Just wondering if you can pay on the day for the Toulouse game, would expect a big crowd
Sold out already I'm afraid.
Toulouse sold 3,000 in the West Stand. Should be a cracking atmosphere.
You are so wrong, 51 at last count - probably not the lowest away crowd this season !
No words
I see the plasticine class has let out early

Your ban not been rescinded then ?

Was never going to be a big crowd.
Saturday 3pm in the football season and and amateur season.
Ridiculous kick off time that only suited one party- and it wasn’t Widnes!
@viking25 - Kick off time must have cost us at least 500 attendees today. Hopefully it isn't repeated unless unavoidable.
Saturday afternoon games have never been a Widnes thing since the early 1970s.Apart from the odd televised cup tie on BBC.
Well we will never know for sure Mick but it’s a below par crowd for this fixture and compares poorly with other recent home games against teams who are less of a draw than Toulouse. And who haven’t brought enough away fans with them to make much of a difference.
@mt Curious to why you think that 2 hrs would attract 500 extra if you wanna go the game you will it's that simple plus the attendence is a normal one and will continue to dwindle. Its not the 80's anymore.
@mick-george - Probably hadn’t really clarified that by time I meant the day as well. I’ll stand by my view that we would have got 3,500 plus on a Sunday afternoon but obviously I can’t prove it one way or the other! People with other hobbies/activities and also a fair few more people have to work on Saturdays on Sundays.
I'm content to be called an old sceptic, but there weren't anywhere near 3,000 bums on seats on Saturday. The club stats include season ticket holders whether or not they attend.
Those who missed the fixture, for whatever reason, missed an entertaining match which we could have easily won!
It wasn't the 1980s six weeks ago when 3500 turned up v Keighley and then 3200 v Halifax.The walloping at Sheffield killed the gate,as well as the Saturday afternoon.
