| Well I am delighted Fev are going to bring a lot of fans.
Everyone likes atmosphere at matches especially kids. Three of my grandkids will be there and they will love it especially as they get to see me at HT 
Well done to Fev considering they are only a small village with no hope of progression to the Challenge Cup quarter finals. Great effort from what is after all only a very small club with delusions of grandeur. A week on Sunday will feel like the Final to their supporters.  |

Am sure that will be an easy one for you to reel in when Gingdong sees that Frank.

Have you come into money again Frank, hence the reference to half time.

Dont fall into the trap of believing the small village myth, in reality Rovers pull from 3 towns not just 1 like you lot. Knottingley, Ponte and fev not to mention Ackworth and the surrounding villages. Thats why when there is a big game few can match us. It wont feel like a final it will feel like what it is a 2nd round game at leigh, after all a lot of us have seen us win the final at Wembley and more than once

How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg |

That's 4000+ in the stadium. Wow! Feed that in to the Fev shared gate calculator and it comes out as ~1800. ![]()
You need to do your calculations again its definitely 1400.

Of course, any reasonable person understands that Fev's catchment area is not limited to Fev itself.
However, given the proximity to Cas, Wakefield and even Leeds, I'd have to suggest that Fev are not the only team drawing support from the areas mentioned.
As a comparison, here is a list the population totals for the areas you mentionedTotal
Here are the figures that represent Leigh and the smaller towns and villages bordering the town and strongly associated with LeighTotal
Clearly, there are more places that could be included in either total.
What stands out to me is the % numbers of people in each catchment area that live in the place the team represents. These people are the most likely to have affinity with the club and become loyal, longterm fans. At Leigh, 45% of the catchment area is in the town. For Featherstone, it is 24% of a smaller total.
However, I don't think the town sizes and catchment areas are a particular problem for either club at the moment. It isn't necessary to attract 25,000+ to establish a team as a decent Super League team, given that most RL clubs are poorly run and are underachieving. |
