| 4 out of 8 or 9 at Wrexham have had less than 3000. Looking at the pattern interest isn't growing it is falling AND they are doing reasonably well

| Indeed, the better they are doing, the worse the crowds get. "They love their Rugby League in Wales" Maybe it's time for them to get more FREE tickets printed !

Have a look at their username Ste before you start having a go, Ste - think they're pretty valid points, myself. If we were a small town in Wales instead of South Lancs then we might have a chance of Super League, but our face doesn't fit now and it never will; the sooner people get used to that, the sooner we can move on.

mmm. 6pm on a weekday evening, in a town that's never had a pro rugby league team, against a team with a small away following at best, that is over 4 hours journey time away.
And when we played Dewsbury, two century-old clubs playing at the traditional Sunday afternoon ko time, and around an hour's drive apart, how many did we get through the door?

| At the same time when we played (and beat) London Broncos in 2005 we got 3201. I don't get the arguement.

If I remember rightly it was a sunny Sunday afternoon KO for us. If we KO at 6pm Fri I wouldn't have been able to go, and I'd be annoyed too.
We are an established RL town, where in Wales they are growing a fan base. This attendance is cr@p on paper (just to be clear ) but there is obviously more to it than that. That is not defending RFL or Crusaders in any way. It is pointing out the obvious. ie our historic 1st ever SL game against Hudds was 4,047 - that is cr@p ( ) considering what we went through to get there, but of course the ones that went know why it was low. On here you can have excuses for our gates, but the evil ones ie Crusaders/Quins don't have that luxury.

| 4000 wasnt crap.infact it was a good gate for a team whos support wasnt very good the season before.but if you think the game being on tv,in terrible weather conditions and little away support stopped us from getting a 10,000 gate then thats fine by me.

| Hang on if they are growing a fan base in S Wales why move the club to N Wales?
or If trying to grow a fan base in N Wales why move the game to S Wales.
trying to compare a televised game in horrible weather conditions 5 years ago is clutching at straws, especially when the RFL were not paying the wages of certain club members
Cake and eat it comes to mind

I think the point he was making was the terrible weather, same for the Bradford game too.
