Well at least your attendance competition is going down to the wire, unlike the real thing .
However, I don’t think a dead rubber, albeit a derby game, will attract the numbers needed to propel Wakefield to the top.
Well done to Leeds though, I wonder if they will get an increase next season if they fail to win the G.F?

I'd expect Leeds home attendances to drop significantly next season if they fail to win the Grand Final. The bandwagoners will jump off faster than they climbed aboard. Leeds can thank Wakey fans for turning up to Headingley in huge numbers in Round 22 for an attendance of 18,387 which was a whopping 49.83% up on the 12,272 attendance for the same fixture in 2012.
The less said about the 9,044 attendance for the play-off fixture last season the better!
