Good post Michael but can you enlarge on those stats? Are they just league, home averages? Are they all paying fans or were freebies included? It's not an exact science!!!! If you see Peter Phiz give him my best wishes.......

I actually worked out Barrow's average league attendance to be 1396.
Either way, we are still the 4th best supported side outside of Super League !

Here's our home crowds for each match :-
Doncaster 1365
Gateshead 1371
Rochdale 1332
Town 1808
Skolars 1159
Crusaders 1238
Whitehaven 1710
Oldham 1337
S.Wales 1245

It proves the point of derby games and travelling support.
Town and Haven our biggest gates with S.Wales and Skolars are smallest!

I got 1396 aswell. To be honest if we had the championship away support we wouldn't be far off Leigh.

[Michael Ashton]

Thanks for the interest,folks.

The only game we differ is Crusaders,Baaarrow, I got my figures from Rugby Leaguer and for that game I have 1438 which does look too high. I will amend to yours but Raiders Website has 1230. I fr4equently hit the wro8ng key7s when I'm typing. LOL. Now amended to 1396.

These gates are for the 9 home league games only and are official gate figures of bodies at the game given to the press. Income cannot be worked out with any accuracy because season tickets, sponsors, adults,children,senior citizens etc are included.

[Baaarrow]

I wouldn't go off the Raiders website Michael !!!!!!!!!!
It's full of mistakes.
I just took all my figures from the Evening Mail reports which always correspond with the crowd figure announced at the games.

[Michael Ashton]

Do you mean to tell me that the Evening Mail is more accurate than our website. If I compiled the website I'd be very insulted. LOL

[off the wall]

think most of other teams in our league bennifit big style from our travelling away fans. who else sends minimum 2 buses every away game. our fans will be surley missed from this league.

[Flaming balls]

2 buses plus car loads.

I AGREE OUR TRAVELLING FANS WILL BE MISSED FORM THIS LEAGUE { GLAD WERE OUT OF IT THO ] , IS JUST ME OR DOES ANYONE ELSE THINK CC1 WILL STRUGGLE TO FINANCE IT'S SELF AS I BELIEVE GATES WONT BE ENOUGH TO KEEP SOME TEAMS HEADS ABOVE WATER .
