The attendance is hugely disappointing, and embarrassing but a reflection of the play-offs overall. I can't say I'm surprised-it's a decent amount of money to pay for a game on TV, when if we lose, well, you'd only have been disappointed, and if we win, olive got another game to pay for next week (though people will face the same issue then too!)

It's like the Sopranos on here today.

Millions, have given it a modicum of consideration.

Anyone catch the attendance at Man United's League Cup game tonight? When the product is overpriced (£45!) footy is as vulnerable as we are.

That wasn't the lowest priced ticket. Reality is that you can get into Old Trafford for £28 for the lowest price seats. Yes you can pay a lot more but ticket prices is not why that game had a relatively poor attendance.

Although based on an incorrect assumption, you're right about vulnerability. On a slight tangent, some bloke said to my old man t'other week "Warrington are dependent on TV money, if TV went away, you wouldn't survive." He's right. It's not just the money we'd miss, it's the exposure that leads to sponsorship which would also drop. We're very vulernable to losing TV income. Then again, so are Manchester United and all football clubs.

Back to crowds - our ground is 80% full most weeks. Of the 11k that go, about 72% of those are ST holders and therefore the cash is "guaranteed". As long as that stays about the same, and the Salary Cap isn't raised too much, and Sky don't do one, we'll be fine. One off drops in play off crowds are largely irrelevant.
