This post mite get moved but here goes, i like many was appaled with the size of the crowd last nite just over 12k against the 3 times champs why have the other 6k gone, it was more important than the bradford game yet lots of empty seats.

Play-offs never get big crowds first game, fact of life. The 6k are missing out. What a game we saw last night.

I can't believe people are so shocked.

1. Kids ST work out £1 a game, so last nights game cost at least £8
2. People would have saved some dosh for the game in 2 weeks (had we got through last night)
3. 11K home fans paying top dollar isn't all that bad

seems that the club haven't learned jack about why so many fans were missing as they are employing the same ticket prices for Fridays game. I do fear for the attendance this week, HKR will bring a few more than Leeds but I still dont see the crowd getting any bigger than 10K.

My 7 year old didn't come to the game because it was a school night. I'd assume many others would feel the same. I also think a lot of people see a Friday game as a night out on the ale rather than going to the match. Can't do that on a Sunday night.

HKR should bring 3k, i was surprised they annouced the same ticket prices it should have been £10 max

Halving ticket prices has never and will never double crowds. The club will make more money off 12,500 "full price" admissions than 15,000 "half price" admisssions.

Can't agree with you there pal, "The big one 1" V Leeds attracted 20K, a game that usually attracts 13-14K this was purley down to selling tickets for a tenner.

A ground with acres of empty seats make our game look shabby.

Earning the club less than 13-14K paying full price in the process. Full ground or full purse?

Full ground for me pal. The knock on effects from having new fans should far outweigh £5 on the price of a ticket ie. future ticket sales, merchandise sales, making the club more attractive to prospective sponsers

But the big one was marketed heavily for at least two months. You can't really do that in 5 days. All last weeks crowds were down heavily on regular season crowds.

Wigan v Leeds 17,883 to 12,117
Hull FC v Hull KR 20,079 to 17,699
St Helens v Warrington 17,500 to 14,632

Huddersfield v Crusaders did rise from 5,339 to 5,869 but a hefty rise in away fans attributed for that.

We didn't go as it is a school/work night and getting back here at 12-1am isnt workable with work the next day.

I brought my kids, but won't again on a Sunday night. They were hyper, still up at midnight and a pain in the backside this morning.
