Some great ideas. We, as a family, would be happy to help where we can. Whilst we have followed RL for many years, we have only recently started coming down to watch giants play, following one of my children bringing home a leaflet from school about the 7,s scheme. This certainly worked to get us involved, & we also know of other families who have started supporting in this way. This along with other schemes offered in schools have been very successful in our area. We need to build the atmosphere at games to keep supporters coming back. Our children love Big G, making banners, & our daughter has joined the cheerleading squad. We have been to most away matches so far this year & thought it was a great family atmosphere at Crusaders where they had an area with entertainers, stalls, & a BBQ & merchandise such as flags were given to all children. We think the best way to move forward now is to start a supporters club so we can approach the club in a professional & co-ordinated way. Then we can propose these & other ideas such as getting all our fans sitting in one stand to maximise the noise we make, & scatter the away supporters in the other stands. We just need to arrange a first meeting to get the supporters club going. Have it somewhere where people will want to come (with families). PS. my daughter loves the idea of having a sweet stall.

Maybe you should be directing your suggestions to the Supporters Association?

If you get some leaflets i will happily put them through letter boxes around my area (lindley) we could ask the club for some money to get some made then get them handed out. I am very willing to help with anything. Time for us fans to take this club to the next level.

This IS progressing - albeit slowly.

I also spoke with DG after Wire's training session.

Have you spoken to the guy who's email address I sent you? He would be a useful local contact as someone who has done it himself.
