What % of registered seniors and juniors from CF region is our crowd figure. Would be interesting as this should be the major fan base.

Also, why would people go to the game today , when it is. 2 for 1 in just a few days time?
With the coupon it was 2 games for one so a few will have taken that option.

That's what I thought last week, but no. It's 2 for one for Thursday only, not the CCM game)Http://lmgtfy.com/?q=QFT
David Dome and Gareth Morgan I know you are reading this. Sign this man up now!
I've been thinking next season it would be great to fill the stadium for a game. Optimistic... maybe? Possible.. Why Not?
Given that we would need not only the football community to support it but also the general public some serious thinking outside the square is in order and crafty marketing to get the bums on seats.
Really good ideas Rotamota. Last time we filled the stadium though, it was because we were winning - like we were winning a lot. We got on such a hot winning trot that we filled the ground in the playoffs. When we start winning again, and get a home final or two - we will fill the stadium, again. Sad but true. But it's not Manchester here.
Hurricanes may be in the same boat shortly. Poor first up home crowd, loss away from home, and if they lose to Crusaders this week, they will be in early season crowd trouble. This town won't tolerate losers any more. Simple.

Sad but it's true until NZ sporting fans mature a bit.

How many people go to the sevens and don't care about the rugby? If NZ wins or loses? Why do they go?... Simple the atmosphere. I reckon we can create that atmosphere ( if not better ) and recruit a few on the way. Why not make it annual event, initiation for new students, corporate event, family event with fireworks, something that is always crossed on peoples calendars as a must attend. If its charity based this will also extend the reach much further. I love the club and I'm sure with a chance to experience it ( without solely going to a phoenix game only ) many other people will also follow suit.
the 7's are a little different to a 90 minute game, it's a clear party at the stadium versus one match.
Queenslander 3x a year.
Yeah the 7's are a big party but I know for a fact that most of the extras I get to come to games come because of the atosphere and not the football. One friend doesn't even understand the rules and she doesn't want to learn them, she just loves to come along, laugh at the chants and have fun.

So given your fact just get 30-odd thousand others and it's sorted. Too easy, lock the thread.

Then a celebrity match pre-game could work so as to bolster the afternoon "event". But you are only talking a one-off event every season aren't you so I guess that might work. Maybe 2 or 3 big "event" games per season might work.
Would rather work went into increasing the crowds for every game rather than just focusing on one game and then have it drop back to rubbish afterwards.Focusing on one game is far to risky all it takes is the weather to turn to shit and it wont matter how much effort has been put in the crowds wont turn up.

Hopefully next season, the team can do more promo work around the region. There wasn't even so much as a Wendy's visit in the Valley this season.
Upper Hutt activities = Nil too.
