| Wakey should be well up on last year, sold at least 4k season passes so far, maybe nearer to 4.5k now - a 300% increase on last year!
Guessing average attendance will be somewhere around 8k.

Well the Bulls have been pushing new ideas to turn round the falling crowd numbers they were having. There's been the usual nay sayers about the pledge schemes, but their negative response to the pledge scheme doesn't change the fact that for 2 consecutive years the Bulls have a guaranteed 10k tickets sold for every home game.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

What price per match does it work out at?

Either way good news all round, and with the travel subsidy - the Wakey faithful should become a bigger travelling army to boot.

| Broncos tickets are about the same as Quins last year. Don't expect much change down here unless the team has a good year on pitch.

| Widnes are not far of 4500 stronghold memberships (season tickets) and I think were looking for a 7500 average first year in.
Our away following is very good and we should take good numbers no matter which club we travel to.

Well done Widnes, in fact well done to a lot of clubs, strong demand for Super League in the heartlands

39110_1363272058.jpg Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good

sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league

Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate

the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever

| Should be another good year at Wigan, the marketing team are doing some good stuff as usual.
First game you can bring a friend for free with a season ticket, this is against Hudds. Expecting 18-19k.
Second game against Leeds could reach 17k.
Game against Wire will be around 20k again due to the raised profile of that game.
We will have the 'Big one 4' which will have tv adverts etc. promoting the game, sure to be over 20k
Finally we'll have a game which will involve selling the North stand to local businesses, this has brought in 19k the last 2 years.
Saints game won't be as big as last season though. Sell-out last year but the game this season is the last of the regular season, the crowd will take a huge knock unless we need to win to lift the shield of get in the play-offs (god forbid).
Finally we will have one game linked to the Wigan festival of rugby where the thousands of kids competiting will all get offered tickets, this usually puts quite a few on the gate as well.
Will have sold well over 10,000 season tickets before the start of the season. The figure given on the e-ticketing system (which people have been quoting from) does not include the 700+ hospitality seats in the west stand, they are not shown on the system, there is a huge gap where these seats usually are, along with the boxes etc. adding all of these in will give a number around 10,500+ I reckon.

Wish I could say the same about Salford . Would be great if we could do some of the stuff you listed there, but it boils down to money which isn't in great supply at Salford to say the least.
I've heard 8000 as a target/breakeven number, although what's actually meant by that, I don't know. I think, even with the new stadium, we'll struggle to improve on attendances last season. Might push 8-9k for Wigan/Wire etc, but I reckon it'll be 4-5k on average. Most people in the surrounding areas don't know when/who the first game is. There should have been a big marketing push after last season had finished, but there's been virtually nothing. I think leaflets are going out next week, but the week before the game might be too little too late I think.
