Quote: wiganermike "A fair number from the winners of game 1 may leave to find a pub to celebrate in too. There is always going to be the likelihood of 25-50% of the crowd leaving in a SF double header though. The best approach would be to schedule the winner of Hudds/Catalan in the first game, as the game without them featuring in it is likely to have the bigger number of fans attending. This would then make the drop in numbers in the stadium for game 2 likely to be less obvious.'"

i agree

JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover. There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76030.jpg

"I'm sorry, but I would hope that we would beat Cas with a 1 day turnaround." An arrogant Wigan fan a few days before we stuffed them 18-4 at the JJB.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42181.jpg

Did Huddersfield have 4000 fans at tonight’s game? It looked a lot less than that to me.

Dont think Jean could fork out enough to see all three of his teams in action.

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result:



Quote: ThePrinter "As well as 28k sounding fine I'm struggling to find another suitable one in the north. The next smallest are up at 40k and that's too big and I don't think Elland Road would go down well with some if Leeds make it through. Likewise you can't use the likes of the DW and KCom because of Wigan and Hull potential involvement.'"

In 86 we played Leeds in the semi at Elland rd and then had to play the replay there also

Catalan v Leigh/Leeds first up.....followed by Wire/Wigan v St Helens.......sorry FC, but I just don't see you bringing as many as St Helens will to play a local rival.

Catalans vs Leeds would be a block buster as far as crowds go, especially if it was held in Perpignan. The French would flock in their thousands. Catalans vs Leigh would be a disaster, crowd wise, wherever it would be held, because the French look down on lowly Leigh.

No, you do. You are a disgrace to French people.

HUDDERSFIELD - THE BIRTHPLACE OF RUGBY LEAGUE:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_43854.jpg



Quote: Sir Kevin Sinfield "Did Huddersfield have 4000 fans at tonight’s game? It looked a lot less than that to me.'"


no 2100

but a semi final double header would attract more

so yes will be less now with catalans in the semis as they will bring what ? 200-300?

It must feel a bit strange to Frenchmen when a French sports team has an occasional victory, because they have a history of rolling over and surrendering.

When Catalans got to the final in 2007 the attendance was 84,241 only 1 Challenge Cup Final since then has had a higher attendance. I can see nothing to suggest that Huddersfield would take more fans to the semi final than Catalans.
