Also 8,759 at huddersfield as opposed to the incorrect 7,200. Where are all of these false attendances coming from?

What about 2002

Good to see last years downward trend being reversed eh William?

William eve

This seems like a dis-infomation campaign.

Conspiracy theorist unite.

Is this revenge for the RFL putting out the statement on the opening weekend about RU and RL comparative viewing figures and crowds.

I've never known week after week such massive differences in actual and reported attendances.

The figure for Saints was less than half the true figure. Some one is being a very naughty boy.

still not a great crowd for the hudds v leeds game considering how close the two places are!

Huddersfield crowds are always poor when they don't play on Sundays

They're also poor when they do

Unlike Bradford bills fans who turn up in droves no matter...........lol

It is good news.

Last season's disastrous double digit percentage decrease required immediate action.

Thankfully, the failed franchising experiment will be read it's last rites at the end of this season.

Attendance figures will be very interesting to monitor next season with the new system in place.
