of our few spells in our history of actually winning stuff our attendances went from strength to strength 82/83 we had 15x 10,000+ attendances and 14 the following year. Certainly the aggregate and av home attendance records were broken since the two division formation.
Can you imagine now the hordes that used to come through the gates back in the sports heyday of the 30s/40s/50s every week, get your head around a semi final of the challenge cup attracting almost 70,000 fans!

Yep. Got to make regular games a social activity and the big games we have to make into events.

What you are describing is ' atmosphere ' , you don't get that with meaningless matches in less than 3/4 full stadiums

The AFL which is a serious marketing machine, by global standards, has the money to do it real well. The NRL is a distant 2nd fiddle to this fine example.
