Just recieved this in an email. The small statements like this have to make you a proud leyther

he says we are the 18th man. Hopefully the crowd carries on growing

All helps in the 'feel good' factor. I don't expect Hunslet to be a particularly bouncing atmosphere but we can give it a go!

Nice bit of pr from the club

PR from the club is getting better and better but I think we all need (no dis-respect to the people who are already doing this) to get in on the act of selling the top class sport that is going on at the LSV. Lets get into the harvester on the retail park to see if we can get a board up out side to advertise the next home game. Once the new Morrisons store goes up the big screen outside the stadium will not be seen from the road so lets get into Morrisons and bang away of them supporting the local (and it goes with out saying) on their door step club

You'll still be able to see the screen, from much of the by-pass - when it's working, that is!

Out of interest, what is our average attendance so far this year ?

2400 (ish?)

has to be 2400 - 2500 easily I would say

Exactly the same as 'Fax's was by the end of last season - although they had to rely on that gate of 21,000 at the last home game with Batley, to get there.

Do the hospitality boxes count in the attendance figures?

Got to say apart from SL bound Widnes ours is the highest in the championship.
We need to get another 1500 to that figure and I reckon we would be wanted by Dicky and Nigel then


Over to the club now to try and acheive it.

Can`t see the Wire on that list.

Since the beginning of the season Leigh have played 9 games not counting our 3 friendlies at the LSV.

Our average for those 9 games is 2134. I don't remember what the 3 friendly gates where.

2502 according to the Championship stats page in the top right hand of this page

Hence my post. I do not think those figures are accurate.

but are you counting the nrc i wouldn't think the championship would

Our league average is 2490 for 4 games.

To bring our average up to 2502 then the three friendlies would have had to average 3608. They didn't.

I know mate, it's getting redone tonight, I was only informed last night.

They are accurate for League games Frank.

Featherstone 1940
Smogs 3198
Barrow 2583
Batley 2285

Total 10006

Average 2501.5

You obviously weren't good at maths were you frank , what was your job again ?

In fact, looking at our figures 1940 was an appauling crowd for the Fev game, if we played them now we'd be hoping for 2800 or more wouldn't we?

It was a thursday TV game , which is why the current recompense for TV games is a joke

Have to admit I should have used my calculator.

well there is no recompense really is there as all the RFL money has to go on jollies

It was aldo before people started realising how good the team is too I suppose. Along with no away fans and it was cold.

Still pretty average though.

What would you do abouy the recompense for TV games Starbug?

You still actually get the 4 grand in cash though Fred , you only lose it if people who would come anyway get their hands on the free tickets , and considering we got a 1940 attendance figure , I'm fairly sure we didn't let more than a hundred or so in on those tickets
