The drummer from Def Leppard only had one arm so I too am looking forward to the day when we see that 0.8 of a player, maybe get him a contract at Harlequins, if only to comply properly with the statistics.

| Quote GSF="GSF"Poor gate but the RFL won't be too worried.'"
Widnes got 3601 on a cold Thursday evening when the game was also on Sky Sports, and against a French side who probably only brought about 100 spectators.
When Quins and Crusaders manage that figure regularly for home fixtures the RFL will be pleased rather than not worried.

Toulouse brought 100 fans all the way from the south of France for a televised league game on a cold Thursday evening?

I did say probably and I was being very charitable. There was a coach outside for the players and there might have been some who hitched a lift.
I do feel that RL is France has no place in either SL or the Championship, and if the RFL ant to encourage the game over there, the top 4 French Teams should play the top 2 teams in the Championship and the top 2 in championship 1.

It was a very impressive attendence. I suspect they were visiting teams and french wellwishers from the north west but that's irrelevant. I was very impressed. We hardly ever get visiting crowds of any note in this league yet we had a lot there and I was made up.

Maybe they were just people that hate Widnes Vikings and wanted to see you lose?
Oh... there was only 100.

| So if they weren't 'fans' why did they go to the game. I can think of plenty of other things to do on a Thursday evening. A Widnes fan posts that around 100 French fans were at the game which I applauded. He then comes on to say that maybe the figure was exaggerated. Now I'm fully prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt but it is worrying when people start bumping up actual crowd numbers.
