Its a great achievement, especially since the prices went up, maybe by 2 quid a game in the southstand IIRC! We all start somewhere and some will stay, some will go, only an idiot would be unhappy about an incraese in support - and hopefully another nail in the latics coffin (apologies to conroy

) Roll on St George!!

Well I don't think they will come on the back of failure! I reckon most new season ticket holders will be fans who came fairly regularly anyway and decided to go the whole hog this season. If that is on the back of last seasons success then so what?

I also think the way the team played last year and the way it was coached will have really appealed to fans who remember the Lowe/Monie years not for the success but for the attitude, approach to the game and the style of Rugby played.

Playing attractive Rugby and being successful is much more likely to put bums on seats than what we witnessed in the preceding few years.

Spot on Dave....

They've only come to see the Champions

To be fair I think quite a few did just that and rallied behind the club when we were struggling in 2006. I know a few at least.

That was a very strange, but superb season (well the ending was). I said at the time that success would mean so much more to us when it finally arrived having gone through that and boy did it.
