They may want all the grounds to look full, for the benefit of the cameras but, their primary concern is subscriptions and advertising revenue, plus having something to show to the armchair viewers.

| Time they had a dedicated lane on the m62 on Friday nights for super leage fans only, that will increase attendance greatly.

Your not wrong! I've given up on Friday away games from Hull, and I know my own club contributes to that by playing on a Friday too.

Your logic doesn't make sense, attendance's are much higher than pre sky TV deal.

One day people will read and understand.
I couldn't care less if attendances are up or down, and that was never stated. READ the first line again and understand what it says.

| I honestly think it's mostly the first one.
I think clubs, in general, are terrible at marketing the games. It's as if they think sticking a sign up a few hundred yards down the road from the ground is marketing.

The clubs seem to put all of their effort in to marketing season tickets then give up for the rest of the season. But the frustrating thing is they can do it when they put their minds to it, the other week Hull did loads of marketing for the derby, groupon deals, social media advertising etc and got the biggest Derby crowd for 5 years despite it being on TV and our team being poor. Yes it's easier to market a Hull Derby than every other home game we gave, but we seldom bother for the rest of the season.
I also hope the top8 clubs give marketing the super8 games a real go, surely it isn't hard to advertise a ticket for 3/4 top of the table clashes with the added carrot of being given priority for CC final (if your clubs still in it) and playoff tickets. If we can't get big crowds in for those games we may as well pack the sport in.

icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg |

| I agree with the opinions on Marketing, even at Leeds one of the most suscessful teams in the league. We rely solely on our core support of 14-16k and our only marketing is a banner outside of the ground and emails to people on their mailing list.
We could be touching 20k most games IMO, if we reached out to sport fans and created a presence in the city outside of headingley.
