I would imagine in a Challenge Cup game? Not sure how we do in play offs, attendance wise. Other than that, probably the 1980s!

To go back to the Savelio comments.

I think it was good man management to introduce him to the first team.

He wont be familiar with the first team players, nor they of he. Not to mention the atmosphere, banter etc.

Essentially it would have been like your first day of work , with the added tension of being in the same room as players you grew up idolising from the TV couch or terrace.
That can make a kid very nervous, shy and affect their performance.

Far better to introduce him so he becomes one of the gang and doesn't feel out of place. That way he should perform in a more relaxed state when on the pitch, when the time comes for him to make his debut. I suspect this may be against Salford.

That was only because of a blizzard really.

Quite a few season ticket holders were absent from round about us, we get this when on SKY and Monday night especially . Don`t know why when you already have purchased one. It is probably that they have school aged kids and it`s a late finish.
But we lost a lot of support when we were bouncing along at the bottom of SL for 4 years ending with relegation for a year. During that time we lost a lot of glory supporters to Leeds and Bradford and they take a lot of clawing back. If Saints ever get to that position, you would see the support drop off. The main reason you have held on to your gates this season is the fact that you will have sold a good few season tickets on the back of a good season the year before. If they had not had season tickets, do you think you would have had the same crowds considering your abysmal start to the season.
