Is it not time to stop laughing at fans for empty seats?

Once and for all.

It's a tiny town. 1 in 4 inhabitants go to their home games. That's a great ratio in a rugby town, smack bang in between Manchester and Liverpool.

People up there have better things to spend their limited money on than ?60 tickets to a semi final at Wembley. Especially when they'll have to go back down for the final again in a month.
