[quote="Gotcha in 2016":12w08s93]McDermott is going. I actually think he is more relaxed because of it, and seems to have let the shackles go. He apparently asked to finish the season, and that is what they agreed.[/quote:12w08s93] :lol: :lol: :lol::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_11388.jpg

Oh am I not? The shame of it.

Is this supposed to be winding me up or something? Haven't you got some RU facts and figures you can bore us with instead? I know no-one's asked but that doesn't usually stop you.

Please FFS can Billy and Gutterfax, take a break from RLfans to let others have a decent conversation?

So what it some fans want to blow smoke up their own s to make themselves feel better.
So what if people want to slag off another sport and compare it to ours whether correct or not.
Most people are aware that what they post isn't always 100% bang on the money with cast iron evidence to back it up but most people who read it also know that and don't argue the toss about it.
No amount of arguing and producing stats will change anything apart from peoples perceptions of you.
So please for everyone's sanity, give it a rest.

But it would never have gone off topic if you hadn't have taken the bait on offer and went into one (like a child btw). FWIW I agree with most of what you post but you regurgitating it isn't going to change anything.

Quote: William Eve "Ok, it does appear that Him and moonie81 have done a runner with their tails between their legs. Perhaps they've finally discovered their embarrassing error? My dearest William, indeed I did quote the wrong figure. However what you deliberately missed off was the comparison to just 5 days worth of English Football. That was the comparison, since the Union Moonies were happily slagging off the far, far bigger code of football.

But if you want a comparison to the AP then here are the stats compiled in your terms (double headers etc attendances spread across the number of games


2013 SL regular round cumulative (incl Magic Weekend) - 1,619,701
2012/13 AP regular round cumulative - 1,506,196

2013 SL cumulative incl playoffs - 1,759,951
2012/13 AP cumulative incl playoffs - 1,618,140

2014 SL regular round cumulative - 1,540,332
2013/14 AP regular round cumulative - 1,554,641

2014 SL cumulative incl playoffs - 1,677,825
2013/14 AP cumulative incl playoffs - 1,644,978


Here are the figures using the what now seems accepted way of compiling attendances and is the way the AP use to compile them (using double header etc attendances for each match):

2013 SL regular round cumulative - 1,774,578
2012/13 AP regular round cumulative - 1,569,298

2013 SL cumulative incl playoffs - 1,914,828
2012/13 AP cumulative incl playoffs - 1,681,242

2014 SL regular round cumulative - 1,716,015
2013/14 AP regular round cumulative - 1,617,278

2014 SL SL cumulative incl playoffs - 1,843,508
2013/14 AP cumulative incl playoffs - 1,721,924


Whichever way you want to compile them, there you go.

Which wasn't the point anyway, feel free to find where I've slagged off or belittled Union for it's attendances. I haven't. I even said on whichever thread it was where media was discussed that I believe domestic Union deserves more recognition.

The point was that when people criticised rugby union ON THE FIELD they were met with a response quoting attendances. Then the main culprit criticised football which, as the stats I quoted for the 2 codes of rugby show, comprehensively craps all over any other sport in terms of attendances.

So which measure of compiling attendances would you prefer? Spreading multi-game attendances across each game (ie the method you used) or giving each game at the event the same, full, attendance (the method the Aviva Premiership uses)?

Alas, it is a simplified world you live in buddy. If the constant references to Union were purely about the slow ponderous nature of the game, then I have no doubt that everyone, even Billy with his 10 minute loo-break experience, would agree.
Unfortunately, the references to Union are usually delivered as a barb towards the game in general and anyone stupid enough to watch it, never mind pay to watch it. There is a train of thought on here, displayed by many posters, that surely the 70,000,000+ who watch the 6 nations, or the 1,000,000+ who attend the 6 Nations, or the millions who attend world cups or the 4 billion viewers curtain.gif are all brain dead sheep because they do so. It is then also claimed that there is an orchestrated campaign in the media to promote the other code to these sheep in the hope of increasing the size of the herd, whilst ensuring that RL is ignored.

I suspect if RLFANS.COM sold it's own branded range of tin-foil hats, they's sell quite well on here!

Thats funny, I've just re-read this thread and no-one criticised football and certainly not me, you shoe-horned it into the debate because you were losing the argument. Anyone who goes back to page 7 onwards can see what you have done. What sort of saddo makes things up what other posters have said and then argues against those points? icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif Maybe as you keep accusing me of criticising football you can provide the evidence that i have to every single member of this forum? Because if you can't, what little credibility you have left will be gone d040.gif
