It wasn't intended to be.
I was really putting emphasis on the "home" support levels. In SL if a crowd of 6,000 turn up you kinda expect a large number of those will include away supporters.
Pre season friendlies between Toulouse and Catalans draw in around 4-5000 fans [ home and away fans ] , but the cold keeps a lot of fans at home in France. They tend to come out in the summer when it's warm and RU is not being played.
So the number seemed really good to me. And i think that could grow over the next 4 home games to maybe 3,500- 4,000. If Toulouse make the League 1 home final I'd expect support from all Clubs to come along so, a figure of 7-10,000 is possible. But Stade Ernest-Argelès only has 4000 seats, so a move out to a ground like Stade Michel Bendichou ( Colomiers ) with a capacity of 11,000 might be the go.
If they get that far there will be a lot of interest and publicity via the TV and press, plus RL circles
Anyway, one step at a time.
