Can someone please ask Mr Hamilton what has happened to the Academy announcement that we were going to hear about within two weeks of the last fans evening.

What was everyone's opinions of tonight and what things did people take away from the evening? Me I didn't really think much was said on the direction of where things are going. Hopefully a halfback and forward signed on for the season and we will do okayish

It was said that they can’t start the Pathway/Accademy until they get permission of the RFL. 
1,115 season tickets sold, down on last year, but better than a lot of.clubs. We’ve had problems with the company issuing the tickets, but they’ve been resolved now, and any one who hasn’t got one, will get there’s in the next 10 days.

Coleman said we are still looking for another 2-3 players, he’s been having talks with some players.

Owens injury not as bad as they thought, be out for 3-4 weeks, Langtree will be fit in 2-3 weeks. Sam Brookes out for 2 weeks with his ankle. Field be fit in a week.

Nothing mentioned of any note.

The Cronton Academy partnership can't be announced yet due to reasons beyond clubs control.

We have had a team photo done, wooooooooo

Lots of praise regarding the one club philosophy thats been implemented, they forget Jimmy Rule done it 10 years ago!

Few questions on new rules and how will we adapt. A question about HFH U9s tackling rules or something 

Some woman clapping at the front like a seal at feeding time, Soaking it all up.

 

The Lydon bit was very good, Had some good tales.

No apology over the shirts then. I was told by the club that the delay for season tickets was that they didn't put Bristol Street logo on the card and had to be re done so someone is telling porkies and I suspect it wasn't the person I spoke to on the phone.

Although I believe an academy is important the cronton partnership is just to tick a box and doubtful we will see any players progress to the first team. Hopefully we will see a couple more players coming in wether on loan or signings

@prisoner Chris Hamilton said it was the firm, I forget their name, who were at fault for the tickets not being done in time, but they said it’s been sorted, and they hope they can now do some more offers on them, like giving some away to children/schools.

I know some people don’t like Hamilton, but I don’t see why he’d lie about this.

@farnworth-viking I was told by the club about the problem so he doesn't want to admit to any cock ups. Let's see if the Bristol Street logo is on my ticket when it arrives.  Is it on your card?

Hopefully 2 or 3 more players. Halfback for Gilmore and a few big forwards would be nice. I would like Wilde and Langtree in the backrow in a few weeks time and guyyed about Reilly out for majority or all the season though. 🥖🥖🇫🇷

Its not on any of the five we have. Treadwell carpets, Baby scan, Cook house, ST beds and another I cant read. Hope that helps 👍 👍

The Bristol Street logo is not on my ticket but I received mine before xmas so wouldnt be on there as the partnership has only been announced recently.  I did use it on Sunday though no issues.

@prisoner It’s not on my season ticket, but as D Day says, they were only announced as continuing their sponsorship about 2 weeks ago, and I got my season ticket sent to me in December, so they wouldn’t have put it on the season ticket.

So if most people got their tickets in December, Bristol street motors not being on the ticket, would not be the reason some people haven’t received them.

Looking at last season’s ticket, I noticed Cronton garden centre and DMR motors aren’t sponsoring us this year, but we’ve got 3 new ones, ST beds, Your Baby scan and Crème de le Crème.

It is because they had to have the re done
