That’s fine, if the club think a 25% drop off is ok and they’ll come flooding back when Leeds are doing well again. Not sure what’s happened at Wigan though.

Leeds v hull 5th Feb. 2020 attendance 19,500 full house due to reduced capacity . seems its still possible to get a good crowd in for a top fixture Wigan who knows maybe ts the style of play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is interesting is that a Televised Thursday night game against Toronto got a higher crowd than an untelevised Friday night game against a reasonably well followed Hull KR.

There is a clear demand for the Toronto product and this has been proven many many times over, both by bums in the seat and TV audiences.....why some refuse to accept this clear fact is really beyond rational belief.

I think thats the point. Irrationality is a perfectly normal and intrinsic part of human nature, but shouldn't be denied its role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
