| After receiving an Email from the Leeds rhinos offering me £5 off for up to 4 tickets for the Catalans game i was wondering if the ticket sales for the home games are on the slippery slope? . If fans stay away from the ground this may jolt Hetherington into some form of action to change our current situation as we all know that cash is king to our Chief Executive. It's starting to feel like there is an air of desperation creeping in to the camp.

| Home attendances have been good SO FAR considering the form but we entered the season on the back of good ST sales from last years success. Will start to drop though and Catalans with no away support is obviously a game you'd try an offer regardless of form.

| Do Leeds report their attendance figures in terms of tickets sold, rather than turnstile clicks?
Certainly Arsenal do, along with a lot of other football clubs. That means season ticket holders are counted in the crowd for every game, whether they turn up or not.

| Never mind the regular season - at least you have season tickets to count. What sort of attendances would we get for Middle 8s? Bradford would presumably be a reasonably big crowd, but Leigh and co? On the back of form the crowds could make some of our 'disappointing' CC attendances look enormous.

I think the crowds in the middle 8's will be fine TBH.Like you say, the Bulls would bring a large following and Leigh and others are likely to as well imo due to the novelty of playing us. If we finish bottom 2 we will only get 3 at home anyway so not too much to worry about.
The biggest concern for GH is sales for next season and how many of the bandwagon crowd swellers he has lost due to this awful season.

Season tickets are valid for middle as well as top 8s.

| Speaking of the Catalan game, why one Earth do they seem to schedule it every year after the 'bring a fried' promotion has ended?
It's almost certainly the match which will have the fewest away fans*, so there should be plenty of room for extra fans.
*insert your own Huddersfield joke here

| Didn't know that about season tickets (or forgot). Was/is the issue for some that you don't know whether you'll be watching Super 8s or Middle 8s as part of the package (plus number of home games could vary)?

| Although I am a season ticket holder, I haven't been to the last three home matches for a variety of genuine reasons. I received a phone call from Headingley last week asking me why I had missed them. This appears to indicate some concern over renewals come the end of the season if they are bothering to phone individual season ticket holders.

| I can't believe you didn't ring them first to get their permission not to attend.

Question: When was the last time Leeds had a sub 10K crowd for a home league fixture?
Answer: 25th July 2003 (SL8-20) V London Broncos 8,231
(incidentally the next home League game was V Bradford Bulls when 23,035 crammed in)
Question: When might be the next?

I think the phone call also indicates you're not the only season ticket holder who hasn't been turning up to games. The club have picked up on what they consider to be a disturbing trend. It doesn't take very long for non-attendance among fans to become a habit.

Question
Given that season tickets are counted in the attendance whether used or not, and that we have 10k season ticket holders, I'd say at some point next season.
