Outstanding result IMO!
4K+ on a Friday is a cracking gate....and it is great to hear that some of the newbies may well come back. The Yorkshireman I got my tickets for has emailed to say the only thing he didn't enjoy was the flat southern ale and if they had Tetley he'd be a ST holder icon_cool.gif
Seriously, he hadn't been to a RL game since the 70's when he was a regular at headingly and he says reckons that the best audience to target would be (if you can find them) ex-pat northerners like him. He and the wife stayed for a couple of beers afterwards and reckon that the wierdest thing was listening to cockneys talk about RL with passion and Knowledge icon_eek.gif ...he will be back again this year (especially if he can get more free tickets).

I await the customer survey that I believe is vital in these sorts of campaigns.....an email to all those who got freebies. Simply remove the Castleford postcodes first and offer 4 free tickets for Catalans AND the Salford games to all who respond.

Enjoyed the game, looking back now after a few days cool off. At the time I felt we should have won being 24-10 up at one point. Quins are always dangerous with players such as Dorn and Gale running at big tired defenders. On the ticket offer and crowd, seemed it was a good time to do it. Cracking result, exciting game and one which surely must get the excitement of rugby league across to the new guys. Hope it kick starts a rise in attendances.

Quote: just_jillie "If most of the free tickets went to Cas fans then why was the South stand not swathed in yellow and black? The people in there didn't seem to have 'team' colours apart from a few Quins away shirts.....

Hopefully the club will try this again with a Saturday game.



Cas fans with free tickets were able to swap them for tickets in the away stand.

Or maybe just brush it all under the carpet and say nothing.

Probably a good example of the editorial and advertising/promotions desks pursuing different agendas and failing to talk to each other.

He was a freelance who was hoping to sell a short piece to the ES or Metro. It would only have been a couple of sentences with a quote from a newby on how good the game was, but he obviously didn’t manage to convince editorial to run it.

To his credit he did put in an awful lot of effort to brief himself and talk to as many people as possible. Ten minutes after half time he was worried when he saw a number of freebies leaving but in the end he saw that the vast majority who stayed were happy to have come. He was particularly surprised and impressed by the number of passionate and knowledgeable southerners he came across, having believed only northerners had any affinity with the game and he was quite taken with the away crew angle (small group regularly invading northern strongholds.) So even though nothing came of this particular evening it could lead to stories down the track.

An interesting by-product of the ES exercise is that it jogs the memory of oldbies and lets a vast number of people know that RL is alive and kicking in the metropolis. One guy told us he was prompted to put in an appearance again having been reminded by the advert how good was the matchday experience down at the Stoop. That effect might account for a very small number but how many more people were made aware by the advert that RL exists in London? Just getting it into people’s consciousness has got to be worth something.

Congrats to PP on his excellent bit of PR work on the Comeallwithin board.

Probably because the game was rubbish and they fancied going to the pub instead.

Haow many is "loads"?
Seriously......I am slightly worried that after about 1,000 people or so requested freebies that the club has yet to contact them directly and ask them what they thought. An email should have been built "before' the game kicked off and the email sent as soon as the final hooter went.......IMO that is
