I have to say this is brilliant from the club point of view and I'm so impressed by the effort of you lot and other fans on this. Well done everyone! Agreed Russ but we need to be relentless in Spreading Social Media posts, emailing our MPs to promote the cause and pushing the club for more - next plug channel 4 next Saturday lunch. Nearly 130k up just £400 off 👹👍

I could be mistaken on this bit which is why I left it out of my other post but it looks to me like the website is improving as part of this too.
Part of the problem for SRD and RL is the online profile and to some extent this is due not subscribing and liking things on Youtube.
The number that do is embarassing especially when you look at the number who moan continually about how poor the sport's doing.

You're definitely mistaken. The website is awful by every metric - general performance, search optimisation, and for accessibility. Image optimisation is non-existant. The back end is a joke. The design has numerous flaws. Functionality is poor and broken in parts - like the mobile and footer menus. Mobile responsiveness is also terrible. There's also so much more we can do with it in regard to content and functionality, and building an online profile. We've just passed 130k 👏💪👏💪👏💪👏 fantastic start to the weekend..last weekend was slow before it picked up again on Monday. Hopefully we see some more businesses buy in when the club have their event. And we should definitely take up BimBim's idea of promoting for father's Day.

From my point of view your post is one of those Times crossword moments, You know all the words and what they mean but making sense of it all is another matter.

31 new people have invested today. Great number and after breaking 125k yesterday we've broken 131k now. I must admit, last weekend I was a little worried, then things picked up again on Monday and we've had good daily progress. I'm more confident than ever that we'll make the 250k. I'm really looking forward to what comes after the club's business launch event.

I'm not sure what your point is here.

That's the spirit BDB, we are in the home straight an event will be announced iminently and they are working on getting coverage on channel 4 next week away at Saints and at Home the week after on Viaplay v Hudds in the Cup. Still we need to share all the content we can tweeting Adam Hills, Helen Skelton/ Kyle Amor and Danika this week the channel 4 presenting team.

Fantastic raising this with MPs at 482 investors now not far off 500 investors. Hitting 500 will provide a nice boost for sharing. We may have hit that middle lull. Most fundraising tends to happen in the first and last week. The next 20 days or so could be a grind so we need to keep spreading as much info as we can. It's great that the business event will fall in the middle of it - this should provide a nice boost and some good news to also share. I can't believe we haven't appeared on the BBC yet. Nothing on Sky Sports RL either. I'm disappointed with both of those. You can bet if this was Wigan or Saints it'd be up. I tweeted Adam Hills

No reply from Adam Hill's or any rugby or sports clubs/people I've tried so far. So I've just tweeted Mr Beast... highly unlikely he spots it but you never know!!!
