I'm sure all Welsh calculators are defective.
I'm almost certain someone said on an older thread about 10,000 tickets had been sold for one of the Crusaders home fixtures at Wrexham... yet only 6,000 turned up....think it was the Wigan fixture?
Appararently this was because 'it was a nice day and 4,000 people were having BBQ's instead so they didnt bother turning up'
It must have been a nice day in South Wales as well.... clearly 1,000 didnt bother turning up yesterday either

No mate... definately not me. Standard 'Snakebite Sunday' down the Walkabout for me.
Probably one of the many people that have become Cronulla fans in honour of the legend that is Barry McKenzie

Think there was a lower one...sub 1000...I am sure someone will have the figures and game to hand.
1,276 was the gate for Halifax v London in 2003 BTW......and I fear for the attendance for Crusaders v Quins this year

| Was anyone actually EXPECTING a high turnout at Neath? Apart from the dozen or so people from S Wales who post here, when the Wrexham ANZACS chased the "big bucks" in NewportsorrynowitsWrexham they p i s s e d off such RL fans as had grown in S Wales.
We should welcome them back with open arms maybe? BISER MON POSTERIEUR as Les Cats might say.
And really, is 1495 such a low crowd? Even in the mighty Rugby League heartlands of Wrexham they are getting attendances only 50% higher and that's with a great rugby league team playing on their doorstep week in week out. (Widnes Vikings).
I mean I'm sure the Crusaders' S Wales dhimmis that post on here will have a little bitch and a moan and try and spin this as bitterness. But facts is facts. South Wales (excepting the dorky dozen) don't give a fark about the Wrexham ANZACS. So don't b i t c h at us for not turning up to watch a team that is nothing to do with us. WE (except the 12) DO NOT WANT YOU. WE DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU. It seems neither do Wrexham after the first few matches, but THAT'S not our problem either.

| Oh and I agree with CRUSADERS FOREVER. Had the match been played in Wrexham, the attendance would have been AT LEAST 2,300. Taking out the 1st 3 games, the average attendance in the RL heartlands that is Wrexham is what? 3,500? FAR higher than the 3,250 the Celtic Crusaders used to get.

We'll give you a boost in a couple of weeks' time.
You're about the same as Quins then.

It's been a while since we've visited Wrexham (I think an international was played there once) so I would imagine 3000 to 5000 will turn out, especially if the weather is nice.

| Quote ="Barry_McKenzie"Barry McKenzie will be very surprised if this fixture gets more than 2000
Tops.
Why?
Lets see.
The old Celtic Crusaders pretty much vomited in the faces of their loyal supporters by upping sticks and moving to Wrexham. Consequently now the majority of those 100 or so people now follow South Wales Scorpions. So the likelihood of those few people turning out to watch the newly named version of the club that screwed them over must be very slight.
Most people in Neath (that dont follow the SW Scorpions) support the Ospreys and therefore have no interest in league. Gareth Thomas wont be playing... so bang goes the few that would come along to watch him playing.
Given the fact Crusaders fans from Wrexham are starting to drift away already now the novelty is wearing off I cant see many travelling to South Wales.
I will be surprised if anymore than 100-150 Castleford Tigers fans bother to make the long journey from Yorkshire to South Wales on a Sunday. This fixture should have been played on a Saturday.. thereby giving people from Yorkshire to travel down on the Saturday and at least make a bit of a weekend out of it in Cardiff or Swansea.
Why oh why do clubs like Crusaders do this kind of thing?'"
you clearly dont no much about rugby league do you if you did ud see that the crusaders beat there biggest attendence recored by like double in there first game there against leeds plus they are now pushing for a place in the playoffs as they are level on points with a game in hand against the bottom club. plus they have managed to lure in some quality players and deffinately the joint ebst if not the best coaching staff in the league so the move has obviously payed off.
yes its a shame some people were let down after about 2500 fans maybee went to watch a team that won 3 out of 27 matches so fair play to them but at the end of the day its the best thing for the club. plus south wales get around 650-700 every game which isnt bad for a team that low down which is more than 100.

Would now be an appropriate time to inform that you missed out a question mark, at the end the above question?

Oy Spongy, who do you think you are calling a "fan"?
1) Fan is short for fanatic. I have never been a fan, only a supporter.
2) I am not a supporter either. Of anyone.
3) You DO realise that bitter and factual don't mean the same thing don't you?
4) I realise your supporter base is falling quicker than Nick Clegg's popularity, but you're not claiming me as one of your number.
