Bit confused here, bloke asked a genuine question, can’t it just be answered without the “we all hate you”.
Not being funny but if you don’t like him ignore him!

You clearly don't know the history of this guy. There were anti Rupe T shirts at one point

Welcome to the old world of Harlequins

I don’t go digging through historical chats WQ so don’t do history of posters.
As long as folk are not being abusive or hurling personal insults then happy to, debate, argue with anyone.
Just a bit shocked at response, he asked a q that was in the end easy enough to answer. And “call” thanks for getting the figure, it is slightly better than last year (still not good)

922 average for the 11 regular season games. By contrast Leigh averaged 3,538, Rochdale 552.

As for the vanishing act of attendances being announced/published. This happened about 3 years ago when there was a conscious decision made by the cubs/RFL not to include these in their match reports as the general "chatter" on RL forums was being clouded by the discussions about the decline in interest from fans and ergo sponsors etc.....this year The RFL have been happy to only include one clubs attendance figures in dispatches.....the mancpack, whereas the likes of Wakefield and Salfords crowds have been swept under the carpet. That said, they can always be found with the rare exception.....if you're that keen to find them.

As for this.....

The simple act of you being alive does that....being on this forum just amplifies it! Jog On

Wakefield announce their attendance at every home game.

Think the point being made is the attendance used to be published with the match report.
Look on the RFL, BBC website results page it is noticeable that the figures are usually missing.
Announcing it over the tannoy at a game is different

Good god SL must be just round the corner!

Listy how was your experience last week?? Enjoy it!!

I enjoyed myself tremendously. I quite enjoy standing pitchside and the bar is excellent. Frustratingly I can't make the Halifax match though. Fingers crossed things go out way and there'll be one more oppprtunity to visit this season. Was good to see some old faces.

Wantawin, do I need to explain the concept behind ignore? It’s your choice no one else’s.
