And therein lies the reality of the competition. Thanks for that info HL. Did you go to Carcassonne? Hope everyone got back safely - but tired!

I wonder if we just 'threw the gates open', whether we would get 3,000+ on mind?

We threw the gates open at Fax a few seasons ago so we could get the required average attendance for super league entry

It was the RFL's idea - they told us to so they had an application to belittle that wasn't from a super league club - we love to do our bit to take pressure off the bulls!

Someone posted a link on the Sheffield board which included clips of the game and the folk watching.

The commentary was in French and being fluent I was able to realise/understand most of the crowd were in the marquees dotted around the ground.

Yeah I was there. Was a quality weekend (probably made better by the result)

But how they get to that figure is just silly. No one was counting and they've just invented it.

Looks like they took a leaf out of Halifax's book, according to 'freddie's wig'!

Definitely think Toulouse missed a trick, by announcing 300 for their game though.

Well done on making that journey - respect!

Of course, having done that, you've no excuse for not getting to Leigh tomorrow - providing you're back, that is!
