[quote="dally messenger":1gysl9ow]was watching an nfl doco. on one of their teams and they used the term bomb to describe those long high passes from quaterback to running back and i think gibson took that idea, realized you cant throw the ball forward in RL and adapted it to a "bomb" kick we have[/quote:1gysl9ow]

| ...your crowds so far have been a revelation. Leeds was expected to be a bumper crowd, but the gate for Hull was outstanding. Hull FC have never brought 1,500 anywhere except Caravan Park or Wembley, but even if they did, then 5,250 locals through the doors on a freezing cold day.... a major achievement...long may it continue! 25% + up on last years gate for FC....
Next up at home...the Filthy French.....let's hope you get 5k+ and 2 points.

worth remembering last year against hull was our first home game ever in superleague (to which hull travelled in very impressive in numbers and created a great atmos, 2nd only to the saints game in my mind) so i think the game today was even more impressive.
i reckon we will get 8-9k for saints, wigan at least and if we can hit 5k for teams like wazza, cas etc then i reckon its all good. at the moment the opponents will have an inordinate effect on attendances but if we go well we can create a half decent hard core audience. even if we hit 2k season tickets holders next season we will be well set for a few years.
the catalans game will be a very good indicator of where we will end up this year.

[quote="King Street Cat":1wa9s43t]Some might look at this as being harsh but I think it's fair. When are the Rugby League going to stop persisting with this fantasy expansion. If it hasn't worked by now, it never will! I'm all for reaching out to a wider audience with our game but not at the expense of historical clubs in the homelands.[/quote:1wa9s43t]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_6731.jpg |

would of been even better if tthe weather was better but still a good crowd. if the crusaders can carry getting some decent results then against saints, wigan and warrington i think they may be crowds of 8-9k and hopefully 5-6k against kr, cas, wakey ect but will be intresting to see what they get against catalans.

I'd guess at around 5,000. All depends on how much effort the marketing lads and lasses put into it.

We (wire) will probably bring your biggest away following being the closest club. I was actually slightly disappointed for the attendance today, thought it would be better with the talk.
One more thing, why cant you get deals on the day?? I was queueing and multiple families walked away because they wanted the family ticket but you couldnt get it on the day. Must have been 20 people that walked..if they're there, might as well let them in! Silly really

hahahahaha, I'll look forward to playing a game of, spot the Quins fan at the KC on Friday.
As for Crusaders crowd, very impressive and I hope that after a couple of good wins these will stick around and give you something to build on. You can tell that it was a crowd of newcomers though, very little in the way of chants etc, but if they enjoy it and keep coming back they will build up more of an affinity to the club and will start to generate some good atmosphere.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know
