Re: 2011 Season ticket sales : Sat Jan 15, 2011 9:00 am  

when its packed and got 17k on a sunny sunday afternoon I agree it is great, sadly when the weather turns those gates drop, sometime to less than 10k at some of these park grounds. That is no way to run a business and is embarrasing for a supposed top flight sport.

Within 10 years clubs like Tigers will be looking to regular 20K+ crowds, they will never get that at Leichardt or Campbeltown. Take a look at Tigers avg attendance at SFS or ANZ then at either of their other two grounds then tell me it makes sense to play in suburbia. The best supported teams in Sydney are playing out of modern stadia, wakey wakey.

ps when you've been to CP then make comment, hypocrite!

I'd imagine in the next week or so a lot of club's have only just came back from holidays. With the Broncos might take longer due to flooding

Of course. It would be good to see all the clubs sell more memberships than last year. I wish Super League had a chart like this.

Most teams should mickey it in. The only one I worry about is Parramatta their fans are notorious 'bandwagon' (by that I mean supporters only come to watch the team when they're succesful) supporters.

I think by 2013 all teams will hit 10,000 ticketed supporters
