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!

to be quite honest, he was crap !

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? 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

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!

yes but with the number of kids dancing around, did their parents get free tickets? if so crowd is artifially inflated and we the season ticket holders again lose out

If a rugby team was as well drilled and skilful as they were, they'd beat the Aussiie test team!
They were great. Never seen a crowd at any match watch the entertainment so intently.

Well done Trin marketing team

Very true - apart from when Girls Aloud played at Elland Rd for the Tri-Nations match a few years ago. I've got a great photo of Lockyer standing just watching them move - big perv!

It was a fair question....no need to over-react!

One of the main problems with the george sampson visit was that he was surrounded by kids and press on the pitch so no one else could see. Yesterday worked great for me right down to the diversity lads walking round the pitch sighning stuff before the game started.
