next home game is against warrington if we beat batley and catalan we will be in a very strong position for the season going into that big match, we need to start selling that match now, i like wigans approach of the big 1,2,3,4 concept where they advertise massively maybe summat we should look to start doing granted i dont expect big crowds against teams like london with the prices that are being charged for them games but at least get some good attedances for the big games, still have leeds warrington saints and catalan to come and should really put them games in the spot light

we would advertise the warrington game on sunday only for it to be changed to fri or sat for sky



send crabtree to stand outside the kingsgate a few days before a game on sunday and give him tickets at £21 to flog, see how many he sells.... not many!!!

can just picture it now, '£21 !! your having a laugh mr crabtree!'

going to catalan £18 bargin 21 or 24 is just to much not just stopping locals from coming to try supper league but also visiting fans both wigan and hull kr normal bring a large following very poor this year better 1500 at 18 or 20 then 250 at 21 or 24

Those games you have highlighted were over Easter and local derby`s, Leeds game this weekend just gone against London only 12000 plus, about 4000 down for them. And Bradford against Wigan would normally get 14000 but they got less than 10000 and Wigan would have taken a good few.
So the games you highlighted were exceptional.

But the point is we never get exceptional gates and Leeds will not mind 12,000 v London I am sure as most games will get far more than that....can we guarentee yesterdays gate will be our lowest for the rest of the season?????

My main point a 1,000 drop in average gate for the big teams is managable for us it is not so whatever the rest of the top 6 or 7 in RL are getting is pretty irrelevant as they are on a much more stable footing in terms of support where we rely on one man who quite rightly is sounding off about our lack of support and even the 10,000 Bradford got v Wigan is unlikely to be seen at our ground for a very long time and that is the real cause for concern.

I went to the Hull match and it cost me 24 quid, I 'm afraid that'll stop me being part of the walk-up crowd again.

I agree. It's not much use asking a rhetorical question about whether or not the town want super league. What is a must is finding out what people do want. What they'd be willing to spend. What would make them likely to attend. Maybe a market research leaflet drop to households in Huddersfield. Whereby those who fill it in and return it get free entry to London or Catalan game.

Was this not the purpose of RHP's survey?

you could of got in for under £8 if you bought a £99 season ticket at the start of the season.

Exactly. Has RHP been demoted to match day announcer?

thats harsh!
some people don't go to every game,maybe only decide on the day or day before to go to a game,so they hardly gonna spend £99 just in case they want to go to a game in future? plus the £99 tickets are cheap because the view and facilities in that stand are poor and would probably put more people off than encourage them.
