foggieraider13 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Good to see that the boys can get back to training at Craven Park but with the Thunder now playing at Kingston Park will Barrow be able to have a run out on an artificial pitch similar to Kingston Park before they pay the Thunder?

eddo1 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 The sold tickets were evidently 1000 free , i would estimate without our following aprox 100 the net in attendance would have been aprrox 400. for the thunder. Never understand why clubs do this . However when playing away we make the same mistakes , their first try a charge down from a panic field kick and after we had fought back going into the lead ,lo and behold dropped the ball from the restart and conceded a try which was minutes before half time. . So we were always behind the 8 ball for the second half and playing panic passing losing possession early . Early days greenshoots but only 1 conversion from 5 , Not easy positions but will be very important in future games the scoreline could have been 36- 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Thunder Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 There was only free tickets given to the kids playing in the festival 200, everyone else paid! Not to shabby for a non "heartland" area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henage Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Because your not a heartland club , the crowd is ###### and giving free tickets to kids is a rubbish idea . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Healey 13 Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Congratulations on the fantastic attendance yesterday. Any team that takes the initiative to introduce youngsters to our great sport should be applauded not criticised. It appears you have put together a very competitive team and it will be interesting to see how both teams progress during the rest of the season. Look forward to seeing you at our place.

Never understand why clubs do this . I would concentrate on your own teams failings rather than try to highlight issues with our 'poor' attendance. To help you with your maths I have broken the figures down: Attendance: 1,522 Free tickets to young players: 200 (Your approximate) Barrow supporters: 100 Paying Thunder supporters: 1,222 Thought Thunder were okay yesterday, certainly more to come, at times our line speed and creativity was poor. Silly errors gifted Barrow at least two tries. Good to get the win against bookmakers favourites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morty Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Jesus I cant believe the people on here knocking Thunder for trying to get people thro the turnstiles. Well done to Thunder for the victory and the attendance. I think Thunder and the Raiders could be right up there at the end of the season !!
