It was a disgraceful attendance. Do not know what rugby fans of Wakefield want. The team are playing as well as can be expected in the face of such adversity, only one defeat.
The club need to market matches alot better than the trailers at either end of the city and the odd poster round town.
It does not take a genius to work out that the attendance would be lower due to tv, one off promotional prices should have been offered to attract more fans.
Warrington fans should hold their heads in shame the amount of fans they brought.
Does the club get money above and beyond the annual money from Sky as football teams do ? I know when they covered the football conference clubs got arond 5k to cover the cost of losing fans who stay at home and watch it on tv.
At the end of the day though if you have sky and are paying anywhere in the region of £30-55 a month by not going last night pays a good portion of that months bill.
