| I know we have plenty of our own problems at the moment but looking at next seasons league set up it is even more yorkshire heavy than ever. With Fev, Fax, Sheff, Batley, York, Hunslet, Dewsbury and Keighley we are going to be over to yorkshire a hell of a lot. The only other 'away' trip is to our very own stadium to play Swinton!! At least we are now an Expansion team in the league
Also with the loss of Widnes there will be very little in the way of away support except a few from Fax and Fev. With Widnes going up to SL and previously strong teams like Barrow and Whitehaven having been relegated recently the league doesn't look as 'strong' as it has done. If we don't get ourselves sorted out financially then I can see it being a real 2 horse race between Fax and Fev, with Sheff and Batley putting out good teams as per usual.
Genuinely worried about ALL clubs in our league at the moment and not just us. The league just doesn't look strong at all, bet Widnes are glad they have got out when they did.

| Some good points made and what does worry me is that our league does look very poor ,I do fear for the future at our level.

Thats a statement others should follow at least for one game anyway, If all the Leigh fans stayed away from the Sheffield game for example see how they like it.

| Funnily enough I tend to enjoy our away games more than our home ones , and so I will continue to travel
The issue isn't , they don't come , so we shouldn't go , the issue should be , let's get more traveling
Our league looks poor , just making it poorer helps nobody

| Indeed it does not just look poor but this comp is not pulling in sufficient speccies.
There will be only 9 league games and 2nrc games before the qualifying draw then if you get a home draw against a non relegation league side in the Challenge Cup their season ticket holding fans can get in for nothing which costs the Championship club money. It is crazy and short sighted of non relegation clubs to do this to championship clubs but they do not care.
Average attendances last season for the 10 teams in next seasons championship were :- 2379 2096 1652 1235 1194 1096 1042 829 792 and 643.
Ours is the first average crowd and the last one was Swinton's.

Frank will be difficult to get more than 2379 aswell.As you may not be so competitive depending on the outcome.I think the RFL should do more for Championship clubs.

The free ticketing for Challenge cup ties has been dropped frank , everybody pays from now on , another failed RFL experiment
