No (well, actually, it was on Saturday given the police incident under Sherdley Bridge), but travelling and then paying £10 for non ST holders for a foregone conclusion has obviously put people off.

I'm not defending the turnout from Saints, btw, just adding my thoughts on why the turnout for the Fax - Bulls game was perhaps surprisingly high.

No. Nor was I willing to travel.



Yes, players can get injured in formalities.

5045 according to the Beeb.

Still better than Saints' fans' pathetic effort!

8,026 at Wigan today for the visit of Barrow.

St. Helens Wild Boars V Hindley

Well over 6,000 to watch the Back to Back Challenge Cup Winners against Keighley Cougars

So 3/4 of what a big club like Wigan would expect then?

Or nearly twice as many as a one time big club


By the way Sad One, how about a beer before the Wire Saints game at the HJ later in the season.
I would spend the time counselling you on how its a RL tradition to support the team where you live.

We will bring loads more than sheff did so that will swell the crowd

Hopefully being a round further on more people will attend

thought the wild boar was extinct in the uk since the days of Henry V111

You would hope so but for this round people have to pay, so I'm not holding my breath!
