That's pushing the definition of professional to its limit.
If i'd said Bramley then yeah that would be pushing it. But it was not long ago that Hunslet were denied a place in super league due to ground capacity. So yeah they are a professional RL club.
16 years ago, so almost a third of their existence.
Since when they've been a part-time club, more recently reliant on the input in terms of players and publicity of the city's only full-time professional RL side.
Next season they'll be running around on glorified park pitches against the likes of Coventry and University of Gloucestershire.
Not happy about the re - released tickets as i had to buy 2 80 quid catagary tickets about 2 weeks ago as they were the only bottom tier tickets near ish the Leeds end left.
I hope it's not the RFL creating some hype by saying tickets are sold out to create a rush only to have thousands of gaps on the day

I'm pretty cheesed off about it too. On the Monday after the semi final win the RFL website had no bottom right tier tickets left so I rang the club to see if they had any. No I was told, they have already sold out. I had to settle for good top tier seats. Now 3 weeks down the line suddenly two different batches of lower tier seats are available. Where the F' have these come from? In a dilemma whether to buy and try and sell my others at a loss... Not good from the RFL...
These will most likely have been returns from community and other clubs who get sent batches to sell in the months leading up to the final. The RFL, quite rightly, distributes tickets through these channels and they will always get some sent back. Fans of the finalists had plenty of choice and time immediately after the semis.
