They were playing the Crusaders who probably brought around 12 and were rewarded by an amazing attendance.

Why can't Harlequins RL do the same?

Because they are too busy competing with all the London soccer clubs on a saturday afternoon, putting all the fans into one stand, providing the most boring rugby in super league in front of ever more embarrassing crowds.

I will say it again, unless things drastically change the club will not get a super league licence next time around.

You may be right on some points, but you're wrong about us losing our licence. Nice stadium, geographically good, good junior production line. We're ahead of Celtic, Salford and Wakey without pulling a crowd or winning a game.

I recall commenting on the fact that I thought there was a large proportion of kids at the game against Wakefield compared to some NRL games. I was informed by someone on here that it was because they had come to see this George Sampson fella.

If that is true.....I'm not sure how to assess it.
your average before this game was 5,842 and you got 7,893. Let's say that the Celtic game would have matched the Quins gate of 5,079.....just to be fair, then 2,814 people turned up at £10/£5 a pop to watch Diversity.......and excluding beer, food etc.....you needed to get £18k back from these people...so £6.40 each. Honestly, how many Kids were there? If the 2,814 were all kids, you lost £4k but if they were all over 16.....you made 10k.

More importantly, you got your second highest gate of the year and your marketing team should be applauded!

All pre booked tickets were £10 not £5.
