With the reduced admission prices ( which Widnes I assume agreed to ) and other stuff the club are doing it's about time the folks of this town came to watch the best rugby team we've had for almost a decade, let's hope they continue to turn up.
I saw loads of old fans from the good old days tonight, they cannot fail to be impressed and the crowd played their part tonight I'm convinced.

Well done to the Widnes fans who travelled, superb turnout for a friday night, I reckon around 700-800 ish.

I think people are coming back slowly, we've had 2 games at home vs Widnes with bigger than usual crowds (not including the away support that is) and we've won them both.

The floaters/casuals who come every now and again who came to these 2 games will have gone home thinking things are looking up at Fax and will come back, whereas had we got dicked wouldn't bother again for a while

Didnt Hull KR start to get about the same crowds when they began their resurgence? Hope we can emulate them on & off the field.

Hull KR have a great model to follow, on and off the field, when you look at how far they've come in the past 5 years or so, Its amazing really
