Think we've had even lower gates for this round before, although probably against non SL opposition. With Thursday in mind is there a statto out there who knows what size crowd we have to beat in order not to have recorded SL's (or our) lowest gate ever?

about 1,200 I believe. Workington Town. We had 1,800 for a game v Hudds in 2001 which I believe is our lowest crowd in the SL era.. with 2112 being the lowest since we returned to the stoop (castleford)

I'm sure one of the statto's will correct me but we played Gateshead on a Sunday lunchtime around 12.00 ko last time out at the Stoop and that was a miserable turnout for SL.

I am sure we had a three figure crowd at the end of 1996! But it could be my mind playing tricks.

Look at some of yesterdays crowds for Coke-Cola Leagues 1 and 2 and we aren't doing to badly:-

Hereford v Brighton 2033

Leyton Orient v Leeds 6943

Barnet v Rotherham 1508

Chesterfield v Lincoln 3419

Darlington v Wycombe 2180

Port Vale v Aldershot 4140


Now i know it is not the Championship or Premiership but with football being the national sport and all the column inches devoteted to boring the pants of the reader you'd think they would do better than this!

I await the rebuttles.

Other sports don't interest me. What does interest me is the Crowd figures at Quins Rugby League. I have no say what so ever in what the club do to address these figures, I simply point out that they are bad and offer possible solutions.
Personally....I would have made every ticket to this game £10 and run a little advert in TNT.

Sounds reasonable to me, maybe chuck in an small Easter egg for the kids......I'm sure Paul Blanchard has a plan to address this but I'll be effed if I know what it is!!

ps thought the O's would have been fairly happy with a midweek gate of nearly 7,000

Probably about 5000 from Leeds

However, Saturdays attendances from the the Same Coca Cola league 212,832

Bournemouth 4 Rochdale 0 Attendance 5,092

Exeter City 2 Dagenham & Redbridge 1 Attendance 5,123

Gillingham 0 Barnet 2 Attendance 6,033

Port Vale 1 Bury 1 Attendance 5,763

Shrewsbury Town 1 Grimsby Town 1 Attendance 5,535


1900 is pitiful, however did get more than Accrington Stanley(1,139) but who are they?

rlHTHrl
I don't care about OTHER teams attendance, nor do I care about other SPORTS attendance.....This is about Harlequins Rugby League attendance...and the fact that we will be looking at a pityful turn-out on Thursday after a pityful turn out last weekend and the pretty much pityfull attendance figures over the last 13+ years........

It's from the milk advert. The appropriate response to which is Exactley. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pieK7b4KLL4 Not reminding me that our crowds are poor. I know I go. now bog off to your marketing threads

If we think of the Huddersfield attendance as bad, wonder how the Catalan figure will compare?

worse......a lot worse

A vast improvement due to the clubs lies for the Catalans match then.
