Second largest of the round, competing with the FA cup final, on Television and significantly larger than your own quarter final match last season.

HTH.

I think we missed a trick not extending the other end of the East Stand as this sells out every week (in SL) and people wont, dont pay to go in south or north if they cant get in the east stand. I am a season ticket holder but the missuss isnt, if you could pay on the gate my missuss would have gone to a few games this season but so far hasnt been to any. It doesnt encourage season ticket holders to bring friends/partners to occasional games

Higher then 2 of the other 3.

I thought we'd have got over 9,000 given the potential for us getting to Wembley but I guess the cost of tickets for people who have already paid for season tickets was too high.

Totally agree about the east stand extension, has to be a priority imo.

It is somewhat surprising to see the average down slightly, but if you look a bit deeper, its down to the fixtures played so far. All games except Leeds have been higher than the corresponding fixture last season:

2009 / 2008
Castleford 8,104 / 8,083
Huddersfield 8,731 / 7,101
Leeds 8,623 / 9,391
Catalan 8,115 / 8,074
Salford 8,104 / N/A
Celtic 8,046 / N/A
Wakefield 9,038 / 8,427

now lets not go using facts, you'll only confuse the dullards!
