| Remember that we have improved our gates considerably since we left Wilderspool and we're still doing that. The club has also made tremendous progress in increasing our incomes streams from other sources too.

| Quote: Thelonius "I no longer live in the town, so apologies if this already happens, but IMO the club should be promoting itself in schools not only in Warrington but the surrounding areas. Regular visits from Wolfie accompanied by 2 or 3 of the playing staff to talk about the game, fitness, nutrition, and/or help with PE lessons. Kids who've spent an hour or two with some players (and Wolfie) coming home with autographed stuff, savings vouchers for the shop, a fixture list and the desire to pester their parents to go and watch a game. Not only would this entice new fans, but you never know, it could make all the difference in turning the next Steven Gerrard or Wayne Rooney into the next Sam Tomkins or Lee Briers.'"
It does, so apologies accepted.

| Quote: behind the stick "How much does it cost to get £7 in tesco vouchers, is it about £350?'"
They cut the points towards the end of 2011 to 1 point per £1 spent, so I think it would be £700 now. You'd need to be a massive shopper to get anything out of those Clubcards, Tesco would be getting more from the data provided to them.
The four games that are "friend for a fiver" and "friend for a tenner" should be advertised more as people might forget that they have those vouchers.
HJ Stadium Season Average Attendances
2004 - 9,890
2005 - 11,001
2006 - 10,407
2007 - 10,517
2008 - 9,500
2009 - 9,221
2010 - 10,750
2011 - 11,108
2012 - 11,675
If we push for it there is a possibility that we could break 12,000 this year. Some years like 2006 and 2007 were boosted a bit due to playing Saints twice. What we are doing now is having consistency with the attendances, certain matches used to have a steep drop. We've not had a home SL attendance under 10,000 since Cas in 2011, and that was close with 9958.

Don't worry, I'm sure playing Catalans on a Monday night will change that.

Wasnt the Cas attendance upgraded by the club to an official attendance of over 10,000? I remember the Guardian stated that their report used the "official" figure whereas the media at large us an "AP newswire" figure when they went on about the fact that every home game had 10k+ for the 2011 season

Really? Welcome to 1997... Been there, done that, was losing £1K a week. And in Birchwood shopping "mall". And the market. Having merchandise in all three Asda stores in Warrington and being right across from the largest supermarket in the area achieves that doesn't it?

Does anybody actually go in the Cockhedge Centre?

| I thought that the club may have mentioned on the website (not sure if they have) but the "friend for a fiver" offer in the season ticket can be used tomorrow to try and get more in and maybe make it closer to a capacity crowd.

Don't be soft, 90% of the time its an hour and a half max! Sky pay a hell of a lot to cover SL, no chance they would if you restricted them like that. Tell the Wests fans who have a 500 mile journey tonight that Warrington-Leeds is too far!

| It would have helped me if the friend for a fiver vouchers could be used at the turnstile rather than swapping in advance for a ticket.

I am sure it can be easier to do a 500 mile internal flight ,at times , than a quick scutch across the M62 on a Friday night.
I know the fixture was reversed, but last time i went to Leeds it was midnight when i got back to Warrington by coach. By the way, the motorways don't look very good at the minute either.
