Salford should be degraded that they got a lower attendance than Newcastle, with a sizable Wakefield contingent.

20 thousand free and cheap tickets given out every week would sort the problem out in no time

Genius. In fact, why not ban paid-for tickets altogether, thus guaranteeing every game as a sellout? And saving on ticket office staff and turnstile operators too?

Actually, what about doing just that? Just for one weekend mind you and all tickets must be claimed at least one day prior to kick off with a max of 2 adult tickets per person.

Just as a sport wide event to raise the profile of the game and interest in the sport?

Bit of blue sky out the box thinking there

Thats a good idea you could do a "watch now pay later" scheme, a panel would judge the game for its entertainment and content value then a post game charge could be made for later payment.

How about a honesty box on every turnstile,that way we find out what value people put on the product

11,247 at Hull FC v St Helens with a small away contingent and played on the same afternoon Hull City were playing at Wembley. About a thousand up on last year's fixture.

Not at Headingley thank you very much, not this year...

Bank holiday weekend, nice weather and Cas v Wigan on TV (who needs the M62 on lead up to the bank holiday) will have all dragged the attendances down.

But then we have a sport that has near zero media presence outside of Sky TV, even on Sky it takes some finding. Do I see any real marketing at all? I can't remember the last time I saw any marketing for the game.

2016 treble winners. Should be getting good crowds.

Wakefield string together a few wins and suddenly forget the 2k crowds they were getting 10 months ago?

Got no gripe with Salford BUT

Off the field you surpass Wakefield in pretty much every aspect apart from management e.g Koukash v Carter

New stadium you barely fill week in week out
A decent coaching set up with Tim Sheens at the helm
Playing rosters of top 8 quality (on paper)

And even with our awful season last year this year you have the same if not worse attendance average than us.

This isn't a go at the Salford supporters that turn up, it's stating facts. Like the fact that Wakefield and Castleford have the worst grounds in super league.

It's only you and other Rovers fans saying that, Kevin, for obvious reasons.

We should be getting good attendances, though, given our form of late. I'm sure you'll agree that Hull FC getting back towards attendances of 12/13,000 is good news for the sport.

I've been saying it all along. You are the greatest team the world has ever seen.
Btw pretending you know me? Will you be going the whole hog like easthullfcfan sending me nice little PMs offering me outside?

Salford public are not great RL fans. There's far too many options for spending their spare time in other areas. Premiership football teams, Trafford centre & everything around it, Manchester city centre a few miles away etc etc. A lot of RL teams are in towns that have pretty much nothing else going on, where RL is at the heart of the community. That's not a pop, btw, it's just common sense. You add into the mix, thirty five years of mismanagement and decline and I think it's a wonder we get anyone through the turnstiles.

Slow progress and time will help.
