Regret that because of Sky changing the QRL date we will certainly not be bring as many fans as we had intended.
With the Euro/£ rate poor etc think a number of others were put off even before the date change.
However, understand that because of 'Gutterfax' lead QRL fan protest Sky will think twice before changing future Perpignan games. However many of our fans are having to fork out anything from £100 to £200 more to even make the game and others who are unable to take even one extra day off plus funging the extra stand to lose at least £150 to £200 per head.
These amounts do not allow for the lost income to your local hotels, shopd, bars and restaurants which could well run into the upper five fig's in Euro's.
Were there a lot of Rhinos fans there on Sat? As a first time visitor I thought there were, but on 9k fans were there, against 12k in last years fixture, and only slightly above your average. Would this be more down to USAP, with the number of Leeds fans going up a bit? I reckoned there were maybe 2k from Leeds, led to a great atmosphere during the weekend.
