Quote: wrencat1873 "Jean, what do you think will happen to the attendance at Wembley, for the Challenge Cup Final, if Catalan make it this time around ?
Although there may be a few hundred of your "fellow countrymen" attending, this will be massively short of the usual 20,000 plus ticket sales for any cup final side.'"
Interestingly in Union (or not), Leinster ( Dublin, IRE) played Racing 92 (Paris France) in Bilbao, (Basque Country, Spain) recently........and they only had 1,007 unsold seats, with a crowd of 52,282. In 2015 2 French sides met in the final in London and attracted over 56,000 fans to Twickenham......so French fans will travel to watch their sides. Maybe the RL need to market to this audience more?
I'm also interested in how many Wakefield would bring to the final if they got there........considering the pitiful averages they have at present.....
