5% sounds fine when you put it like that. But look closer and last years game was on a Thursday night mid season compared to a Friday home season opener. 500-600 more people therefore isn’t really impressive and taking in the above factors I would say in reality it’s not an improvement on last year
Probably true but if the Leeds following had been even remotely close to the one Wigan will take to Headingly in the return fixture it would have been the 2nd highest attendance so far. The first being Saints when they played..... Wigan.
It's all a matter of perspective really. Ateotd it was an increase on the corresponding fixture last season. With a 20,000+ crowd due this weekend I think Wigan are the least of Superleague's problems.
