Quote: William Eve "Feel free to cite an example this season of a RL journalist (or anyone from the RFL) reporting that SL attendances this season are down by a double-digit percentage.'"


Certain journalists are constantly bleating on about how current SL is unsustainable because 'crowds are down' .

Quote: William Eve "To be fair, Huddersfield aren't flogging cheap tickets on quite the same cheapo scale that Wakefield are this season.

Do you think Wakefield would be averaging 7,948 this season (still marginally down on their average attendance last season) if it weren't for season tickets being priced at less than £10 a game for adults, less than £2 a game for kids and single game offers like today where adults paid £5 and kids got in for free?'"


Wakefield did the same thing last year .. it's a case of bringing fans back that were disillusioned by the previous regime there .

Show me evidence of this constant bleating about SL attendances by RL journalists or the RFL and I'll gladly concede the point.

<Your evidence goes here>

I wish the Wakefield club all the best fortune there is in their quest to maintain decent home attendances, particularly when the club decide that ticket prices have to increase in line with other SL clubs prices.
