Source for Hull KR attendances [i"Sunday’s match against Catalan Dragons was the club’s last on home soil in 2014"[/i

Correct so far... well done Hull KR.

[i"and took the total number of supporters passing through the turnstiles through the 106,000 barrier"[/i

Regular season figure was 102,022 as confirmed by their very own official website. Oh, I see... they want to include the attendance of 4,911 against Warrington in the Challenge Cup? Ok... that takes the total attendance to 106,933 so yes... the number of supporters (if you decide to include the CC fixture) has passed through the 106,000 barrier.

But how many passed through the turnstiles last year? Hmmmm.....

The Wigan away attendance there will have been massively affected by Sky, last year they went to Huddersfield on a Saturday, this year was a Thursday. Thursday games are shocking for away attendances.

Out of interest, how can they acutally work that figure out when both sets of fans were in the same stand and most of the Salford fans I went with paid on the gate?

Edit - and indeed, the year before most I know bought through Hudds to get a £10 ticket offer.

exactly! that is the difference, had it been on a sunday those missing 900+ wouldn't have been missing.
we have had some shocking turnouts on thursdays this year.

as for the salford figures, those are estimated based on ticket sales and walk ups. this year salford sold just over 200 pre sold tickets and the club estimate that another 50 paid on the gate and how many seats they took up ( most of you were sat together in the one area), as for last year, then that is an estimation too, 48 pre sold tickets plus extra's on the day/groupon vouchers. obviously they aren't exact figures, just as with london and catalan, it's just guesswork

by my reckoning there was probably a good 20 or so catalan fans and i saw only 5/6 london fans.
