Quote: Fishermanscap "Also a lot of fans from traditional but smaller none SL clubs and amateur teams used to go as a regular event, regardless of who was playing. However, over the years the RFL/SL and the snobbish nature of many posters on forums like this has managed to alienate them.
There is no incentive or people at these clubs to organise trips because to them SL is a different world to which they no longer feel an allegiance too, a bit like the International game.
Get these people incentivised again and you will fill far more seats, maybe not the sell outs we used to get but certainly a lot closer. I'd guess we are talking maybe 5,000 extra fans.'"
I'm not sure that's right, because the Grand Final, which is explicitly Super League focused, often has fans from all the clubs from all the leagues. It's just never recovered from the demolition of the old Empire Stadium, because other concepts grew, such as Magic, and the new Wembley doesn't have the tradition of the old Wembley.
