Might be worth putting their fans in the away end the next time there's a local derby.
7k a match including freebies, not great in my opinion!By the looks of that they’re not doing too bad attendance wise? If the figures announced are correct of course
7k a match currently if figures are true.
In comparison to the rest of the league. Have the likes of Sale and Saracens not played as many games at home?

Leicester and Bristol get big crowds because of the size of their Cities, Newcastle is a football City, with the exception of Bath who get great support the other teams are smaller Towns/Cities like Worcester, Gloucester and Exeter, then you've got an abundance of London Based teams, let's face it Rugby Union doesn't have the interest like football does in this country!I would guess most have played the same. Just shows how weak rugby is in drawing crowds.
Looking at historic figures Leicester have always been high on attendance
They havnt got a 32000 arena to look after, I'm sure their owners and local businesses help with sponsorship and wages are nothing like premiership rugby players.
32,500That is piss poor. What figure did they announce?
Also good to see them on Sunday and us on Saturday. Means we've got the primacy.
In the same weekend that CCFC come from behind to win they lose from a winning positionWhat you mean ?
If the attendances they are getting are good why on earth did they move to a 32K stadium? It can't be great for the players, and therefore for recruitment, to be playing in a less than quarter full stadium.In comparison to the rest of the league.

From the Wasps forum, in response to 'what was the crowd. Gents?'
Low
Agreed. It felt like 8-9,000.
Some of the photos I've seen it doesn't even look that.
From the photos on here it looks 5k tops
Surprised they are no quoting 15k plus. Im sure its all soemone else fault. Bonfire weekend,Sunday. Not exact temperate for their fans to come out. No enough craft ale at the stadium. Some sort of excuse.
Probably includes the 3000 free tickets for people who never turned up!They've given yesterday's attendance as 8,177 (doesn't even look anywhere near that tbh)
Think wasps are about 7th or 8th in the average attendances
Trying too hardWe actually have a really exciting young team atm. Results aren’t there but performances are. Tom Willis is a real talent

Ha. You've got a young team, not out of choice, but because the bond's been spunked on 'marquee' players who didn't want to stick around. So much for richest team in Europe, eh.
Also, I'm not sure that the performances can be there if the results aren't, but then I've seen elsewhere that you work to your own logic.
Are you actually a city fan, just out of interest, or are you just here on a wind up?
If you are a recent local based Wasps fan, then the same could be said of you!!You clearly don’t know much about rugby so we’ll leave it there

Because you'd be already supporting your local club, not jumping on a franchise bandwagon!
