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.

Quote ="El Rey"I had to force myself to type it pal.'" />
respect your opinion, your views in the game and everything i know you do for the club, but im sadly one of the walkers away, and never thought that would happen, and its mainly as other have said that its become very very boring, its an enternment business we are in and people rightly makes choices about how they spend their money, and of course, time. />
in my case today i sat in the sun read a good book and didnt get fed up watching the hospice years of something i once cared about.

Quote ="les-goose"The club have already lost a load of money with the amount of walk up fans staying away.I would say we are now down to the hardcore season ticket holders and the club have had that money months ago.Trouble is when it looks like the team don't want to put the effort in it gets harder to continue giving your support.'" />
When has it ever been easy being a Wakey fan though? Gotta stick with them through thin and thinner imo,
I don't buy this no effort idea either, we are badly organised and low on confidence but that second half today showed that they are up for it. Admittedly some individuals aren't giving 100%, which is unacceptable and something that RA needs to address. />
The buck really does land at Agar's feet however, absolutely no excuse for the lack of structure and ideas displayed in the first half today, in what was a very important game, even though we are missing most of our linebreakers.

There could not be a worse time to walk away. />
As people have already said coaches,, players, and management come and go,but the club we support will always be there. />
Or will it?
There's the rub. />
Walk away now and there may well be nothing to walk back to. |

I'm still seething now from the totally inept & heartless performance. />
I'm still a fan though...have been for many many years. />
The next few weeks will be interesting. |

The sentiment is a good one but i think many, especially within the club, don't realise the depth of feeling about this issue and the immense dissatisfaction felt regarding the club at the present time. The financial mis-management of the previous regime and the subseqquent fire sale of players was the straw that broke the camels back for many and they walked away at the end of last season, and not all were just the floating fans either , some were people who had been attending for years.
Now with a coach that has taken a team still with some talent and coached it all out of them, along with the desire they had for the shirt, many of those who remain are totally and utterly fed up. Put it this way i wouldn't pay twenty quid a game to watch the turgid, uncommitted crap we are being dished up right now so i don't blame anyone for staying away. Times are tough and money is tight, everything spent has to be fully justifiable. My season ticket is the only reason i and my better half are walking through the gates as i couldn't justify the £40-50 a week it would cost for me and the mrs to go. What we are getting served up just isn't worth it. It's the perceived lack of desire that is the major issue and it seems to me that Agar has lost the dressing room and they themselves are trying to force change. The fans only real way to voice their feeling on the matter is to hit the club where it hurts the most, in its pocket. People are voting with their feet and i expect against London it will be more or less season ticket holders only.
I feel that this though could be helped by the club being pro-active and getting rid of the major excuse of those non-attendees. Mr Carter has to be seen to act to rectify the issue if he wants people to back the club, simple as that. The longer it is left to fester the more damage will be done. This is a two way street, the club needs to meet us half way. Agar must go now for the good of the club. />
Staying away will affect the club but as it stands now it is likely for many to just be a temporary measure as a method of protest. But change has to happen pretty damn quick to ensure that it doesn't become a permanent state of affairs for many. |
