We've been Terrible at home this year, amazed our crowds are up!

I'm not. Yes winning helps but your club make all the right noises about building that base to 10k and I really thought you'd get closer this year....

If they can push for the top 6 next year then I can see them getting close.

Poor old William. he spends countless hours on his calculator, to produce his splendid lists and tables of statistics, he even adds a touch of personality with stuff like "Tragic", and for what? Won't ANY of you look at them? Shame on you. William, your talents are wasted on this stony ground.

You'd know all about stony ground FA. You've spent the last 3 years sowing your own unique brand off bollox in defence of the indefensible. See you in the 2nd tier next year

Get on the blower with magic Super beetle, he'll show you how to do a table.









Funny that the overall upward trend peaked in 2012

The end of cheap tickets in Bradford and Wakefield no doubt probably contributed to that fall after 2012. Bradford's drop contributed on average 246 week on week. I suspect you'd see a more stagnant set of figures if those inflated figures were dropped down to a more natural level of say 8.5k.



Worry is that some big clubs seem to be in a downhill trend.



Hull 13,000 to 11,000 over past 5 years

Wigan 15k to 14k

Wire 10k to 9k
