Wouldn't say "famous" but we're known in music press

| Quote ="Andy Gilder"You mean like the sort of event that's already been planned and publicised for after the New Zealand game? That kind of event? In addition to the other events that have already been planned and publicised. (I believe there's a dinner with JP, Sinfield and Barrie Mac that has been advertised for quite a while now)
You do realise this isn't "the club" honouring anyone don't you? It's an event being put on by First Direct Arena and Leeds City Council, not the Rhinos.
Like I say, if it's your thing knock yourself out. Enjoy.
Who knows, you could even restrain yourself from flying off into a hissy fit because other people don't share your happy-happy joy-joy fandom. Unlikely, I know.'"
This event quite clearly replaces any homecoming that we would have if we win. If Leeds didn't have one are you seriously suggesting people wouldn't complain about it? Seriously?
As for a hissy-fit I was responding to the plethora of miserable s who are happy to join in these things but only if it doesn't cost them anything. And of course those who take the mick out of such things for no reason.
As I said, if you're a miserable b&stard you can take the p!ss out of an event celebrating 3 of the clubs best ever players in what could be its best ever season.
But only if you're a miserable b&stard.

It's obviously bigger than a regular homecoming but just because you've had something free in the past doesn't mean you should continue to. A homecoming of any sort has costs associated with it.
It's like saying why don't I get in free to the Grand Final.

| why not do both
parade at headingley with no 2 hour build up , open top bus to arena to meet their celebrity fans.
and the family of 4 have probably spent minimum £100.00 on the saturday .
Prob going to get a ticket this aft if capacity turns out to be very limited.
save on the kiwi non event
instead of pigeons could have got kaisers or sam riley to reform 10,000 things

| Pidgin Chancers? You mean the identikit ripoff of the Kaisers (who are also terrible?)
Pass.
Never known two ultimately middle of the road beige bands get so much hype, must be all that hanging on to the coattails of anything Leeds.

Why? You want to attend an event for free.

One event is the trophy winning grand finale to the season
One is a hastily announced event which goes against traditional welcome home parties which the club have previously announced
Again your point was daft

It doesn't matter what the event is. You were complaining about the price and that it should be free. You want to attend an event for free and called it a con that a small charge for admission be levied.

If you class it as a party then you'd look a bit strange to say the least, Each to there own however.
Who really want to go to Headingley for a possible homecoming that would be a rewind of the one we had barely 6 weeks ago? Okay they'd be carrying an extra two pieces of metal onto the pitch but the events would be the same.
Sod the cheap skates that 'don't want to go' (yea yea), its a unique moment and it calls for a unique "party"

Well worth the £5.50, a fitting celebration to an historic season.
A terrific send off to the retiring trio - not a dry eye in the Arena.

| Well worth the money - I know this event wasn't billed as the 'Homecoming' but was by far the best fan/player event we've seen in recent years.

| Glad you guys enjoyed it. We spent a great afternoon at the Danny Jones memorial match at Halifax. A fun affair that raised at least £25K. Loads of retired stars turned out, including Keith Senior, who arrived at half time and played the final 20 minutes, having just completed the Yorkshire marathon!

I'm genuinely pleased that the event in Halifax went well and raised a significant sum of money. I'd already booked tickets to the event in Leeds when I learned of it, otherwise I would have attended myself. Well done to the organisers and to everyone who contributed.

| better than i thought ,and probably a better way for the retirees .
i like the pigeon detectives but not sure how appropriate they were , just songs to singalong to may have been better.
arena said they gifted the use but was production costs.
that seemed largely player highlights which clubs manage to put together.
showsec prob largest cost
