Viewing Figures

[Derwent]

Just been looking at the viewing figures on BARB and the SL figures look to have dropped significantly lately. We used to regularly top the 200k mark, but recent figures are way below that...

W/E 25th July

Friday 132k

Saturday 118k

W/E 18th July

Thursday 151k

Friday 167k

W/E 11th July

Friday 141k

Saturday 104k

W/E 4th July

Saturday 141k

Sunday 129k

The figures aren't particularly bad, it's just that they seem to be much lower than what we used to get.

I find it hard to believe that SL has lost 40% of it's viewing audience, so were the old figures over-inflated or are the new ones under-estimated ?

I raised this a few weeks back after the Wigan v Warrington game, and tbh when compared to this time last year they were very similar. It must be a seasonal thing, I wonder whether plenty of soccer fans cancel during the couple of summer months?

Oh stop being such a drama queen, I only looked at July as I didn't think the August figures would be out yet. It's good that they're better, lets hope they stay that way.
