Yes and what are the basic facts ? It was bigger than the usual dozen but hardly massive. The point stands its a bit rich criticising Saints away support which has always been significant at London.

I think making quips with regards to our away following is always a bit ignorant tbh.

Two coachloads plus a number of independents, which is a lot more than "about 40" as you wrote.

That's a separate argument and nothing to do with me.

| Quote: wire-quin " How can you possibly calculate any stats from the day?'"
Oh...I don't know. Maybe if we are on an average of 3,000 at the end of the season it will prove usefull to add the 14.5k for this game, bumping it up to 4k+.......therefore showing that crowds are on the up and everything is rosey at TW2.
I have no issue with clever use of stats to win an arguement, but this is just blatant and will fool nobody. IF Salford get kicked out of SL come licence allocation time and the RFL mention the improved gates at Quins as a reason for keeping us in SL....will you sleep easy?
The official gate at the Huddersfield game in 2006 was 12,301........yeah right

If anyone had a pop about away fans at all they need their heads looking at. Saints are only second behind wigan in the draw of fans stakes......but hey ho.....the club know what they are doing

| Quote: Prince of Denmark "As a season ticket holder this issue doesn't affect me, but that's exactly what most non-ST holders will do; except they won't bother commenting about it on here, their support will just be lost, for this game and possibly further games as a result. It looks like there will be no pay on the day tickets available, even to people willing to pay £25. And as usual the "elite hard core" supporters on here just look down and sneer at anyone who refuses to blindly pay whatever they're asked. As if the club can afford to lose any more support.'"
This is my position exactly, a non ST holder who at the moment prefers to pay on the day. I have made my comments previously within this particular thread and yes POD the impression I have got from the "regular hard core" is just that - If you don't like it don't come.
Having attended at least 75% of all home games over the last 4 seasons I consider myself "hard core" (work or family commitments have prevented me from attending the other 25%). I have also stated previously that my intentions for this season were to purchase a season ticket but the recession dictated otherwise, I am self employed and the recession has hit me hard financially - and yes the £10 "surcharge" being levied is a major factor (it's £10 from the following weeks rent money and I could be working a full week that week or just a few days)
Having been lucky enough to win the best seats in the house competition earlier this month I did enquire about purchasing a Summer season ticket this year (they will be offered again this season) at that game and nearly had my hand bitten off! With the current fiasco surrounding this so called Rugby United fixture I am now seriously reconsidering even doing that!!! If as you say there will be no walk up tickets available for just the RL game (as also stated previously I hate the Union game with a passion) then I for one will not be there and I am now of the attitude that why should I bother even attending the rest of the season if this is how the club decide to treat supporters.
It seems that the club will be happy to carry on regardless, relying on it's elite band of hard core supporters for this and future seasons and not giving a damn about the rest. It also appears that the club and some of the so called hard core supporters have ignored the fact that the game of Rugby League was founded partly because of elitism !!!!!

| Apparently the price will go up if you choose to pay on the day, to £28.

| Just had a thought. Can I exchange my voucher for a Union ticket, give it to someone else, get in on my League season ticket, and they can sit in the inevitably empty stand???
