There's some truth in that. |

Spot on !! I was invited to the Cas game to a free meal, free drinks, free game etc... I chose not to go. At the Wakey game, we spent 80% of our time in the corporatebox cracking jokes and getting pi$$ed... it was more entertaining !.... the product just isnt worth the money.. so how can you invite clients/customers etc?. |

Crowds will be down due to a mixture of austerity and poor results at home this season after a good home season last time. Companies are not spending money on entertaining and sponsorship - even the FA cup is struggling to attract a new sponsor. Tough times all round - still an excellent gate though.

Follow the story to the bottom and it states our attendance was 8063. To be honest I didn't think there was 11k there last night, the East and West stands are only about two thirds full at the most. I suspect the club are counting all the pass holders then adding the walk up figures together to get the 11k but this is giving a false reading. Even chav corner has vanished.

The announced attendance sounded about right to me.
The club only include passholders who turn up, as has been pointed out previously. |

Announced attendance looked about right to me, but surprised to see around only 1200 Cas fans at most, thought it would be nearer 2000.

might be something to do with 25 quid a head to get in. very expensive. never thought id see rugby league fans being priced out of the game.

That's a drop of 1,496 - not good but hardly 'thousands down'.

I would have said about 1200 or so. Stand holds 4000 and was less than 1/3 full |
