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.

I think he means on here, Great game but bad result for us yesterday i thought it was going to extra time. There were quite a few on yesterday did not hear the attendance but did not see many Catalan supporters there. Challenge cup games never bring out a massive attendance. Let to many in in the first half and give us just that bit to much to do.

The low gate can be summed up as live on TV, unattractive opposition and an increasing lack of interest in the CC - the really poor gate this weekend was the 5504 for Widnes - Wigan. Fully expect 8-9000 for the Wigan game a week on Saturday.






Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently.

Poor gate for a cracking game. I thought the fact they were on terrestrial TV for the 'first' time might attract a few more. I doubt Wire would have taken nearly 4k if they hadn't been on TV. Show-offs!

I was there, as I was for every home match so far. The crowd was poor, but a combination of cup match, live TV, few visitors and sunday afternoon did not help. (Wrexham soccer team get less on Subdays than Saturdays). When I went to the shop in the morning to collect my tickets, I had a chat with a guy there, he said that ticket sales had been poor, but told me that they already sold 3,500 tickets for the Wigan match. So with nearly 2 weeks to sell more tickets and with a decent number of visitors, I would expect about 7,000+

The match was a cracker (especially the second half). The Cru's are slowly building up a tidy little squad. With more time playing together they should end up quite a strong side.

he could have mentioned how there were 400 more fans at Barrow v Hunslet than your game, but think he was on about the forum.

There looked to be more there than that the Mold Road stand was about half full and there must have been 700 in the Yale stand.

Barrow has a very good supporter base and has been going in Barrow for a lot longer the Crusaders in Wrexham is that not taken into consideration by you plus Catalan took about 20 if that think Hunslet would have taken at least 80.
