Probably. Obviously budget at Leigh is probably double what Newcastle are spending but still must be concerning the low crowds last game.  

Hope they dont lose hope in the project. 

I have seen it too many times in the past that lack of local interest ends in a tearful way, I would give it another year and if there is no improvement in Newcastle's popularity in the North East I think the management just may have a serious look at it.

They got 3k vs Bulls, got some decent crowds.  I think they stay in until they see reorganisation.  I dont think they will want to pull the plug just yet.

I did say end of next season they would take stock.

Not many of ours. We dont have a big away following any more as will be evident on Monday night.   Ill still be there though.  Ill wave for the cameras.

How many would go if there was no magic weekend. Same with scholars on Wembley weekend. Not complaining just saying the reason for inflated crowds

They have had 600-800 for regular fixtures. 1188 when they played Fev.  1835 for the Monday night game against Widnes. They'll have probably 6 clubs below them in the average attendance tables.

I think the Eagles will surprise Fax tonight and pinch a tight one!
