Quote: MadDogg "I suspect there were a bunch of tickets given out for the fixture when it was due to be played on a Sunday - maybe they were counted in the attendance figure. The fixture was moved from Friday to Sunday to Thursday which won't have helped.
We hit a real low point in 2019 - I suspected we were starting to recover in 2020 with the new signings and the fanzone (think we got an 11k+ crowd for Hull before lockdown. Covid then came into play and Lams 2021 no doubt put a few off. Pretty obvious we've given out a lot of freebies this year. Hopefully the improved performances, community work and marketing appointment might help to improve ST sales next year.'"
If we can't increase attendences on the back of a trophy winning year, where the rugby has been the most entertaining it has been in a long time, then the club really is on a hiding to nothing. The stay aways are running out of excuses.
Add on to the other stuff the club has massively improved on that you mention and i don't see what more they can do.
