He also doesn't frequent this site but like many of his generation is into Facebook and similar sites.
So perhaps any poll on here has to take into account this kind of site like rlfans maybe the preserve of an older generation anyway.
He also plays the game now he has the chance (there was no junior RL in Chester) and will be Aberystwyth Uni's starting no 9 next season so I think I have done a good job replenishing the fan base stock for when I do pop me clogs!

Don't forget that an ageing fan base is better than a reducing one! If you don't believe me ask the management at Saints!

The poll only shows the ages of people coming on this website and not the average age or genders of the majority of supporters.
