I think Widnes will go up before decision day for that reason. How close was it earlier this season?

3000 aint that impressive in my opinion, it is the grand final afterall

Well only 2850 tickets were allocated to Halifax RLFC. So it goes to show our fans were seeking out extra tickets. As the stadium only holds 12075 people. Of which 8900 were allocated directly to the four main clubs involved. It only leaves less then 3200 tickets left for general sale. As every championship club were awarded tickets. Some of those will have gone. Then any sponsorship tickets awarded by the RFL. The number that you could actually take is limited. So to take more then your allocation is improssive.

I am pretty sure there were more than 3000, more like 4,000 from halifax and to be fair Barrow.
Its harder for the second qualifying club to sell as many imo as you have just a week to do it.

Good support, come on we were hardly ripping up trees on the field the last 6 weeks were we???

More will come if we keep a winning team and with the new stand next season.

Was disapointing with all this in mind that we actually lost.
Theres a few clubs ahead of us in my opinion, not only do we need to win something now, but we need 2500-3000 average attendance and a couple of big home gates i.e. 4-5000 for the Widnes games and challenge cup.
The Club need to work on getting new people into the ground now, cheap season tickets wont be the answer, they need more offers on a weekly basis and should let pensioners and kids in for free when the new stand gets opened. Were gonna have to win something, there could be a number of clubs with boxes ticked, we need to be dominant and have the argument that we deserve to be there on merit, not ticks.
