It would be interesting to know how many season ticket holders quins have. They only had 3883 at home against Wigan and Wigan would have taken quite a few. I suspect if we keep going well this season we'll have some bigger crowds than them, as their games against the likes of Salford, Celtic and catalans will probably be poorly attended.

There is indeed, fantastic stuff!

How many are adult tickets though? As a lot of school kids came on Thursday, so could it be that a lot of them have taken up a cracking offer of a £10 season ticket. Either way, brilliant!!

there were some free tickets been given out in schools nice to see club doing this usually don't bother

What is concerning is that Gateshead vs Barrow only attracted 502, Only Blackpool vs Hunslet had a lower attendance (265) Even London Skolars vs Swinton (637) and Workington vs Rochdale (693) got more.

502 for a first home league game is bad, Is it possible to survive in this league with such low attendances? There must have been a fair few amateur games with more speccies

Barrow took 2 coaches and various cars etc to Gatesheed, so its a terrible no show by the locals

We are expecting to average somewhere between 1700/2000 this season.

When Fax played them the other year in the NRC, someone asked us why we were in Gateshead -we said to watch Gateshead Thunder game - they said WHO? Sad indeed
