Some 24 hours before the game I got an email offering discounted tickets in the near empty corners of the ground.
In hindsight the RFL should have been offering these much sooner.
Someone in the marketing department should be a little worried about going into work on Monday morning.

Or as one poster would put it
2012 - 11k + club Wembley empty seats
2013 -12k + club Wembley empty seats
2014 - 12k + club Wembley empty seats
2015 - 9k + club Wembley empty seats
2016 - 13k + club Wembley empty seats
2017 - 22k empty seats
2018 - 39k empty seats

This. Well said. I’d be considering the following grounds for the likely series against Australia in 2020 (England’s next games). Elland Road, City of Manchester Stadium, Old Trafford, Anfield, London Olympic Stadium and Wembley

look forward to those 30000 plus empty seats at these bigger stadia!

I called Ruune a troll because of his comments after the first test match about how it was rubbish and him "thanking god for England v South Africa at Union, which was better".....not because I disagree with him.......because he was trolling!

As for Sir Kevin. He has a track record of slagging off both Wakefield and Leigh in the hope of getting a nibble....given he is a Leeds fans, who has fewer than 4% of his posts on the Leeds boards, it's pretty fair to assume that if it walks like a duck and quacks like one, then it's probably what it walks and talks like.....he started this thread and felt the need to include the attendance at an England B fixture because it was having a pop at leigh.....ask Leigh fans if he's a troll!

I didn't call you a troll, I just pointed out the hypocrisy of slagging off Hull with 25% unsold seats whilst applauding Anfield with 50% unsold.......

5,700 unsold seats at Elland Road. A stadium spitting distance from SL sides Leeds, Castleford, Wakefield and Huddersfield as well as Championship heavyweights Bradford and Halifax....hardly awe inspiring.

76,069 over 3 games, down from 92,660 3 years ago......I'd say that rather than slag off the venues, the people responsible for marketing this vastly reduced gate(18%) should be taken to task. You don't have to agree with my stance and if you don't, it won't make you a troll, just someone happy to lay blame where it isn't deserved.
