| A couple of big signings would maybe encourage fans to come back.

Neither did I until I checked on our ticketing website. Over £100 for 3 adults is crazy. Needs to be sub £30

I was thinking more about season ticket reduction, hopefully a new better stadium deal helps that too.'"
Not too sure about a better stadium deal now the wheels have fallen off at Hull City
Seems the turk is not as wealthy as has been made out
Just had to pay over £1 million for the new pitch and are now struggling to find players to field a competitive team all which will impact the amount of spectators they now get through the door next season and the expected revenue which may be well below expectations

I agree and have said several times the only way this club will bring back lost fans and add fans is not just a winning team but a team that has several star names
Nothing better in R/L than seeing fast elusive running from half back and backs that have the pace and strength to break the line and score from distance.
Albert Kelly,Ratu created excitement as soon as they had the ball.
Certainly wont do that with the signings currently made

| I havent been to a game this season and dont give a if people say im not a supporter. Took my ex and kids to the home derby last year, we got tonked, took my kids to the last home game against Leeds last year, we got tonked, kids said it was rubbish, i agreed, club was a joke from top to bottom starting with Pearson. But hopefully hes on his way out now, Thirkills money seems to be getting spent well and we have finally rugby men at the club, im seeing a much improved squad for next year and hopefully improved performances with some grit and on that basis im coming back to the fold next year

I thought Ratu was brilliant. He switched to league at a relatively late age after only playing 7's union. I remember Radford saying how quickly he adapted to the league and was a dream to coach. It was a shame he went back to union as he was a seriously good player and getting better. Probably the fastest winger in SL at the time. I don't think he has had a particularly illustrious career back in union as he has been plagued by injury. Would have loved to have kept him but we can't compete with union as far as money is concerned.

Was our average crowd much better when we had Ratu and Kelky in the same side, didn't we have a record run of defeats in that time?
Really hard to sign star names these days I don't think a club in SL has signed a better and more influential player than Asista.

| Despite having a pass I’ve only been to a few home games this season.
I suppose the fact all games are on tv is an influence on that but the 2 biggest factors for me are the stadium and the day of games.
I just don’t enjoy us playing at the mkm anymore. It’s supposed to be a community stadium used equally by both professional teams. But all I see is City pictures and advertisements. It just doesn’t feel like home to me. Get our own stadium and I would be more likely to attend.
I’m also not keen on Saturday afternoon games. Traffic in the city on a Saturday is horrendous and when sat there thinking shall I go my thoughts turn to “I can’t be bothered to sit in traffic when I can watch it on tv”. Especially the way we were playing at the start of the season. Friday night or Sunday afternoon would be better as far as I’m concerned?

I noticed that the east stand has been re-named the Chris Chilton stand. Now I'm not disrespecting him as he was a City legend but if anyone deserves such an honour it is Johnny Whiteley.

I dont know but its players like Kelly and Ratu that provided the excitement.
Asiata is a good signing but as a forward he wont provide the excitement when he receives the ball like they did
You only have to look at Wigan when either French or Field have the ball it lifts the fans.
I know its difficult but its what we need if the club want to attract back lost fans or new fans to the game.

It was actually renamed a couple of years ago although to be be honest I'm not sure anyone really refers to it that way. Even on City's website there are mentions of "the East Stand ticket office", for example. main issue for me is the hideous Tiger print murals on the gate entrances.

It's just the fact that if you are joint tenants albeit in name only, if you acknowledge on of the clubs legendary players by naming a stand after him you should as a matter of respect do the same for the other club as well, especially after what Whiteley has achieved for us and the game as a whole.
I find that Tiger print just looks tacky and embarrassing.
