El D sums it up nicely. Can see us being outnumbered but who cares? Were gona win it regardless.

So they have more novelty fans than us

Nope, just that the novelty has worn off for our novelty fans.

First final is a novelty thing.

2013 Wigan Warriors 16 v Hull FC 0 Wembley 78,137
2012 Warrington Wolves 35 v Leeds Rhinos 18 Wembley 79,180
2011 Wigan Warriors 28 v Leeds Rhinos 18 Wembley 78,482
2010 Warrington Wolves 30 v Leeds Rhinos 6 Wembley 85,217
2009 Warrington Wolves 25 v Huddersfield Giants 16 Wembley 76,560
2008 St Helens 28 v Hull FC 16 Wembley 82,821
2007 St Helens 30 v Catalans Dragons 8 Wembley 84,241

Coincidence that our first Wembley appearance had the highest attendance for the New Wembley? Nope.

I'm going with 2 others.
I have to compliment the club for the exemplary, speedy fashion that they dealt with my application.
The IF form worked a treat, got my first choice, informed me by e-mail on Monday & I received the tickets by first class post today.
Excellent service.

I'm going, but then again the missus and I go every year.

I can understand why many Leeds fans don't want to go - it's a bit like being a Saints fan in October.

I think people tend to forget that Many Leeds fans, as with Wigan, buy their tickets throughout the year, with the expectation of possibly getting their. If not they just go anyway. At that time not known which end each at.

The number of Cas fans that would have done that will probably be about 1 to 10 of Leeds.

They will be outnumbered because if neutrals on the day, but they won't be outnumbered by actual Cas supporters.

The current stadium plan showing ticket availability tells its own story - although neutrals who want a team to back will no doubt rather back Cas than Leeds so that would probably inflate sales at the Cas end to a degree.

There were large blocks of empty seats at our end for the Wigan final and i'd imagine it will be the same this time. I think numbers will be about even but it won't feel like it with the neutral support for Cas. But you don't win anything for having big crowds.

I live in Cas and there was a lot of excitement when the semi draw was made. I think there's going to be lots of them in the neutral seats

Gona go get our tickets on Tuesday morning. F-ck knows where we will end up going that late to get them?

511 or 516 would be ideal.

How many you after? There was a boat load in 516 yesterday when I went up to the RFL.

Just the two by the looks of it. Alot of us cant afford it two weeks after the semi. Gona go down and grab them tomorrow afternoon.

I've never really thought about the period between the semi and the final having an impact of ticket sales but the fact that having them both fall in the same month means if you attend both they come out of the same pay packet.

Both are away games, both are not on your season ticket, so both are going to cost a wedge of cash (with the final obviously costing more).

I guess this is another reason why the RFL should look at pushing the semi further apart from the final.
