I don't think so either, but I would hardly be surprised if the attendance was rubbish. Anyone reading the press and internet would be forgiven for thinking that every seat at Subiaco was restricted viewing. Sure, it isn't great, but the decline we have seen has far more to do with negative reinforcement than fact. The second year we had a decline in memberships but not much change in attendance. If it was just the viewing, that was the year we would have seen attendances plummet. Instead, it coincided with the "Subi is crap" campaign - say it often enough, people will believe it and focus on the ground rather than the rugby. Not that it hasn't worked in it's way...we will shortly fit into a minimal upgrade so we do have a shot at a rectangle.
Still, can't help but wonder what might have been if we had instead focused on the rugby. The Government has always thrown "business case" at us - had we not discouraged attendance and then expanded the S14...
