| Quote ="Jaywire"How much impact do the televised games have on attendance? If someone had solid figures you might be able to put a case for some compensation. I've gone through my list again though, and we don't have the most home games, I accidentally included our Magic game. Here's the list to bore everyone with:
Televised Games (inc. Magic games as Away for all)
Warrington = 13 (5 home)
St Helens = 12 (6 home)
Leeds = 12 (5 home)
Wigan = 11 (6 home)
Bradford = 9 (5 home)
Hull FC = 9 (3 home)
Hull KR = 8 (3 home)
Wakefield = 7 (4 home)
I am quite surprised at those figures. I suppose the cc added in a few more games, but I always seemed to be telling my dad ( in 90's) that Wire were on the box again this week.
I just had it in the back of my head that a club got some form of compensation, but looking at those numbers it doesn't seem warranted.
Widnes = 7 (3 home)
Catalans = 7 (2 home)
Huddersfield = 6 (4 home)
Castleford = 6 (1 home)
Salford = 5 (2 home)
London = 4 (2 home)
I'm wondering if I have a Cas game the wrong way around, as shouldn't there be at least 2 home games for each team?'"

Ha ha that's what it will be. Thousands of Warrington fans stayed away because they didn't want to miss out on their wife's / mum's culinary offerings...

When you tea at 4.45, surely you mean late lunch or early dinner, unless of course you actually had earl grey and sandwiches one and three quarter hours late !

| Clubs can actually choose to report either the actual number of spectators who have come through the turnstiles OR report the attendance based on the number of tickets sold. They can also change which method they choose game to game. As an example, we've had a number of games where the attendance was published as 13,024 (Pre extension full house) where there have been empty seats. Maybe we've reported more of the former this season?

Actually you may be right, I've noticed some changes in my behaviour in recent months.
I no longer decide which pub to use based solely on the pint price.
I rarely speak to the guy next to me at the urinal anymore.
I've stopped calling women ' love' and call my boss Guvnor..
I've discovered you don't have to have chips with everything.
There are actually warm days when I doesn't rain.
And now my wrists are getting limp !
Oh no! I'm turning cockney !
That's it I'm moving back, costs a bloody fortune in petrol anyway !

| But yeah, I know I've missed quite a few home games and majority of away games due to not being afford to go. I imagine same with alot of people. Long asaverage attendance keeps going up it's good, especially with alot of times where away fans don't come in high numbers.

| Here are the figures published in a table for all teams in SL.
[url=http://www.loverugbyleague.com/news_10175-wigan-top-average-attendance-table.html2% increase for Wire[/url
Credit where credits due for Wigan top again, although it is down on last year. Notable improvement for Wakefield too at 25% increase and Saints although it is skewed due to their allergic reaction to leaving the town of Sintellins. Salford & Widnes are up but surely should attract more than they do and Leeds as strong as ever despite their poor league form in comparison to recent years.

Some body once said that the geographical path from the south to the north of England can be defined by the thickness of gravy.
Eg. In London it's jus,by the time you get to Newcastle it's that thick you have to spend half an hour heating it up to get it liquid form.

| Quote ="SEB"One further thought - hopefully with so much spare capacity, the club will recognise this is not the time to be increasing prices. A prize freeze and a big push to get another 1000 through the doors regularly is surely the way to go.'"
1000 extra at £18 (prepaid price) = 18,000 x 12 = £216000 (cant get anymore in the Saints game).
£1 extra per ticket x 10,000 = 11,006 x 13 = £143078
Budget to "push to get those 1000 extra everyweek = £72922
Sounds a lot but could they do it. A 300% return (£210k to £70k) on marketing is a BIG return.
