Also Gatcliffe has said in the last week that they want more fans to come to the hj so that they can justify increasing the capacity of the stadium. The plans to do so are already in place.

If just 25-30% of the extra 15k who went to Wembley started going to the hj then the club would then have good reason to implement the plans and make the stadium better not to mention having all the extra revenue to buy world class players.

My point is aimed at the people who quite clearly NEVER go to games who went to Wembley.


But wouldn't you rather we had 30'000 people there roaring the boys on to victory than just the 10k who go to the HJ? Haven't we been criticising Hudds for that??

You have missed my point totally.

I am absolutely amazed at the amount of people who took the time out to make the costly journey down to Wembley, whether they be old or new fans - it doesn't matter.

I just want the 'new' fans to come and support the team at the hj or at least come more often than they have been ie, not at all.

I doubt the majority were 'new' fans. You don't have to go to games to be a fan.

A lot of the people of the streets would have been to either Wilderspool or HJ at some point. As Rugbychick stated, personal circumstances can dictate whether you can get to games or not.

I think the main point, is that we get some coming back. Remember we were getting 11k in the first two seasons at the HJ on a regular basis. The cup win may make some fans prioritise other things in their life to make it to the games next season (that doesn't mean not paying the mortgage :D )

I'm pretty sure we will have increased gates next season not just due to the win but the expectation for next year under Smith.

Let the good times roll :-)

I have no problem with them going to Wembley, I just wish they would offer a more regular support.

Not everybody can afford it, some have kids or horses to look after.

With a town that has a population like the one Warrington has its a shame that the Rugby Team only gets crowds of approx 10k.

I wonder what that is as a percentage of the population of Warrington?

Maybe the club needs to do more to promote the game to people who have never had the pleasure before.

Could they not have a deal for season ticket holders that if they introduce a friend to a warrington season ticket then they receive a discount on the price of theirs or something along those lines.

You're special...think you should run the club. But only when you can do some research and work out the percentage...here's some help...attendance divided population times by 100..answers on a postcard please
