Quote: Cowgirl Nostalgist "Saracens would also be happy with crowds of 6,000.

That figure will include the 55,000 who turned up to the London Double Header at Twickenham and the thousands of free tickets they gave away to season ticket holders for the Biarritz Heineken Cup game.'"


Having just found some info on Saracens attendances last year, their highest attendance at Watford was 7,555 and their lowest was 5,799. Everyone involved with London RL would bite your arm off for those figures for the Broncos in 2013.

For the 12 home (at Watford) European cup and league games, their average was 6,667. If the three LV Cup games are factored in that will fall as it is effectively not far off a second team competition. If the three games at Wembley and Twickenham are included the average almost triples to 17,351!

To his credit GF didn't include the massed ranks of McFly fans in his attendance figures.

& given the fact Saffercens have scaled down their ambitions to a 10,000 capacity stadium neither do they.

2010/11 3,124
2011/12 3,020

33 home games over 3 seasons.......about 18k a game average....3,166

The above Sarries attendance stats include double header events as well as a couple of Wembley events....feel free to claim free tickets if you must. The figures in red are.......well.......you know what they are and they too include DOUBLE HEADERS AND FREE TICKETS eusa_wall.gif

Nope.

They built from the bottom up which is why they attract genuinely good crowds all of the time.

Whereas Saffercens rely on OTR games to pad their attendance and look good to sponsors.

Apparently they're even contemplating a game in Belgium. icon_eek.gif

Quote: gutterfax "jd......don't often see you in these parts.'"
Aye, I only go where the best ppl ppl are gf

Would that particular company view Rugby League as a suitible partner for its UK aspirations? I would suggest it would'nt. Evar.

Quote: gutterfax "As for the McFly event.....how anyone can rubbish the achievement and the associated publicity is beyond me....how a supporter of our club can dismiss it, points to insanity.'"

You forget the Rock Choir...all 1,500 of em.

C'mon gf, we've done the 'something special happening at saffacens' before....In 2009, Edward Griffiths stated the Saffacens could no longer "flatline" on an 8,500K average attendance...After 3 yrs and milions of *ponds lost on the Wembley game there new stadium has a 10 k cap...money well spent in your opinion?

*Edit: I meant pounds...ribbit.

Depends on their motives.

& seeing as they're run like a ponzi scheme you can be forgiven for questioning those.

Simply put then, you're happier being a fan of a club with 3k fans in a rented ground that holds close to 5 times that amount, that is 100% reliant on the generosity of 1 bloke to survive, that has no back office staff other than a CEO who has presided over the last 12 months fiasco, and which will in all probability cease to exist as a SL/Professional entity past 2014......
.................rather than being a fan of a club that has a base of 6k to build on, a new ground that will require only 4k more to fill it, that regularly attracts more than a Broncos entire seasons attendance to 1 event game and that's just signed an 8 million pound sponsorship deal?

I get the impression you are just yanking my chain here.....otherwise, it's time to have a word with your carer about upping your meds c020.gif

With your well documented marketing bee in the bonnet I get why you're impressed with Saracens wheezes but do you really not grasp that they're failing upwards?

I did qualify that statement. After all maybe there is an innocent explanation as to why a patently loss making business is dressed up to look like a roaring success.

Let's see....why would they want to look good?
Could it be:
To attract Potential Investors?
To attract sponsors?
To give the impression of success to attract the 3,100 or so fans they will need to fill their new stadium?

or could it be that the guy footing the bill at the moment KNOWS that without the investors, sponsors and extra fans, he and his club really will be buggered........

........switch to clip of the HMS London Broncos RL sailing blissfully towards an iceberg with Captain Hughes and his lightweight crew of misguided supporters gllefully waving and waithing for the HMS RFL to come to their rescue......because for the last 17 years they decided against sorting out any lifeboats.

BTW......do you really reckon that a german company have just thrown money at Sarries based on a McFly concert and a double header at Twickenham?

8,000,000 sponsor and a new stadium = failure d040.gif
