    Lost Contributors

    To see how many regulars we've lost on this site, go to the last few pages you can access. That will take you back to 2014. I have to say, even more have disappeared than I'd realised.
    A sign of the times in terms of what has happened to BRFC.

    I go back to 2011 and can recall quite a few now not appearing.
    The question in my mind is how much of this is down to the arrival of Venkys completely. And with that, the demise they have bestowed upon us?
    If we had continued to have been moderately successful (and Prem 'fodder'), just how many would still be subscribing. But equally important - attending matches?
    There is a question in my mind at least if it would have been in the upper16/17k.
    I can only speak for myself , but for all the reasons I have banged on about for many years I grew tired of the Prem many yonks ago.
    This simply down to greed.
    When you grow tired of the spectacle inevitably being on a forum becomes less and less of a habit.
    Or could it be ( for a percentage ) simply because they're foreign and Asian owners???

    Rovers were losing support even in the premier league, hence cheapie tickets. If we'd remained there I reckon our average would have come down to 20,000 by now. The top 6 is where the interest is nowadays.

    Streuth - is it really that long? I tell you what - I bet I can be guaranteed, nowadays, to be out by about 50% when I try to estimate how long ago something took place.

    And I see I'm only just reaching 4000, compared to your 26800, Alf! My, but you're a talkative b*gger!

    Yeah Alf, I'm still living and working on the dark side. Castleford to be precise.
