Superstition dictates that I only enjoy a game if the number of spectators is an even number. I don't know if I enjoyed Wigan v Wire yet because someone came in at half time and it hasn't been decided whether or not he counts.

Depends how big your starting number is.
I'd sat 14,000 and 15,000 are pretty close.
However, 2,000 and 3,000 is a pretty big difference. |

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

It is for Saints. And for most of the season we were second highest average, just nudging behind Wigan. |

Yeah it is. If you say Saints got a 7% lower crowd than Leeds then I think most people would say thats pretty close. Although I would expect Saints crowds to be down this season. |

There was a game on? I was counting heads, the buggers kept moving, thank Christ no-one swaps ends at half-time anymore. |

Its not pretty reading. Still a little too early to be sure but any drop over the season of 10 percent or more is a cause for serious concern. Nowt wrong with posting these figures - if it smooths out closer to last year over a few more games, good, if not, maybe people will wake up to the problems instead of shouting down those that question things as being 'anti-RL'. The people worrying about attendances are worried about the game, and are probably some of the biggest fans out there.

Bull plop they are
They think they are, but they don't actually say anything constructive, or make valid suggestions to cause and correction - they just whine and moan

I'm sure I heard on TV the Bradford announcer said 10,724? Maybe I misheard.

Oh dear, still at it after all these years?
Round 3 attendance figures, 2012
Bradford Bulls 16-54 Wigan Warriors 12909
Hull Kingston Rovers 36-36 St. Helens 7610
Widnes Vikings 18-38 Salford City Reds 5053
Hull FC 22-14 London Broncos 10096
Widnes Vikings 18-38 Salford City Reds 5053
Catalan Dragons 28-20 Castleford Tigers 7488
Huddersfield Giants 22-32 Warrington Wolves 8184
Bradford Bulls 16-54 Wigan Warriors 12909
Leeds Rhinos 44-40 Wakefield Trinity Wildcats 12272
2012 Round 3 average = 9063.78
2013 Round 3 average (prior to Sunday's games) = 9915.4
That can't be right surely, it's almost 10% higher in 2013.
