It is impressive and shows the value of signing players who put bums on seats like French/Field



Also to be fair I do think the Fan Park is a good efffort. I know the players walking through the fans has been described by some as a bit "cringy" but its a different way of thinking and an absolutely brilliant experience for the kids.



My only criticism of it last year was if I remember correctly one of the games that the players did it was against Catalans and the game was a dead rubber with a low crowd so I felt it lost some value. However to be fair when that game was selected, it wouldn't be known what situation the team was in, it could just have easily have been a "must win"



Having the players doing that with the special effects before a Saints or Warrington game would really lift the atmosphere.

The fanzone last night was the busiest I've seen it since it's inception. Anything they decide to do later in the season (Good Friday especially) will have to be conducted outdoors to allow a further increase in supporters.



Additional beer stalls will be priority on these days along with food and merchandise stands (the club shop had an extremely long queue all the way into the car park last night).



That being said, it's great to see lots of £££ being spent in the arena which is revenue directly into the club.

Great to hear. Yea hopefully they can make more of the outside part. Get a beer tent out there an act would be sorted. The beers a lot better from the fan zone and it’s a bonus that it all goes to the club

I watched the first half of the Matty Johns show this morning and they played a 4-5 min promotional FOX video for the new season narrated by Matt Nable. Absolutely worlds apart from anything that we have produced, simply stunning. Granted his voice plays a big part but I'm sure we could get in something similar. The guy who narrates the SAS Who Dares Wins series has a very distinctive voice and would sound good over some good footage

Saints just announced a complete home sell out for tonights game. Yes we are Champions and on the back of a WCC but that's still a great effort with all things considered (TV, cost of living etc)



Leeds have only sold 300 tickets so the away end is now open to Saints fans. Don't like that idea personally as it could potentially cause problems but that number of away fans is a poor effort.

It’s a sad day for Rugby League if we can’t mix. We’ll be stood in with Cas fans tonight, it’s the same at Wakey, Leeds etc and there are rarely any issues.



Crowds across the league seem to have really took an upturn. I’m not sure why, because it doesn’t feel like there’s been much more promotion that usual, other than to stick a few young or fading bands/singers on.



Good to see

This is the first season since 2020 that we have had a season ticket (we had one for at least 10 years before the pandemic). We knew that we would miss some games this season but we thought that we could fall back on the system where you can swap tickets for game you miss for ones later in the season to make it worth our while. Together with letting pour kids use them for some games it was a decent saving. We have done ticket swaps in the past, but its not available any more. Minor gripe I know, but it just makes it not cost effective for us to have the season tickets from now on. Just flagging it up if anybody else was thinking of swapping tickets.

Sorry could you clarify this? What do you mean by swapping tickets?

If you couldn't make a game, you could swap your tickets to a different game later in the season. We used to do it regularly. Meant that we could bring friends/family to the game we could make. You can't do it now. No big deal, but it was a factor in us deciding top get season tix from a price per game point of view

So my understanding is that if you cant make it to a game (holiday,illness,cant be d etc) you could give the ticket to anyone later on to get in free but you could also use your ticket aswell,that doesnt make commercial sense as it isnt the clubs fault that you are missing a game but the club gets stung for £28 upwards.

Commercial risk that probably didn't work so is no longer available.



We now have memberships where people can pick and choose.

Your understanding is wrong. You couldn't let someone else use your ticket. It was cancelled for the game you couldn't make and you got extra tickets for a different game. It's no big deal. I just thought you could still do it. The person I spoke to at the ticket office said they stopped it last year. It must have been a real sphere ache to manage so it's understandable that they've stopped it. It just tips the value of getting a season ticket over the edge for us and it will be a membership net season
