| Quote: Mrs Barista "Me too - looked fuller than previous games this season and by a greater margin than announced. Disappointing gate IMO.'"
I questioned the validity of the announced gates on a few occasions last year, as I felt a few games had 'inflated' figures announced. Whether they were just counting season ticket and corporate ticket holders who weren't turning up, or just downright lying I don't know. But I definately think a couple of games last year had <10K in the ground and still 10/11K was announced.
As for last nights crowd I was disapointed. I can understand that some will have been put off by our injury news, and some will be saving for the more attactive games against Rovers, Wigan, Hudds and Leeds to come...but we are playing well, playing a much more exciting brand of rugby, and last nights game was end to end stuff (if a little error prone from both sides at times) and deserved a bigger crowd.

| Friday night every week for me.
Always seems a bit flat on a Sunday afternoon. Under the lights, every game feels like a big game.

The West Stand seemed fuller towards the North stand than usual too, it seems to be the East stand that has lost its appeal.
it feels like they took Chav Corner out, and the fans have never been back since.
on another note, anyone else think it is strange they haven't opened the West Upper for the derby yet? Rovers have sold out the North stand, and you'd have thought we'd have given them the West Upper to sell by now?

| I haven't got too much of a preference. I do like the odd night game to mix it up, but I'm enjoying the change of Sundays in the day this season.
Atmosphere will increase with results, same with attendances.

It took Rovers longer than normal to sell out the North Stand so i dont think that there will be much interest in the West Upper. We still had junior swaps available 4 days after they were made available which is unheard of.

| Think lower attendances this season have little to do with the fact we are now playing on a Sunday and more to do with simple economics and financial constraints. Also I dont think the hysteria caused by some MP's helped over the fuel as some people are worried they'll have no fuel so are staying at home unless a journey is important.
Think if we stay above a 10K average this season we will have done well TBF taking all things into account away from the club. As for the club they can only do what they are doing and continue to improve and hoepfully start to tempt the old season pass fans and walk up fans back that had lost patience under the old regime.
It won't happen overnight and will take time to increase as we had all been promised so much for the last 6-7 years and got let down time and again with nothing but the same old tripe. With this and money for secondary spends being in short supply it will take more than 10 rounds or so to have any affect.
As for Fridays or Sundays I dont mind but would prefer a mix.

If you are not part of the solution then you are more likely part of the problem...: |

I think the same. A mix would be good but I enjoy both for different reasons.
Spot on with the atmosphere as well. Its all about what is happening on the pitch that dictates that.
