2000 home fans? Our average last year was over 3500 with no away support most of the season, we will increase being in this league for so long with no promotion and no atmosphere through lack of away support has took its toll I have no doubts that we will see the supporters come out of the wood work they didn't all just disappear off the face of the earth when we took the drop I'm sure the majority are still living and breathing

Of course they will never have super league figures whilst in the championship, but you rarely have above 2,000 home fans. To be respected in SL you are going to need attendances of at least 8,000 every week, where are you going to get that many fans from all of a sudden?

And you got these stats from where please?

for a side which wants to be preparing for Super League this time next year, there is a hell of a lot to be done over the next 12 months, both on and off the pitch. I was also in Widnes for when you played Leigh, and for your local derby the attendance was shocking. You need to bring the crowds in as well as players, otherwise you are going to find yourselves the laughing stock of Super League.

How do you propose that we bring in Super League players while on a £300,000 salary cap?

Are we saying wire brought more? You had the smallest stand remember and put both sides of Vikings in there would of been full I reckon. Did think crowd looked more the 4,000 Mark!

A respectable score line against one of the top clubs in the country & the attendence figure considering it's a friendly ain't bad
