Anyone know the regular season avg crowds for each club?

Sorry they include Super 8s as well.

Good effort from Widnes there.

Surprised Cas even managed that. We had a ridiculous number of Thursday night games. something like 7 out of 8 Super 8 matches

Regular season for Tigers is 7098. Up slightly on 2014 but with 2 very decent seasons on the pitch we should be doing a bit better IMO. Widnes and Catalans have done well there.

Regular season - (888's) - total (games)
Cast'frd 7,468 - (5,742)

Wow!

So that's why we didn't have the usual attendances thread at the end of the regular rounds. Crowds were up.

Classic RLFANS.

Hull's attendance figures are misleading. They always include season tickets even if they do not attend the match. An example is the official figure for this months Huddersfield game was announced as 9,300 although Hull's owner Adam Pearson said that there were only 6,400 in the ground. It's been obvious to Hull fans for years that the announced attendance is manufactured. I suspect some other clubs may do the same thing.

when we played at wigan earlier in the 8's i think the crowd was given as over 11,000 but there were clearly nowhere near 11,000 in the ground.

I would be surprised if any club doesn't include non-attending season ticket holders these days.

Everyone does that, from sports clubs to pop concerts and festivals.
If people buy tickets but don't turn up they don't get a refund do they?

They even do at a Wembley Stadium. Members (middle tier) are counted even though hardly any attend unless its England wendyball.

Looks like your Wakefield figures include the incorrect attendance of 9k+ given out for the St Helens game (pretty difficult given the capacity is 7850!). The actual attendance was 4104 making the season average 3626 i think.

Point of order.

William Eve has decided not to bother with posting his figures because other forums decided to publish them (mistakes and all) in their magazine. I posted these attendances because someone asked for them.....but now you've asked:

SL regular season attendances were down.....and the extra 10 games we've had to date have delivered around 75,000 attendees, so the seasons average has fallen even further when compared to 2014. Getting the same fans to attend more games is not a viable or sustainable business strategy....it is papering over the cracks.

I know this is hard for you to comprehend, but what we've had this year is the same fans attending more games, a drop in TV viewing figures and now what looks like a return to the heavy investment in purchased talent to gain promotion at the neglect and expense of club business and player development?

I'll get around to checking them all eventually, but St Helens had fewer fans at their 15 home games in 2015 than they did in 2014 and in the championship, Bradford Bulls were responsible for 33% of that ENTIRE divisions attendances....if they go up this weekend then the Championship averages will be decimated!
