It seems like both parties were talking garbage.

And Salford have so far played HKR, Huddersfield, Wakefield, Castleford and Catalan at home. You would expect the average to increase when they play Saints, Wigan, Leigh, Warrington, Leeds and Hull at home later in the season.

Agree with 5 of the last 6, but Leeds have a bad following West of the Pennines.

Spot on. Recent history shows they have no intention to travel to support their team.

That's a personal perspective for you Tommy considering your age, not so much for those of my vintage ☹

Really good by the Leigh fans, even though train strikes are on this weekend.

11,000 at Saints today which i don’t think is that bad at all with it being live on terrestrial tv. The SRD fans were excellent as always.
It was a lovely warm day to have a couple of pints at the game, then nip into the delightful St Helens town centre and rest your aching feet whilst having another pint. 
I wonder if with Salford City playing in the evening that might’ve put some of them travelling to Saints and instead went to watch the footy ?.

877 Leigh plus what appeared to be a family of 4 randomly plonked in and around the home fans.

 

Pre sales were over 900 and plenty got tickets on the day as the club had sold out its allocation

Also not everybody abides by sitting were they are told and will buy tickets with their preferred view.

877 Leigh fans went through the turnstiles so unless a few hundred jumped over the walls that is the official figure from the stadium.

I thought it was quite original, I have never heard or read any reference before about Leigh not having a railway station!

Harry will the two proposed train stations in golborne and Culcheth come under Leigh or be added to Warrington's ever growing list

Golborne is in the conveniently re-drawn Leigh constituency so that’ll tick the box even though it’s going to be next to useless for most of the actual town of Leigh. There again, I’ve got a train to London today in 1 hr 55 mins from Wigan. The only problem being it took 1 hr 10 mins to drive the 6.5 miles from home to Wigan

Good effort, hopefully they'll make a fair few quid on food and drink - I'd be interested to see the overall revenue figures from that game compared to a normal league game, and whether it gets anywhere near normal or even surpasses normal takings (not that I've got any idea in fairness).

As a side note it's great to see a full house for a League 1 game - I sometimes feel like RL between Super League and amateur levels is like the land of the forgotten, which is a real shame IMO as it doesn't really do justice to the entertainment factor.
