Ohh, it's another away fan penis measuring contest. Lovely stuff. Let's just wait for all 8,146,015 Hull KR away fans to come whip theirs out and we can receed into the insecurity of our size.

and your point is?

I didn't go and had no intention of going , I don't like the travel to Hull and I don't like coaches because I get travel sickness.

I'll have you know he is a nice fella.

So what if Saints only took 200, so what if Wigan took a billion. Does anyone really give a ?

Rogues does, it seems.

It's quality that counts, not quantity. Saints fans are quality. They sounded great on the TV today.

I couldn't really tell how many there were at the game, but I've watched it back on tv since and it seems there were only about 400.

Bank Holiday, Injuries, Sky tv but i'd still have expected 800-1000?

There was a group of about 50 of us stood at the back just to the left of the sticks who sang throughout the game, i'm sure most will not have their voices back until later in the week, great game...

Because it's wrong for a neutral fan to go to a game 70 miles away from home and cheer for another team to win?

And the guy in question is actually a big contributor to these boards.

It's because we don't have any Ultras.

Have to say, I expected more of your fans to turn up today. The ones that came sang ok, but far less then your previous turn outs.

I would personally cheer for a yorkshire team apart from hull kr if i was supporting a yorkshire team myself, but one more person in kc contributes money so thanks all the same.

As a Hull fan i thought the away support was tremendous in terms of backing but poor in terms of numbers. Fair play to those who came at the end of the bank hol weekend. I include myself in that as I live about 10 miles north of St Helens!

Phil Bentham scoured the video tape and despite conclusive evidence that Smith was a half yard offside, he allowed the try to stand. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Saints are a big-game team with bags of big-game experience. They have won five Challenge Cups from six final appearances in the Super League era and have won five Grand Finals in that time too. Add two World Club Championships to that and you have the roll-call of the best rugby league team this country has produced in the modern-era - and it's a phenomenal record. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ancient & Royal wrote.... "You are proud to be associated with that dis-organised band of mercenaries? I am ashamed to be a Wigan fan hell yes, what have we got to be un-ashamed about? We are a joke, a laughing stock, we are NOTHING, why cant people understand!":11659.jpg



Just how many away fans ever bothered to come to Knowsley Road, or Widnes this year for that matter in a superior stadium?

Pound for pound we take as many away fans to games as most teams do and far more than some in SL.

Of the teams that visit us I'd say only Wigan and Warrington bring 1500-3000 on occasions. Behind them everyone brings less than a 1000(generally) with the likes of Wakey, Salford, Hudds Cas, Hull KR and Quins, Crusaders bringing less than 500 and as low as 50 for some of those.

Let's geat real here as I go away whenever possible and know for a fact that it's very rare for Saints to have less than a 1000 travelling fans at venues like the HJ, the DW, Galpharm, Headingley, Odsal, Castleford, Wrexham, the Willows and Wakefield, etc.

If every team brought the away support we take to them, our attendaces would be up between 500-700 per game at least.

We don't need to justify it or make excuses when on a rare occasion we have a low away turnout. Last year at Hull we nearly filed our end in another cracking match. So this was a bit of a blip in difficult financial times. icon_smile.gif

Well,it cost me for a family of 4;
£46 coach
£44 admission,even though the kids were free with their seaso tickets
£15 at the Viking Fisheries chippy(worth every penny btw)
£10 for a round of drinks in the pub

Not everyone has the money to be going to away matches.I never comment on away support as at times its expensive enough to watch your team at home.Don't forget,every 'home' match is an away match in terms of travel fo saints fans this year.Oh and the match was on sky,but that should make people want to watch it live,not listen to the Muppet Show.
