Should be a good turnout of Tigers fans on Easter Monday to help boost the Eels home season crowd average,cheers Tigers fans you noobs
15,312
Disgraceful crowd
6.5k at cambo, pathetic.
Tigers CEO has come out and implied that if fans dont turn up for the broncos showdown at cambo then the club will probably play very few games there from next year onwards.
Oooohhhh the moods getting low on here again. I love it!
Everytime I watch a game and see a shit crowd I'm secretly doing a fist pump because I know the peanuts on here will be going apoplectic.
http://nrl.com/injuries,-poor-crowd-marrs-tigers-win/tabid/10874/newsid/77589/default.aspx"I thank the 6500 fans for coming out. They are die-hard fans. I scratch my head wondering what more we can do to attract a crowd at Campbelltown Sports Stadium,'' CEO Grant Mayer said.
Mayer then announced that $10 tickets would be made available for the Wests Tigers next home match at Campbelltown against Brisbane in Round 11 on Saturday, May 24. The match marks the 15th anniversary of the clubs first premiership match in 2000.
"Come sit anywhere you like," he said.
"It is a last throw of the dice for Campbelltown to come and show they support their club. Then, we will have to reassess whether we continue to run games here at a loss.
"I feel sorry for the 6500 who did attend tonight. They're the ones who support their team through thick and thin.
"It is incredible to think 16,000 sat and stood in the rain to watch the team win against one of the competition heavyweights but, six days later, we have 6000 at one of the greatest venues in rugby league in Campbelltown Sports Stadium."
Potter said he expected a bigger turnout given the team's recent run of good form.
"It is disappointing to have 6000, I think we're not going too bad. We've won four out of six, I'd like to think we'd have some fans here that wanna come and watch a good game. And it was a good game to watch," he said.
Nofoaluma, one of a handful of Campbelltown juniors in the NRL squad, said he was also disappointed not to see more fans turnout to watch the local products.
"It's a bit upsetting for myself. Being my home town here at Campbelltown, to see 6000 is a bit sad because we've got a great fanbase," he said.
"Pretty much half the team are from Campbelltown. It's a bit upsetting to not see the many fans turn up to our home ground, especially after the performance of the boys and how we're going."
Official capacity of Parra Stadium is 20,741 according to the stadium's website
So you apparently get excited over watching people be angry about crowds, and then you spend your time reading their anger, but they're the peanuts? :lol:
Campbelltown doesn't deserve to get games if that's the sort of crowd they'll come up with. Imagine if they got a Monday night game. 4th worst crowd since the start of 2012.
Would have been well over double that Leichhardt and ANZ.
If I ran the Tigers I'd put every game I expected 18k+ in ANZ and the rest at Leichhardt.
So many local juniors, extremely cheap tickets, winning team, non Monday, what more needs to happen for the people of the Campbelltown area to show up?
