Ah, yes, your awesome 'put a couple of quid away every week' plan. Perhaps people have more to save for than a trip to the rugby? Hull Fair is coming up, and for people who don't have much money, maybe they can only afford to do one or the other? Maybe people were saving for holidays during the season and couldn't afford to save for both? Maybe some people saved some money but then had to spend it on something else. Not everyone has loads of money, and not everything is as simple as you're trying to make out.

Ah, well. Better luck next time.

Your first post said that people had 'no excuse' not to attend. If thinking people need an excuse isn't judging them for not going, I'm not sure what is.

That is absolutely not what I'm doing - quite the reverse. I'm saying that people do not need to justify their decision not to attend a rugby match.
Quote: Airlie Street "What I am questioning is the way fans across the league invest so much time and money watching their teams battle for the play-offs only to not be bothered when they get there, seems bizarre to me.'"
And as I've pointed out several times, there are a whole host of reasons why people might not have gone other than 'not being bothered'.
