No we make our loyal fans pay £160 and then send emails out to people who haven't forked out allowing them in for discounted prices. I know people who haven't paid more than £10 this season so far, and sometimes as little as a fiver.

Drop the price to say £80.00 no more freebies and then see what happens.
If the crowds do not increase then, well they might as well give up.

No-one makes you pay anything.
You don't sound particularly loyal either.

| The £85.00 adult season ticket at Huddersfield is for this season , it will be interesting to see if they can afford to do the same for next season.
I think most RL clubs are going to suffer a drop in sales of season tickets next season due to job situation it ai`nt good at the moment and seems to be getting worse from what I`ve expierianced over the last couple of weeks.

Been going for 32 years. If that's not loyal enough for you then I'm not sure of your definition of loyalty. Is it keep blindly paying your money and accept that the team is rubbish and the club is badly run and for god sake never voice your opinion or you'll get jumped on by people who don't like the truth?

Do you think those people getting in on freebies are loyal ?
Christ it is getting to a state on here where you cant say something without someone jumping down your throat.
Discussion and different views, that is what a forum is all about

Quite possibly. The amount you pay to get in doesn't define your loyality to a club.
Quote ="Prestwich Red"Christ it is getting to a state on here where you cant say something without someone jumping down your throat.'"
I never jumped down anyone's throat, simply reminded one person that they weren't [imade [/ito pay anything for a season ticket, and gave my opinion that they didn't sound very loyal.
Quote ="Prestwich Red"Discussion and different views, that is what a forum is all about'"
Indeed it is, I fully agree. So, why is it that when I offer my opinion you choose to quote me and criticise me for expressing my thoguhts?

It's not me that created the definition of the word loyality. However, if I've been drinking in the Church Inn every week for 32 years, then stop going to the pub and decide to slag it off to anyone that listens to me, I wouldn't consider myself to be loyal to the Church Inn anymore.
Quote ="chrismum"for god sake never voice your opinion or you'll get jumped on by people who don't like the truth?'"
Who jumped on you? Who doesn't like the truth?
I pointed out that you weren't [imade [/ito pay anyting for your season ticket - that's the truth. Is it you that doesn't like the truth? Still not sure either of us have been jumped on though, more's the pity.

Doesn't answer my question though, does it?
If you're so upset about "someone jumping down your throat" explain to me why you felt the need to quote me, then criticise me, for expressing my point of view?

| Quote ="GT"That's a bit rich considering the distinct lack of any atmosphere at the Galpharm. And don't even think about mentioning that drum banging nonsense as any real atmosphere, either.
As for the attendance... Small, unsuccessful club with large, successful sporting neighbours in small crowds shocker. We're crap, we're staring down the barrel of no real future and people wonder why we only attract 3,000+ to games? Funny how everyone forgets the shocking attendances other clubs used to get until they got new stadia, improved success on the field, etc. But no, let's continue to pick on pathetic little Salford.
By the way, those saying they can't wait for Widnes to come in instead of us... Have you seen their attendances recently? Terrible. What makes anyone think that the lure of rattling around the bottom of the Super League table will make their attendances better than ours?
Yes, we've got our problems. But they're our problems, not anyone else's. So p*ss off and let us concentrate on them.
</rant>'"
Hey i wasnt having a dig at you lot pal - i was commenting because in the past i have known the Salford lot to be a passionate and noisy bunch and the Shed has deffo been an intimidating place when i've been.
Was just surprised at the lack of it last night as opposed to in the past !
I like Salford - its a good away game i wish you luck !

| Quote ="Karlos13"Yeah I wish we would do something similar. I find it strange though how there was apparently 6100 for Hudds vs Cas in the league with 1000 away fans, yet only 6300 was announced for the cup game with a similar number of home fans but 3000 Cas fans there.
Tax dodge or another over calculated attendance for the league game?
'"
How did you get hold of the turnstile figures for each game? wait a minute , you didn't! Do you work at the Galpharm? The 3000 figure is hilarious. Nearly as inaccurate as your suggestion of a £50 ST. Likewise the suggestion that the Giants include all ST holders for their gates is pure nonsense - though some clubs do it.
Other than that there may be some accuracy in somewhere.

| Might be in the minority here, but based on previous visits, I actually thought there were more there than the announced figure.
Don't think I'll be going to many more games at the Willows this year at £30 to park the car, get in and buy 2 cans of Carlsberg

It looked like a few more but think it was more spread out cos of the nice weather, with less than usual in the shed.

| Crowds, this major issue that RL fans have with numbers, I've said it before and I'll say it again, I think many of you have issues with size, maybe there's a deficiency there somewhere (Freud), so to defend my ailing club (well according to some it’s already dead).
Based on this seasons home fixtures (of which we haven't had many) here is how we stack up over recent history.
Huddersfield
2006 4,084
2007 3,379
2009 3,721
Average over past 3 SL Years 3,728
=redDown 7 Fans.
Warrington
2006 5,016
2007 6,177
2007 5152
2009 6,150
Average over past 3 SL Years 5,624
=greenUp 608 Fans
Wigan
2006 5,494
2007 6,025
2007 6,603
2009 7,046
Average over past 3 SL Years 6,292
Up 754 Fans
Bradford
2006 4,203
2007 3,438
2009 4,383
Average over past 3 SL Years 4,008
=greenUp 375 Fans
Hull FC
2006 4,076
2007 4,077
2009 4,165
Average over past 3 SL Years 4,106
=greenUp 59 Fans
Harlequins RL
2006 3,295
2006 3,046
2007 4,067
2009 3,367
Average over past 3 SL Years 3319
=greenUp 48 Fans
So in all home matches except one (and Celtic for obvious reasons) our crowds are up on average, not massive strides but still..

| Good answer KOTS. I for one get tired of salford getting singled out for criticism on this issue and am getting bored with it every game. I do however think you have too much time on your hands.
