Has been fantastic imo considering how much we've underacheived in both years. I don't think we've had a gate under 10k all season which is an incredible achievement considering how things have panned out. After last season I don't think anyone expected record pass sales and I'm pretty sure we'll top that again next year. Away from home our support has been excellent as always.

It just makes you wonder how many we could average with a successful side that's challenging the top 4? (next year hopefully) Easily 14-15k imo.

All that's happened this year is that all the closet masochists have been able to come out in public without being noticed amongst all of the regular supporters. If FC start doing well the gates will drop off.

10397 is the lowest,

13,230 is the average

Does make you think how good a fan base we have, when teams who are having there best seasons for years cannot attract more than 9500

I was at CP and the south terrace was full so that figure is bollox. As for Wigan, I don't think anyone expected us to travel over there in our droves considering the season we've had and the obvious difficulties of getting over there on a friday night, etc. Barring those two games (and salford) I don't think theres been an away game where we've taken less than 1000 fans, which imo is excellent support, good season or bad.

Though perhaps those teams don't have to give away 5000 tickets. icon_wink.gif icon_lol.gif

Perhaps also these teams haven't had 15-20 years of dominance in the city in the late-80's, 90's, and much of 2000's, thus meaning they have to work much harder to draw more fans in? eusa_think.gif icon_wink.gif

Getting to a final is next. Then a top 6 finish or semi-final appearance. Then I suppose the derby counts as the most important league fixture. Us real fans don't look over our shoulder at our neighbours and do whatever we can to get one over on them. We look at the bigger picture. And this is the reason why Rovers are and will forever be considered a small club. Because their fans and board would rather get one over on Hull FC above anything else. Quite sad, really! :lol:[/quote:1juz9zgo] SPOT ON!

I'd say it's mostly down to the recession (if you look at SL stats, very few clubs' averages will have improved on last year).

Quote: Roofs "Though perhaps those teams don't have to give away 5000 tickets. What has been interesting has been how many more attend home matches now that FC play at the KC. I can only assume that if Rovers were able to bring their facilities up to a similar standard (not straightforward I realise) their gates would probably improve in a similar way.
