4500 at Salford tonight, bad weather to blame? First game new stadium, would genuinely have expected more
Bigger crowd at London !!! Looks like Salford have got more than an i-pitch to worry about. |

The gate of 8120 was better than our previous SL opener against Saints which was 8700.Saints brought a good 3000 that night opposed to the Wakefield support of around 700.I make that a good 1700 more Widnes fans.Fantastic attendance for us.

Previous SL attendances against Wakefield:
29/3/2002 6,185
31/5/2003 5,179
17/8/2003 5,697
25/7/2004 5,104
17/7/2005 6,116
Average 5,656
Given the weather conditions and the live Sky coverage, an increase of around 45% on the above average puts friday's crowd into perspective. A great turnout!

A good attendance yes I thought 6,000 before game as it was live on sky. However most of the new fans left on 65-70 minutes does not bode well for them attending the next home game.

How long has 8120 been more than 8700? It's about 580 less isn't it?  |

I'd guess cold and time more than anything as the game wasn't lost that early even if they had gone into the lead. Hopefully the weather / time / SKY factor will balance out with those just coming as it was the first game and we can see our crowds settle around w similar level across the season. |
