Quote jaybs="jaybs"Right from early on with Wilkin's kick on the floor virtually in front of the sticks it did not feel right, yes it was good that the players came back as they did but did Warrington just take there foot off the pedal and came back strong in the last 10 minutes?
Still not convinced with the Manchester Magic! they claim the attendance was 30,000 and there about less than first days in Cardiff, but the stadium felt empty! one RL weekly editor/owner claimed he felt there was more these, my reply was then the stadium must hold 100,000 and not the 48,805 it does hold. Typical Red Hall and CEO during the week hyping up the weekend saying extra tickets had to be released and parts of the ground opened up, well watching it again on TV in the last 10 minutes last night the stadium felt empty!'"
The Hull v hull KR match saw the largest volume of species in the stadium, as soon as that match ended most Hull and Hull KR fans headed for home.
It was also clear at half time of the Wolves v Saints match that many neutrals had seen the scoreline of 30-10 and thought it not worth bothering watching wire run up a cricket score against Saints and so didn't return for the second half.
I do wonder if the closeness of Manchester to the heartlands, means that most fans who make the effort just come to watch their own match, and then go home. Whereas perhaps at Cardiff the distances involved meant people would make a weekend of it, or at the very least make it a day out and take in more than one match.
Certainly the impression I got was that most Cas and Wakefield fans went home after their match, and same also with Hull and Hull KR fans.
Only fans who stayed behind were the Catalan fans.
