| Quote: Rob from Erith "Agreed, best atmos since the draw with Cas'"
A big rap to the club on this one. Not just the details of the day as pointed out in this thread, but,as with Cas, the choice of match was spot on. It wasn't great rugby but it was a good game with enough skill, biff and incident to keep the newbie interested. Much better than, as in the past, inviting newbies to watch us being slaughtered by Saints in depressing one-way traffic.
... and the weather wasn't bad either. Does Gus M. know something we don't? |

Welcome Quins Kitties born 02.04.09 -
Purdo - Determined, loveable with a "can-do" attitude. A born leader.
Louie - Big, white and fluffy. A very noisy prop forward.
Harley- Cute and gorgeous (just like our no.9) Well, I couldn't call her Chad, could I?
Update on Quins Mogs :-
Purdo - deffo leader amongst Mogs. The Capo.
Louie - turned out to be more like Louie Spence than LMS. Re-named Judas.
Harley - Cute but not as gorgeous as our no.9.
Oh well, at least I haven't got a Willy.:simpsons/017.jpg |

Gus Mackay deserved MOTM for getting that many people along.
On subject of attendances in general, I see Salford got 3200 (not that surprising, I guess) and the Hudds v Cas game got a miserly 5,200. With the season Hudds are having, you would have thought more fans would have been prepared to travel the 10 miles to Halifax.
Round 16 attendances averaged a mere 6613 (down 2665 on last year and the lowest for this round since 2002).

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

You lose the walk-up though for a game like that. |

Last season one of the Hudds/Wakey matches (can't remember which was the home team, probably Wakey) only pulled just over 5,000. It's a thirty minute train journey between the two towns, roughly equivalent to the stopping train from Twickenham to Waterloo. |

| No, I can see the irony in it Gutters.
However, I am entitled to my opinion that a team that has won 8 of it's 9 home games this season and is 2nd in the league and playing some awesome rugby, deserves to have more people dragging their sorry s to support them (even if it means travelling a whole 9 miles or so to do so.)
Quins fans get loads of stick for not turning up and most of us travel miles to watch a team that produces about 8 home wins every two years.
Sorry if I sound bitter. 
PS Their club's been around for 100 years or so, you know, about the same age as Paddock. |

Never say sorry.......ever. We are London RL....we never take a backwards step!
That said, given our average crowd at the stoop is 3,605 over 73 games since we returned to TW2, I still would steer away from commenting on other teams attendances, regardless of if that team is older than Paddock or not 
BTW.....6,582 is the average at Wakey this year....that's up on last year by nearly 600 a game and I would suspect that will get better as they still have Castleford to come calling.....not bad for a club supposedly dealing with the stench of death according to some.

It's not that anyone else has "low attendances", it's that they often don't seem to get much more for a local derby than when we turn up, therefore a lot of people in the heartlands clearly won't even travel ten miles to see their team. The only "irony" in that is that most of our supporters travel more than ten miles for home games.
