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 - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39110.jpg



This should be down to the clubs in my opinion when it comes to the league. The challenge cup and millenium magic is the oppertunity for these things.

We all get in free for the first round of the CC but it would be great if the kids did for every round, especially for the lower league clubs so they could get some great crowds.

As I said the clubs need to sort out their league attendances, great idea from wire with this true colours ticket concept. Terrific stuff. All clubs including my own should be doing this kind of thing for fans who cannot make every game.

Free Kids schemes for any games, any leagues any competitions should always involve being accompanied by a paying adult. In the past I've seen large numbers of unaccompanied youngsters using the grounds/games as a play-ground causing problems for other spectators and stewards in particular.

It might seem a bit selfish but having paid over £100 for a season ticket for a 6 year old I would not be too happy if free tickets started to be handed out for league games as I have in effect already paid for said games. It would need to include a pro rata reduction in the junior season ticket price so that STH kids still got in for free to that match.

I think it would be better if it was done for the challenge cup 4th round to get more people in to those games who are not season ticket holders.

The wide scale flooding of free tickets into schools to entice simply wont work. People attach little value to a freebie brought home from school - even more so if it is something they are not remotely interested in. Clubs need to get something back from a promo, even if it just contact details of a lead adult to pester them in the future!

That said a structured approach for a free junior with accompanying adult or free juniors on a family season ticket is something worth developing.

Of course they would need to be accompanied by an adult otherwise the club would be just loosing money.

The age range would probable go up to 16 that's what it did in Chsmpionship

Just as an example : Bulls attendance was 15k-ish at the weekend . Wouldn't be quite as impressive if it came out that there were 7500 (or less) paying adults and 7500 (or more) kids on freebies would it ?
Attendance figures are just a rough guide to how a club is doing financially . I have been to a fair few games where you pay cash and walk through a gate . Would be much more accurate if they judged attendance by counting 'paid for' tickets and turnstile clicks .
