Yeah - if the maths work out at that. Not too much to ask that is it? I think they're achieving that, despite today's low turnout.

Not sure they are mate. As a Quins season ticket holder (and someone who travels 40 miles to each home game) I get as frustrated as all the anti expansion mob about the poor crowds. Lets be honest todays attendance was always going to be poor and it amuses me that some people were just waiting for it to be announced so they could get on here !!!!
The challenge for Quins is translating the exceptional growth in junior rugby league in London and the South to bums on seats. I dont have the answer for sure but I guess they will keep plugging away.

| Yeah - just checked - they're just missing it: Ave so far, inc today's is 3,133.
Ah well, it's not the only criteria - plenty of points to be picked up elsewhere.

Is there any reason why you're comparing SL attendances with lower league NRC crowds, which are traditionally poorly attended, and what do you think it proves exactly?

Gave him the crowds for yesterday and your point is?
Was tempted to say that both Barrow and Widnes' games weren't far off Quins attendance and they were playing a competition that isn't famous for bringing in the crowds, but didn't.

He didn't ask for the crowds for yesterday. He asked [i'What crowd did Cas get for the visit of Warrington out of curiosity?.[/i
The implication is that he was comparing other SL teams attendances like for like. Lower league NRC attendances can have no realistic comparison. Therefore I cannot understand why they were included.

So you're upset because I included the main results from yesterday rather than just one?
Can't see the problem whatsoever. Couldn't give a monkey's what you think he was implying. You'll find that the folk who delight in knocking the attendances of clubs like Widnes and Leigh at every gievn opportunity are doing their best to hide their own insecurities and are (thankfully ) in the minority.

Er...no, I'm not upset at all.
I was just asking a perfectly reasonable question as to why you included Championship NRC attendances into a SL attendance discussion. If you were not trying to make some point, either way, I cannot see how they were at all relevant to the discussion. Hence I asked the question.

But surely the potential SL clubs in the lower leagues must have large, loyal supporter bases, especially those that have been embedded in their communities for the best part of a century or even longer? If that's not the case and they're not really any different to Quins RL, a pretty modest hardcore support hoping to boost crowds from casuals who pick and choose their games and away fans from the bigger clubs, I'm struggling to see what extra they bring to the party.

What do you think Harlequins would get playing in the NRC?
I think you’ll also find the hard core support and the tradition, you so despise, is what keeps heartland clubs going in the lower leagues.
This is why we’ll never know the answer to my question.

I never said he shouldn’t do it. I asked why he did include lower league NRC attendances in an argument about SL attendances, and was he making a point by doing it.
I can’t see why that is such a crime?

Disappointing to see more of the fans that turned up for the cup game vs Saints didn't come back this week.

| Be nice if the clubs outside super league got a few million pound to spend eh?
Celtic clowns long may they last...well hopefully until the guy gets fed up and moves onto something else...how come when they wrote up their cv they failed to mention they relied on the money of one fella, which was aimed at leigh and widnes last time
Ah well one rule for one a million rules for the rest

What?
It must have been some creative writing if Leighton Samuels backed the club with his money for 3 years before Super League and they managed to convince the rfl he wasn't the major backer for the application to SL?
