Nobody on here can should really comment on how good they are IMO. We are not experts in dancing and people who are say they are great. It was a different setting to what they are used to with fans totally surrounding them, unlike a stage where the audience are just in front of you.
Surely the main thing is that is raised the attendance and they got a better reception than Chico, Ray Quin, Matt Willis etc icon_lol.gif

She was until she signed a new contract with them, but soon after they realised that she would take them over their overseas players and now are trying to find a loop hole in the contract, unless I have got this case mixed up with another

Firstly - Thought Diversity were very good and I thoroughly enjoyed their performance. I'm not usually one for all that type of stuff, I'd prefer to watch the rugby (the academy before the game if I could) and possibly young kids at half time. I do appreciate though that times have changed and people want more than just the rugby.

Secondly - If this type of thing could be used to help get the punters in for future games, then you have to take into account the price for such events. Would today have been the huge success it was if the price of tickets was £18 and how many times a season can you give a cheap game away without upsetting season ticket holders?

It was a big success and a big well done to the club though and does show the potential support is out there and should come as a huge boost to know that if we can deliver the new stadium then there's definitely the potential to fill it on a regular basis.

Yes well done to the club, re Season ticket holders , they should be pleased that the club have been able to bring in another 3000 supporters today who have seen the team win and will hopefully come back again/ buy a shirt a programme etc. Its worth doing for the 3 lesser supported teams of Catalan, Celtic & Harlequins It might be different if we had 5000 season ticket holders but sadly we do not and we have to increase revenue to be able to increase salary cap etc.

We all have to hand it to the club for this one. We regular fans have to accept that the game we all love does not have appeal to all. If three times a year we have to use a different tactic to get the wives girlfriends and sisters of the regular fans down to BV then so be it.

We were in front of the main stand and quite clearly Diversity brought in lots of fresh new faces (a little like ladies day against Quins that also worked well I thought). Hopefully some of the newbies might just have liked the experience and come back (it does help that they see a win).

The problem we now have is Belle Vue itself. Its antiquated facilities and very poor viewing positions make it very difficult to see either the game or the half time entertainment. I know some (new found visitors) who have been put off after the George Sampson visit. Roll on new ground!

Ha ..indeed ! They only get the home crowds cos everyone can get tickets for £5 in Huddersfield and they had really cheap season tickets this season. Bulls give loads of free tickets out too.

I agree.

I'm a season ticket holder and only have the best interests of the club in mind. As a season ticket holder it doesn't bother me, it pleases me to see big crowds.

The only problem is though season ticket holders may think twice about purchasing one if they know there will be three 'cheap' games through the season. That will equate to the saving you make by purchasing a season ticket.

That could be a dangerous road to go down.

super league is now a "show" to get the family in..well done today to the wildcat team. personally think that there were too many dancing kids there..wonder what the parents pay to get in? icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif it would be intersting to know how much money was generated. i for one am a season ticket holder as is my son and looks like my daughter will be next year.

i think that the parents get in for free and if so then we must have had around a thousand freeloaders icon_confused.gif icon_confused.gif icon_confused.gif icon_confused.gif

The organisation was spot on today, having Diversity on at half time made it easier for spectators to see them them and enjoy their performance. In the past we have made the mistake of having the entertainers on the field the same time as the teams are warming up . Thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment today..well done Wakey!
