We're still still here, but I wish we were in an Anglo-Welsh

Were the initial figures for calendar year 2025?

That’ll be a no. 

Wasp, were your figures league games only, or all matches this season? The initial figures exclude European Competition, as I read it.

The derby with Glasgow is held at Murrayfield I believe.

Ah, I did wonder if a big game was inflating the numbers somewhat. That makes sense. Those averages need standard deviations!

When you consider population size these figures are great.

Northampton's pathway has a bigger population than all of Wales but they have an average attendance 9,000 lower.

Saracens have an average attendance which is about 4000 more than their ground capacity as they sell out the Tottenham stadium once a year which equates to about 6 sellouts at the StoneX.
