Success is a great crowd enhancer though. I think any SL club with Leeds' current credentials would draw an extra 5k.

Hello, Mr Kettle it's Mr Pot. You're black.

I think you need to find another club to attempt to troll about. We don't care about Huddersfield, so why do you care about us? It's like Leeds United hating Manchester United, except Manchester United don't give a crap.

I'd put those 5k for Leeds down to them advertising themselves around Leeds more, and the relegation of Leeds United.

I believe we (Bradford) were losing crowds even when we were going through the successful years. That is down to boring rugby and Odsal - Odsal we hope is now getting rebuilt in the coming years.

Oh, I see you've struck a deal with the colleges in Huddersfield by the way with free tickets on demand to students? I may be wrong, but that's what I'm told by people who go to those colleges.

Now, shouldn't you be enjoying your gloating about Friday somewhere else. You'd think you won a grand final or something.

where was i trolling about your club sunshine i was merely stating that it was a coincidence that 2 clubs so close together happen to have 5,000 as a loss or gain duing one of those clubs successful period.

get off your high horse,we dont care about you ,you mean nothing to us - your west yorkshire's 4th team with an awful ground and awful bitter moaning fans - we are not in awe of your club anymore.

and if anything i was having a dig more at glory hunting supporters who may have possibly changed allegiances over a period of time from one past succesful club to a current one - if that is you then yes i was trolling.

your bradford bulls - a once feared dynamo of our game ,now your nothing,just another SL team.wake up and realise people dont care about your club anymore

Your wrong

Happy to have cleared that up for you

your problem with that is that 5k didnt suddenly leave bradford and 5k didnt just appear at headingley

Leeds were getting crowds of 16k when bradford were getting of 13-14k

which means either A) your hypothesis is wrong because they are different people

or B) between these fans hedged their bets between about 2002 and 2005 and attended every game for both sides

some great crowd increases, and if Salford, Saints, Cas and Wakefield get their new grounds and have the 40-50% increases that Hull and Warrington have had...it will look even healthier.

Surely this is not correct? Hull have always had MASSIVE crowds, its only Rovers that have bandwagon jumpers!

It is.
Hull FC grew there crowds year on year upon entry to SL (not far different from our Divsion 1 attendances). Hull KR's all jumped on the bandwagon as soon as they got into SL.

Hope that helps

i wasnt suggesting they did just appear, i was saying it was a coincidence !
