Quote: Code13 "The crowd was 50% up on the corresponding fixture from last season.
What more can you ask for?
If it had been on another day, without snow it might have been higher, but 5k+ in that weather on Friday night TV game isn't bad at all.
If Salford keep up that level of increase there will be a lot of embarrassed pundits about.
As for Huddersfield, it isn't a standalone club but it is moving their and that's ultimately the long term goal. I'd suggest that only Leeds and Wigan could truly claim to be standalone.
Oh and no way did 1500 Cas fans travel. It always amazes me the sheer stupidity of numbers suggested for away fans in these situations.
500 Cas fans tops.'"

That stand was nearly full and hold just over 2,000 I'm led to believe.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

The north stand at Leigh must hold at least 5,000 then jc, it is double the size of the ones at Barton

| Quote: GT "From someone who was there, stood at the other end of the ground, considering how full the stand was and how many it holds I'd say 1,500 is about right. Unless you know something I don't?'"
Obviously vastman, knows more about the crowds size than the salford and cas fans that were actually there, and the neutrals watching on tv.
Or alternatively he could just be upset because cas took a decent turnout and he has a problem with anything positive said about cas.

| I was sat in the main stand, great hospitality by the way, there were a lot of Castleford fans in the main stand as well who were very vocal. Shame about the weather, must have kept the locals away. Getting away was slow, stewards were having a tough time but the snow was to blame not them.
The game should not have been played.
