LOL....is this the magic potion for bringing another 2 or 3000 to watch Wakey!!!???
Think it goes a bit deeper than just hoping a new stadium is going to fetch them in

What a pile of crap, So the 4,000 who turned up last night despite it being on tv on a Saturday night which is why incidently we play on a Sunday afternoon plus those who could not make it because of prior engagements do not deserve to have a SL team because of the low attendance.
All the clubs bar Salford would have got just over 4,000 as you put it. You put your answers on.... well and tell me how many NL1 clubs get better attendances to put them in your all important attendance league

Oh what a pile of crap

EXCUSES EXCUSES

So 2000 wakey fans had prior arrangements did they, 2000 have pre-booked meals/parties/events they couldnt get out of did they?? 2000 who prefer going to the pub or watching it on home on a saturday night, because it might be cold in the evening.

And i cant have them.

It's certainly not charging £20 a pop. Casual supporters aren't going to buy a season ticket but the club needs them to attend, not only to get the average up but to also increase turnover. I think an extensive campaign in the schools this off season is a must whilst also keeping a presence within the city centre instead of disappearing for the winter. This along with the stadium will be the downfall of this club, but with a new stadium the club will be in a better position in which to attack the low attendances.

I don't get invited out much, why is that



TBH i think you are both correct but just see it a different way.

rubbish fella

I could not make the game last night but even if I could have it would have cost me £72 my wife and daughters add to that the program £3 fuel etc thats a lot of money for under 2 hours entertainment

Fair doos it cost our family £56 + fuel, drinks, food etc and were living off an extremely tight budget but if the city of wakefield cant pull somet out of the bag for only our 3rd playoff game in 10 years and our first home playoff for god knows how long then it shows theres not enough interest.

fair point, and perhaps here is where the problem stems, its ok if your going and paying only for you, to take a family of 4 your looking at 300 quid a month to go home and away, not including petrol etc etc, that almost 3 grand a year.

On that basis, except if you can easily afford it, your going to make financial decisions, and you miss one week it pays for sky for 2 months!!
Devil and deep blue sea really, lower prices, less well paid players, less quality players, less wins, less fans!!
higher prices, less fans, quality players will be released, less wins.

In all honesty the only answer is a review of the whole structure of rl finances, but why would wigan leeds and saints want that?

Anyone think attendances will improve next year? Don't think putting prices up is wise.

But what does it take to get the fans here? Great season all year and they still don't come. It amazes me.

I earn 80K so price is fine for me.

Pathetic attendance, afraid to say there are 2 or 3 national league sides who in the same position would have added a third to the attendance.

Are you NGB4C's boss?
