Why don't start a post " The Grand Final " then and talk about the game on that?

Who says I paid more attention to the empty seats than the game, they were clearly visible!! I have actually commented on the Grand Final post on the VT too

we stayed to applaud the team after their effort after last weeks game.

It's more like the Staines scuffling off to their antedeluvian caves.

| Alot of Saints fans I know didnt go because they thought they were going to lose.
Poor crowd for a GF, but a helluva lot of positives from the spectical itself.

| To be fair you always get glory hunters that go to finals and if your team lose they are the ones that tend to walk out first. Unfrotunately we are not in a position to call anyone on this subject.

How's that new ground of their's coming on at that rate they would struggle to fill a indoor sports centre let alone a new ground. Big debt, no trophies, ageing squad, low crowds, stadium not built yet. "There may be trouble ahead

| Quote ="Spurry"Poor attendance , you would expect the SLGF to sell out'"
Not really - there's a lot of negativity about rugby league at the moment. The play offs were for the most part were poor as was the whole regular season. The standard is the poorest it's been for a while.
Added to this the boring thought of watching the same 2 teams for the third year and the recession ment a lot of neutrals (who make up a huge number of final crowds no matter who is playing) will have stayed away.
Yesterdays final reminded me of th back end of Wigan Cup winning run - it ws so boring in that you knew the inevitable was always going to occur no matter how well Saints started.
Saints fans are a negative bunch at the best of times but when the new coach is disliked and team looks like it's not going to win they will stay away.

would be nice to get some stats about what tickets were actually sold. Apparently there was a security lock down in manchester on all public transport and many had to attempt to get to the game on foot or in taxis. Could this have played a part in the low crowd
