He'll be busily trying to prove that he enjoyed Samoa-NZ 11% less than a previous occasion.

16,624 average so far after 4 games.....compared to 15,097 after the first 4 games of 2008 so about 10% ahead of the game.

He's been preparing himself to watch the real World Class talent of SBW at Headingley......he even allegedly paid full price to see this. And you know he was right when he said we'll see stuff you don't get in SL......I can't remember seeing someone fail so miserably in the act of scoring a try haha

Bristol will be a low one no doubt but Spotland is sold out for tomorrow night and Derwent Park only has tickets available on the open terrace behind the posts now.

He's busy putting together a statistical dossier which not only proves this is the worst world cup ever, but that it's because of sundry super league supporters and their discounted season tickets.

I'm not actually bothered if Bristol is a low gate, USA-Cook Islands was always going to be the hardest game to sell wherever it was played, and I'd rather see a few thousand new fans enjoying the game in a new City for RL, than just a couple of thousand more seeing it in the heartlands. Also apart from South Yorkshire, I can't think of anywhere in the heartlands that has missed out on a game anyway.

We are doing really well atm I agree.
I did have fears of the 3/4 empty stadiums from past UK based world cups.

Basically the S Stand is divided into six sections for ticket sales and the first four are sold out. The main graphic on the ticket site still links to section 4 which is now sold out hence is showing no availability. When they notice they'll link it to section 5 and you'll be able to buy it again online - or ring them.

The fact that 2/3rds of the tickets have gone in the largest part of a stadium which has only had two pre-sold out games in my lifetime is fairly impressive IMO but there's still plenty of space left in the rest of the ground.

So I just bought two tickets for the two Headingley games

Now the tickets are £15 each for the south stand but the deal thing was £22 for the two games, however with the cheap code and buying individually the total cost has come to £20 (including booking fee)

Really is worth looking for cheap codes

im not criticising those attendances. But the stadiums they are in only hold about 10k, so they will be amongst the lowest ones. I think Fiji playing in Rochdale is what world cups are about just as much as England playing Australia.

31375 is the average after 4 games. an average 22499 attended the 3 events.

Halving the double header just gives a nonsense figure which isn’t representative of anything other than some peoples wish to ignore a good RL crowd.

Of the 4 games played the stated attedances were 45052, 45052, 7481, 14965. Two of the those games were part of a double header. There wasn’t any attendance of 22526.
