| It's alright talking about our crowds based on Saturdays attendance but Huddersfield Town had played Leeds Utd earlier in the day, Hull City had been at home so the 5,250 core support from Huddersfield plus the 250 from Hull reflected that plus the Wales v England 5 nations match that was on at the same time more or less and the crazy Sky kick off time. There is a crossover between Town and the Giants and people won't pay for both.
The Wigan match on a Sunday there was 8,200 and the Bradford match again a Sunday we got 7,300 pretty much on par with last year. Not OTT I agree but after last season under Nathan Brown understandable and will rise if we keep consistently winning more than we lose !!

You obviously don't know what you are talking about and know absolutely nothing about the history of either Warrington or Huddersfield.

He's more like the Missing Link with that neanderthal forehead of his....You know those stages of man when you see a demonstration of evolution from the ape to the homo sapien...Danny's the third in line, walking but not quite upright.

If you can't spot him, he will be stood next to Benny Westwood.

I reckon the 3000 ish increase in attendance since your cc win speaks for itself, regardless of the fact i dint know what your attendances were 50 years ago- if our increased by that much perhaps we wouldn't get all the sarcastic crowd comments aimed towards the giants fans- who actually do attend the games.

The increase came with the move to the HJ, where did the 3.000 post CC increase come from? 2009, 2010, or 2012?

Yet more irrelevant discussions about attendance rather than the sport.

| Both the move to the new stadium and the club's success in recent years have been catalysts for average attendance growth.
2000: 6872 (6th)
2001: 6363 (7th)
2002: 6189 (10th) (3 points from relegation)
2003: 7031 (6th)
2004: 9890 (8th) (First season in new stadium)
2005: 11001 (4th)
2006: 10407 (6th)
2007: 10517 (7th)
2008: 9500 (6th)
2009: 9221 (10th) (Challenge Cup win. From tenth. So you could argue we were still pretty poor in 2009!)
2010: 10957 (3rd) (Challenge Cup win.)
2011: 11108 (1st)
2012: 11452 (2nd) (Challenge Cup win.)
2013: 11372 (Only 3 games in. And obviously this average will reduce dramatically after Huddersfield's visit. )

| Published attendance figures that I saw for 2009 say a little over 8400, blame the journalists not me. (And no not wikipedia)Not quite sure why your horse is so high- it's only natural that success would increase attendances.

To be fair to jools - a glance (well, quick copy into Excel!) at this list:
www.rugbyleagueproject.org/seaso ... mmary.html
reveals that our average in 2009 after the Huddersfield game in April was indeed 8,388 - very close to 8,400. Subsequent higher crowds took the full 2009 average to 9,221. Given our average for 2012 was 11,452, then actually that corresponds almost exactly to a 3,000 increase.
I see my original post about attendances has turned into a slanging match between Huddersfield and Warrington fans - definitely not my intention.
Quote ="Hudds_25"Yet more irrelevant discussions about attendance rather than the sport.'"
How is it irrelevant? The strength of the sport on the field depends heavily on the strength of the business off the field, which is heavily influenced by attendances. I was merely wondering why the team at the top of the table could only attract 5,500 fans.

| Quote ="lefty goldblatt"This will answer a few questions
Will Huddersfield keep their good start to the season going, or will a defeat on Friday send them into free-fall, just as one defeat has sent them into the abyss in the last couple of years.
Will we have shaken off our HKR/Stains hangovers? Lets face it, Salford on Friday was little more than a light training session.
What kind of support will Hudds bring over, on Friday?
When the HJ first opened, they used to travel over in reasonable numbers.
However, in the last 4 or 5 years, they could have all come over in a 16 seater mini bus, and Terry Scott's tandem from Carry On Camping.
just one defeat has sent us into free fall??? we lost to bradford a few weeks ago and bounced back with a win at leeds.
once your at the top though the only way is down!
I think we'll win.
There's more to RL than a big bruising pack.'"

This.
Would love to see the completion rates, for both teams; and compare to a fair weather game.
