Despite shall we say a more controversial and interesting game (and better atmosphere) it was still notable that the crowd is thousands down on last season.



Same fixture last season: 13,352. Tonight (with far more away fans than most teams bring) 11,856.



Concerning times for the club IMO

Not surprised i had to really force myself to go tonight and really wish i had not botherd ! dont like friday nights any more!!!!!!!

Seems we've lost 2,000 fans on average? Very concerning but not suprising at £24 walk up and such a poor run of results.

30k down in profits on that game at least. Plus 15k on crusaders and at least 60k on the Leeds game, turning out to be an expensive season so far for the club.

Aggregate so far this season 45,823 - for corresponding games last season the aggregate was 52,482.



Down 1,665 a game on average.

I'd say 2K down would be about right, against Quins/Crusaders/Salford/Catalan it'd have been sub 10K I reckon, the club can't justify these high prices.



and while I personally prefer Friday nights, it is perhaps time to consider switching to a mixture of game days again. Particularly as corporate sales (one of the main reasons of the Friday switch) have been so poor.

I will put my hand up and say my mrs and me didn`t go tonight,thus making a saving of approx £55 in entrance fees,bridge tickets and petrol.I felt dead guilty about it as I havn`t missed a home game in years, but after the Wakey game I decided to give this one a miss.

dont slag off quins crusaders and catalan they are our future well done rfl did cas bring a few then

I think the corporate sales are down simply because were playing awful rugby and businesses can't give tickets away.

The downturn is the biggest factor in corporate sales, companies can't splash the cash on jollies to the rugby like they used to...but corporate sales were a big factor in the clubs decision and if that factor isn't there anymore then surely having a few sunday games isn't out of the question. Due to our bad form we are hardly picked to be on SKY these days either.

The fans have been brilliant from 2008 to 2010 despite the utter cr4p we've had to watch. The club have been extremely fortunate up to now IMO and it's going to take a massive turnaround in playing terms to tempt those people back

Thank ferk for that,its bad enough we have to endure it,without inflicting it upon the nation.
