Attendance
The club has attracted a significantly lower set of attendance figures than the Manchester Storm did. During the teams first season the average attendance for all home league fixtures was given as 2,267, in a 17,245 seat arena (although only approx 4,500 seats were made available for public use during games). When the move to Altrincham was completed, the attendance averaged 800, climbing to 1,027 in the 09-10 season. This makes the club the third best attended club in the EPIHL, behind the Guildford Flames and Milton Keynes Lightning, and the ninth overall in Great Britain.

Famous quotes containing the word attendance:
“We, too, had good attendance once,
Hearers and hearteners of the work;
Aye, horsemen for companions,
Before the merchant and the clerk
Breathed on the world with timid breath.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
