How can you blame the world cup when your country (wales) didnt make it.

It may suprise you to know that we have some English people living here in Wales. And that some countries that have failed to qualify for a World Cup actually broadcast the games and people living in those countries actually like to watch them!

2979 is a poor crowd but in wrexham the crusaders are a team in their first year and are slowly but surely getting crowds and when they have been there for a few years and have developed a proper fan base with crowds used to rugby league it will be a lot better for the club

Bradford brought about 250. I think that's more disappointing.

Wasn't blaming anyone, was just showing that a few poor matches can affect any teams attendances. Both teams have had a bad run and that was reflected in a poor attendance from both sets of supporters.

Still got a better average than salford and quins though right?

Not the best attendance, but after such an impressive performance on sky the next few should pick up considerably. Saints and Wire at home are still to come and will both be big gates, hopefully saints dont make the cc final as not many will bother to make the trip to Wrexham the week before if they do.

People love watching a winning team, once the teams hits form and picks up a few wins crowds will improve. I know they are starting from a much higher level but Bradford's home crowds have plumetted the last few seasons to illustrate my point. I think crowds will improve and stabalise at about 3,500 for the rest of this season. It's next year when the hard work needs to be put in to keep the momentum and interest going. The RFL has got to get kids playing the game in the area.

That sort of figure would be nice! I would imagine 4k would be a minimum break even point financially for any SL club.

You obviously don't know about Saints very good away following then do you.

It won't make any difference if Saints are at Wembley a week later,they have a very dedicated set of away fans and i reckon at least 2,000.

Of course it will you tool, there may be some that are very dedicated and will go regardless, but if theres the expensive trip to London the following week not many casual supporters will bother.

Who do you think you are calling me a tool you should look in the mirror mate.

Anyway i will confidently say Saints will take at least 2,000.

No need to be rude.

Wrexham is just around the corner for us, as it is for the Pies and Warrington. It won't make a bit of difference to our finances and therefore our turnout at Wrexham if we are in the CC cup. It is very likely that 2000 is not an unreasonable number to expect from us. This might well increase if it is a sunny day. It might increase even further if we by some miracle start to perform well on a consistent basis!
