| Your crowds are a disgrace to rugby league.
Do the honourable thing and quit the super league and let Barrow, Widnes or Halifax take your place !

| Quote gutterfax="gutterfax"Hands up on here anyone who couldn't get 10 mates to come to the Salford game if they got a free ticket? Seriously.....1 month until the game...surely getting 10 mates/family/colleagues wouldn't prove to hard would it?
If the 2,330 fans had been given 5 free tickets for Salford then we would be looking at a gate of 13,000.......a full house? Open the entire ground and make everywhere apart from the East unallocated seating......get Every School in the area involved, run a competition for a Box for the season, a decent band and half time entertainment.....really push the boat out and give ourselves a chance of attracting some newbies to come back.
I really don't know what else to suggest other than free tickets as the massive marketing campaign planned and executed by marketing professionals obviously hasn't worked. 2,663 is the average gate for Salford......how much of a shot in the arm would it be to the club, the players and the media if we were to fill the Stoop?'"
I'll hold my hand up. The price of the ticket (inc. freebies) is completely irrelevant to most of the people I know. It's entirely about the time commitment, especially that spent travelling. I'm not sure I would spend nearly 4 hours on trains, etc if I wasn't a committed long term supporter. Even one of my friends who used to attend regularly has been worn down by the time involved (coming from Essex) - the fact that he is a Wigan fan means that he doesn't have that extra incentive to make the effort.

| Exactly right. I was hoping to get on the direct service from Reading (around 55 minutes). Instead I was off at Ascot, bus to Hounslow and then train the Twickers. It was 2 and a half hours each way.
To me, the issue is not with the loyal "travelling" in supporters, it is the need to get 1000-1500 more bums on seats within 10-15 minutes of the Stoop. I have no answer to that. As I said before, when you have the same club (different code) heavily marketing to the same community then it is a tough task!

| Marketing RL in London is a thankless task with obscene competition from union and football - I'm at a university where the majority of students come from the home counties and London, and most of these people don't have a clue about league (the odd few know it as that "northern sport"). It's still a chicken and egg situation for Quins RL as it has been for the various other guises the London club has had. With poor to moderate success levels on the pitch, folk aren't interested in taking up support for a club in a sport that is already alien to them. Without folk being interested, there are fewer gate receipts with which to invest in playing staff/facilities/marketing. And the RFL can only help so much.
We all want a successful London club for the good of the game's national profile. There's mass untapped potential for crowds but it's a difficult process when the match day experience is probably limited by generally low atmosphere as a result of low away support and, fairly often, not much for the home side to cheer about ...
It's a big jump from the "heartlands" to expansion locations and it really wouldn't hurt to have another top level team near to London but that isn't really possible just yet.
The crowd this weekend was very poor for your fierce local derby  I really hope things improve. Don't sack Mac

What sort of crowds would they get? Lets look back and have a think!

| Gutters, a simple "Well done Quins, I got it wrong" would have sufficed.

| I've been down to Quins a couple times in the past couple of years, but as it takes me 2 1/2 hours to get to the ground, I've always avoided getting a season ticket. Though, I have done this season for the first time. The 2,300 people who came at the weekend, is this a weekly thing? I want the club to do well but it seems very poor. I like the idea of giving away free tickets. Need something to boost the crowds. I hope I have not made a mistake in buying my season tickets....
