One crowd below 10000 is not to be sniffed at.

Comparing Bradford and Castleford in the Sunday argument is grasping at straws. Castleford in a very good year have seen attendances rocket (up 10% ish I believe) Bradford on the other hand has seen yet more decline on the back of relegation. The figures we posted are pretty much in line with those teams as a whole - which would lend weight to it in fact not mattering whether it's a Friday or a Sunday.

I always think Catalans is a good bench mark for how attendances are doing, and we've shown a minor, but positive improvement.

I'm not sure it's clutching at straws at all, Bradford's crowds even now are at least on par with Cas,, and their away support has always been bigger. It's also worth noting that 12,000 Saints fans were at the Cas game. More than you would expect to attend that fixture on a Friday

And you think that has absolutely nothing to do with Castlefords massive upturn in performances? Or Bradford's massive downturn?

Not sure what that means or what it's referring to.

Warrington had their lowest attendance of the year against Cas on a Friday night .
