Anyone else concerned for the SL record for lowest crowd ever?

Can't beat Fax vs London - 1,276
August 2003.

It won't be lower than this surely?

No, hopefully it will be a good game.

It no doubt will be the lowest crowd in the Super League era however it won't be announced as that. 2229 or there abouts to be announced

I don't know if many on here realise that it is a 6 o'clock kick off yes6 o'clock. On a Friday night in Neath. I expect the crowd to be announced to the team.

And rumour has it Brian Noble asked for the kick off time.

Madness.

There was a sub 1,000 game involving either PSG or Workington IIRC....and the names not Shirley



It will be interesting to hear the thoughts of those that do go. The Cas game of 1500 was apparently a great atmosphere, but many WHO WERE THERE questioned the reported figure saying it was nearer 800



Very odd decision, very odd time, but even more Odd is why Harlequins RL accepted the late change

That's just another of Mike Turner's lies in an attempt to cover his own back. How this man is still involved in RL is beyond me.

Att ~1000. Probably won't be the lowest ever. It's a disgrace that these games are being played in South Wales.

Why are they doing it?

See the man mentioned in headhunters post for a hint at why.

Indeed.

Apart from being essentially another away fixture for the team and a waste of everyone's time, reports suggest the Castleford fixture made a massive loss too. Apparently the esteemed Mr Turner signed a contract at the start of the season because he thought it would lead to a sponsorship, and now the club face being sued if they do not play at least two games in the South. This is the same guy who was responsible for the visa issues and pretty much all the problems last year, and he seems to now be in charge again after being sidelined earlier in the year. So expect this kind of farce on a regular basis.

Was beginning to think there is a WRU infiltrator in the marketing dept up to dirty deeds but an excellent 1 hour radio show with Iestyn Harris, Gareth Thomas and Anthony Seibold tonight. All spoke extremely well to promote the professional, semi pro and amateur game in Wales. More of the same to make the blinkered South Walian media sit up and take notice and we're on to a winner.
