Attendance figures

With the figures shown in the rugby paper today, re attendance ,
we have ( Understandably) reduced our average attendance, and
with BSKO falling just shy of 37k, is it time for the club to
drop BSKO?
Big game now is a firm fixture and usually produces good profits
so that’s a given

What are the 21-30 etc numbers?
Pretty meaningless without home games at the stoop in isolation,
but clearly from attending numbers are way down. A combination
of rip off prices and terrible rugby.
I don't think they will drop bsko. It's rubbish, but if the
rugby gets better it could become a success.

The rental price deal on BSKO is lower than for Big Game as I
understand it so the break even point is lower. That said, it
wasn't a roaring success ticket sales wise this year.
No surprise attendances are down for The Stoop generally. The
walk up prices are high and the on pitch product has been
dreadful for a lot of the season. To a certain extent
performances don't matter but it would appear that extent has
been reached and passed and this should sharpen minds.

That’s the order of largest individual games, ie top 10,

I imagine the club will have been pleasantly surprised that the
drop was only 3.7% given the scheduling. It's still not great,
it seems to be more difficult to find a good weekend for BSKO
than BG - but a small dip because of a clash with the biggest
non- international sporting event is unlikely to stop them
persisting. However much you don't like it.

quite a few friday night games this season, they are difficult
for us to get to due to travel etc after work, I would imagine
its similar for others so maybe some drop off there, with the
performance this year hardly surprising the attendance is down,
especially at the tail end of the season with nothing to play
for and pretty horrible rugby being played.

From the numbers on Wikipedia, I think Worcester got attendances
of about 7,400, vastly more than any other Champ side.

The club will see this as a blip linked to us being rubbish. A
change in fortunes on the pitch will see numbers go back up
quickly. If this is the same or worse next year, we might see
action taken but I don’t think those changes anything.

The attendance at Welsh clubs is truly horrific. I didn’t
realise the clubs are so poorly supported. It explains why they
are in such a mess and keep asking for a Welsh/English
competition.

Didn't we have the LV Cup a few years ago, and that was for
English and Welsh clubs?
There used to be a steady progression into the 1st XV: A League
on a Monday night, then the LV Cup, then 1st XV for
Premiership/Heineken Cup
