With the signings that we have made, is it likely that our performances will be 11% better (God knows how you would measure that?!)

Does that mean that at £18 we can expect Wigan to be 11% worse than us?

you are talking about 1 game that didnt mean a thing, what is your point there?

Perhaps more importantly, is it likely that our wage bill has increased by 11%??
I think that's a really good idea!'"
An 11% increase on a price that last year was already too high and deterred many fans.

I think you'll find the quality of rugby deterred more than the price.
Mate it just means you only get to have 5 pints instead of 6. It's not that bad

Good point..Oh I'll still have the 12 regardless
For me coming over from Leeds I have to consider the £20 train journey plus the £20 entrance fee. When I moved here it was £12 and £14. And they say we have deflation...
I'll be seeing you all at Leeds, Cas, Bradford and Wakefield as usual

| Mate your not the only one who has to way up the price of watching Salford. We started choosing away games last year based on cost and will do again this season. It kills us not to be able to go and missed Leeds away as a result. Challenge cup games may also have to be missed due to money restraints.
Also the new pay in advance system will be a godsend and save me having to put 4 season tickets on the visa every christmas.

No, but as a Wigan fan you can expect to watch 11% less of each match as they all leave early?!

It may not mean a thing but they were trying to attract the local support, and they just won't come, i remember a couple of years back we were in the Ashley Brook it is 100 yards from the Willows, i had two free tickets and I could not get rid of them, so what i am saying is the majority of people couldn't give a fig for being there, just like to be armchair supporters.

agree with you Bigpev, I think most of us know the only way to get crowds back to where they were many moons ago is to have a winning team competing on all fronts for trophies on a regular basis.
FWIW my opinion on the £20 admission is that it is too much and will discourage people from the game and the £10 junior ticket is totally ridiculous.
