Why the hell should I renew my Season ticket/membership?
Quote:graham t
Bris fan here - I'm not trying to wind anyone up but I'm very puzzled as to why Yorkshire would have taken promotion given that quite a few players had already signed for other clubs; your coach was leaving and there is uncertainty about ground availability. This would seem to make you even less well prepared than LW. Even if you had someone prepared to throw huge sums of money at the project (I've heard nothing to suggest there is ), I don't think it would have been viable to create a Prem standard team in time for the new season. Did the RFU put pressure or give some kind or incentive to Yorks so that the final would not be a completely pointless fiasco? I admit I don't see how this could have worked. Maybe one day you will return to the Prem and give representation to an area where it is sadly lacking, but I think that even if you were given the resources it would probably take around 3 years to get there. The best of luck to you if you do.

I note the offie is doing "on this day" news to fill up the pages but there is no real news on how we go forward, or when season tickets will be on sale.
I understand that there are clearly some difficult issues, but surely some sort of recognition of this plus a future date when they hope to have it sorted would help?
Do they think we are thick?
