If that many goes I will show my harris on the town Hall steps and will buy your beer all day

Read it wrong, though you meant 9000 - 11000!

Indeed, we're not HKR.

Read what it says, between 9 and 11000. looks like chissitt will be paying for the beer. not to keen on seeing is

no thanks

You have either misread it or you you've started on the pop already

thanks to the increase in gate prices hope it is 6. IF you look at the graph when it was franchise year and tickets were cheaper we got our biggest gates we have had in 20 years now prices are up the last 2 years attendences have decreased. SO what do we do put them up £££££££ again great business I call it stupid!

Hopefully we can improve on last years attendance which was 4807.

Franchise year was 2008, only one season has been played since so how crowds have decreased in the 2 years after only someone earning 40K a year knows.

Not to say the £20 on the day price tag won't be a put off for supporters without a season ticket. Still i think there should be more emphasis in encouraging supporters to buy the cheaper pre match tickets with additional offers.

That's the crux of the matter.

Is there anywhere in town you can buy match tickets these days, because I can't imagine people with just a casual interest heading down Donny Road to pick up a ticket in advance just to save a couple of quid. They'll more than likely not bother at all.

I'm with you on this one. The only people who will make the special trip to the club shop are the same people who would pay £20 to get in on match day. So you end up with the same fans getting in cheaper and the on-the-day price putting off everyone else.

5180 Wakey fans,20 from catalan including players and staff so my prediction is 5200.

bad influence he is

Thats funny, he blames you for his

problems

You are carol vorderman, I claim my £2 x £10 / 4!

It's not so much having a casual interest - I've been a supporter for 45 years and I go to as many games as I can. But, living in the midlands means that a) I can't nip down to the club shop and b) I don't always know that I can make it to a match until that weekend. £20 is a stupid price to ask people to pay and, much as I hate to say it, I think I'll go to more away games than home ones this season.

It all started in Barrow, yes i remember it well

No but we do have TELEPHONES in Yorkshire, ring up pre-book and coolect on match day thats easy enough even for us

They've finally arrived, have they? Congratulations!



Seriously, though, it's about making it easier for people with a casual interest to buy tickets in advance, on a whim, if you like. That involves smart pricing too. Add any extra effort to the process, and a lot of people just won't do it. And they probably won't pay 20 quid on the gate either. Net result, they don't turn up.

Without a doubt, one phone call and bobs yer uncle.

Is that to the phone line for deprived children who have no uncle roberts??

Just over 5.8k.

Pleasing and not far off the amount I predicted.

Over 1000 up on last years Catalans match.

It would be nice if the club could maintain the 20% increase in attendances throughout the season

Surely that can be maintained next week against Leeds, as last year's Friday night game only drew a disappointing 6,425 crowd. Hopefully, the attendance will be nearer to the 9,863 in Round 2, 2008.

Or maybe we are actually telling the truth with the numbers through the turnstiles. there were more fans in on several games last season than announced, especially the Leeds one.
