There are some teams in League one chucking buckets of cash at players. Some are doing better than us - and some decidedly worse. Hornets have always done the best we can with whatever we've got and I don't see that any different now.

Serious question: what is it about the match-day experience you don't like? Hornets holds up well against every other club in League 1 and as good as some in the Championship. No club in this division has money to blow on pre-match/half-time 'entertainment', so I'm not sure what you expect from match-day. I don't know what you think is 'rotting' - but the club's in as good shape as it's been for a while. What would you suggest to improve things?

Protests at Eagles v Hunslet game
Billy King's Boots replied to mozzauk's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
We were at the game last Friday and seriously contemplated standing on the hill and watching for nowt. Our observations were that there's absolutely nothing around the ground, so don't get there early. And the floodlights are embarrassingly poor. -
Elland Road Expansion

This. Legroom is worse than Old Trafford - and that's worse than Ryanair. -
Best for sightlines/facilities is CommBank Stadium. Best for authentic RL heritage is Henson Park, closely followed by Lidcombe Oval, with Bramley a close third. Best for Atmosphere was Central Park when it was rammed. Best for a day trip is Workington or Whitehaven: drive through the lakes, bit of lunch lovely. Best for a few days away = Edinburgh Worst for sightlines/facilities = Whitebank, Sheffield, Wentworth Park (just move that bl00dy greyhound scoreboard) and, since the development, Shark Park Cronulla: all the General Admission views are compromised. Worst for authentic RL heritage is either Salford Community Stadium or Sheffield Worst for atmosphere = Alexander Stadium, Birmingham or Stade Ernest Argeles in Blagnac Worst for a a day trip is Barrow. Worst for a few days away = Blackpool

Their end-game will be to merge all teams west of the pennines into a massive regional superclub. Similarly all the clubs east of the pennines, and the three cumbrian clubs. Midlands, London and Cornwall will all be merged into a Southern superclub - and we'll have four massive clubs playing each other five times a season in some massive National Four Regions competition until we all die of boredom.
