| Quote: William Eve "Challenge Cup Final attendances in recent years are deliberately inflated by the inclusion of the alleged sale of thousands of empty seats along with the Club Wembley ring of indifference. This has never been more evident than at yesterday's "Empty Seat" CC Final where it was obvious to anyone that Wembley was at least one-third empty.
The sundry knee-jerk reactions and ad hominem responses directed as a result of the provision of genuine comparative attendance stats from semi finals proving that the Challenge Cup is attended by far less people during the SL era surprises me not.'"
Thankfully all pre superleague attendances you use are 100% accurate |

They are indeed to the best of my researched knowledge and I invite anyone to question their validity if they feel disposed to do so. |

Top concept. You call an official attendance that does not fit your agenda made up but recognise figures that do validate your agenda. Do you have a side line in doing stats for north Korea.
If you wanted to be taken seriously you would show stats the show both sides. +ve and -ve. |

Yes there were empty seats yesterday, but to say Wembley was at least a third empty is utter bolllocks. |

There's a 150+ page SL attendance thread which does exactly that. Perhaps your agenda didn't allow you to recognise it as such? |

I assume all the pre-sold tickets are included in the totals, whether sat upon in the actual match or not? I would assume this would include the 'Club Wembley' crowd, who largely didn't turn up, though, to be fair, this is only the same as including season ticket holders who don't turn up which is also standard practice [including in other sports], so whilst it doesn't say how many were actually there, it is technically an accurate summation of how many held valid tickets for the game.
It would be interesting to know how many were there though..

| Quote: Nat (Rugby_Aholic) "78k is an absolute fraud. There were nowhere near that many there. Club Wembley is a great excuse for the apologists on this forum who would prefer to make excuses rather than face the fact that our game is in decline at a quicker rate than ever. Who's idea was it to move the final to August? An even worse decision than franchising!'"
Were you there? |

He's pretty adaptable and has lots of time on his hands. I am looking forward to his stats on CC quarter final attendances soon. Sunday and a stack of Rothman's Year Books. Great way to spend a weekend.  |

Don't be daft. It's easier for him to count red seats by freeze framing the tv.  |

| Quote: Madderzahatter "Going over some of the forums, there are a lot of so-called 'fans' this sport could do without. The number of miserable, glass half empty whingers and doomsayers is embarrassing to the sport. If you don't like it, do one...'"
Unfortunately lots of people that don't like it have indeed 'done one'. I say 'unfortunately', but if you don't care if its just you and that useless clown that runs the RFL watching your definition of the greatest game played as a purely amateur sport, then cheer him on. I reckon it'll take no more than 10 more years to drive away all the people that annoy you so much. |
