Attendances : Mon Feb 23, 2009 2:09 pm  

Bit disappointed by the number of Rhinos at CP on Fri.

Great attendance at Huddersfield 11,000+.
Only forty quid in takings tho

what was the attendance at our game?

Warrington only had 7,900 which is shocking in my opinion

It may be that with the 'credit crunch' we will see less and less away fans (not that makes much diff to us unless FC are at Craven Park)

4000 Salford v Celtic first game back in SL for them - rank - ... so they are gona get bugga all attendances for Harl, Hudds, and the Frogs.

What was the crowd for the same fixture last year? and how many pass holders do you have?

9,391 last year. It was also on Sky IIRC, so that's no excuse for the drop in attendance. We'd sold over 6,000 passes in November, not heard anything from the club since regarding a total.

No it wasn't, although it was moved to a Friday night to avoid a clash with FC on the Sunday on police advise. There's something that won't be happening again!

Not too bigger drop then, It'll be interesting to see how all clubs attendances hold up this season. Warringtons first home game stands out as very poor even if it was against catalans.

True, they got just over 9,000 for the same fixture last season, although they did dip below 8k on a couple of occasions later in the year.

I think the difference in Leeds (H) last year against this year can almost entirely be attributed to the drop in the Leeds following. This may be a trend throughout the season as finances get tight.
