Quote: Chico "Wine drinker. A wino is a wine drinker. One you would associate with the effluent classes. Barolo to Lambrini, Champagne to QC – it's all vino.

‘Middle England’ is like a Chateauneuf du Pape. Values itself highly despite being a mishmash of mediocrity with little substance.

Just call me Jilly.'"

People who twist and make up facts & figures continuously to suit some lame online persona/agenda are the ones with problems.

Thanks for confirming you included RU "event" attendances but "forgot" to include similar RL games too.
Nothing surprising there though eh. How about we exclude those events for obvious and much discussed reasons then re-do your table? You probably already did though and again for obvious reasons you've decided to go another way with twisting your stats....

Here's the top 3 for you just in case..
Leicester
Leeds
Wigan

Now how about those made up Word Cup ticket sales claims? Anything to back them up yet or do we just pretend you never said it?'"

You are never going to get through to Billy, he just wants attention.

Put him on ignore and he will get frustrated and start making jokes about the holocaust again. There was a nice enforced absence after that.

Because no one on here has ever produced SL attendances without the Magic Weekend involved to fit their own agenda, no siree...

The Magic Weekend total attendance was 62,042 in 2013.

62,042 divided by 7 Magic Weekend SL fixtures equates to an average of 8,863 per fixture.

The average SL attendance in 2013 excluding Magic Weekend fixtures was 8,559 per fixture.

The average SL attendance in 2013 including Magic Weekend fixtures was 8,570 per fixture.

The difference between the inclusion of Magic Weekend fixtures in the overall SL attendance average figures and not including Magic Weekend fixtures in the overall SL attendance average figures is 11 per fixture.

Massive agenda right there.

No, really.

Course not. Did you divide the RU events too? No, thought not.

As a side note, there's a nice review here of last years RU double header..

[iThanks to aviva got some tickets. Was a good event but a bit long and other than the Rugby there was not much to do or see so we left early.[/i

Free tickets and he was still bored icon_lol.gif

The problem with some RL fans is that they have a similar attitude to the music fan who likes obscure, 'alternative' bands, and despite claiming how unique and special they are, would like nothing better than to see them accepted into the mainstream by the masses and become as popular as those they despise for their 'blandness' and commerciality.

Personally, as I said before, I don't think RL will ever compete with the Rugby Union's of this world with regard to national popularity, but I don't honestly see why this should bother true fans.... In my eyes, and to the majority on here, RL is by far the most skilful of the two codes, the most entertaining - Unfortunately, people have to accept, however odd it may seem, that the majority in the country prefer RU.

Quote: loiner81 "Free tickets'"

I am often lambasted for freely admitting to using connections to get to as many Broncos games as I could using freebies...they are there for every game, it's just about knowing where to look. Of the 30,112 at the Westpac last year, there were 7,000 "competition winners" care of Vodafone.....I attended 2012 SoO game 1 with Free tickets....State of Origin...the pinnacle of the game, giving away freebies??

As for this comment...
Quote: loiner81 "Did you divide the RU events too?'"

If Billy actually divided up the double header, then the Aviva would be bigger and as for the other 2 "events" they were single games......how would you divide a single game that is part of a regular round of games? d040.gif

Your refusal to accept that Union gets bigger attendances and more fans to games is quite funny actually......you would be far better using the defence that without London and Salford, SL would be better c020.gif
