Quote: huddersfield rhino "So from the change of time does it mean SKY are not showing the West Yorkshire Derby, and this game has fallen below the Wire playing the Chemics, it is only 14 years ago since the Super League record ground was set between Norther and Leeds. However will the game actually take place, will Northern still be in business. I fear the gate may be less than 10,000, considering their last home game drew just over five thousand and will five thousand Leeds supporters go?'"
I would say 10k is close to being a good prediction.
It is genuinly sad that this game was the must see game for us a decade ago and would have drawn around double the attendance even when on TV.
Time moves on and things change i suppose.I am looking forward to the derby with Cas far more this year with the way they have started.It's like the late 80's early 90's again!
