"In fairness the Wildcats spluttered sporadically. When they were good they were very, very good and when they weren’t - they gave away penalties.":cartoons/WB182.gif



Hope all the Bulls fans that missed the match feel so guilty they go down to Belle Vue on Monday icon_wink.gif

“You are playing a game of football this afternoon but more than that you are playing for England, and more even than that, you are playing for right versus wrong. You will win because you have to win. Don’t forget that message from home. England expects every one of you to do his duty.”:1230.gif



Quote: Bilko "14,554!!!!!!!!!!!

Really shocked at that. Terrible on a Good Friday. Where have the 10,000 gone?



Glory Hunters! Thats what they are. We Wigan fans are still turning up!'"

And Huddersfield fans don't have any jokes they didn't steal from Halifax.

Bradford used to average 15k. Now they can't even get that for their biggest game of the year. Wow they have fallen from grace spectacularly.

Just for the record, since this is probably one of the only times I'll get to say this, Hull FC have the biggest average attendance in SL with 17,039, with not one crowd below 14k so far. Although I expect that to drop unless somehow we manage to stuff Saints away on Monday!

How far would you attribute those massive Hull crowds to early season success, how far to a hatred of the odious and rightly reviled Hull KR, how far to the rise of Tom Briscoe, and how far to the quality of the Hull FC website?

Just realised slstats.org missed out the Hull vs Catalans attendance, so the average is 15,900. Still the largest, though.

Quote: Alice's Phallus "How far would you attribute those massive Hull crowds to early season success, how far to a hatred of the odious and rightly reviled Hull KR'"

Our crowds have grown with the presence of KR most certainly.
And they are slightly higher most likely due to our run of form (the game against Wigan being because it was our first of the season).

Quote: Alice's Phallus "how far to the rise of Tom Briscoe, and how far to the quality of the Hull FC website?'"

You having a laugh, right? I doubt very few people go to the rugby because the club has a good website!

Oh really?

Did Bradford have a different ground back when they got to 5 Grand Finals on the bounce?

Playing bad for a decade – what about the 5 Grand Finals on the bounce?

Why not do what the missing Bulls fans do.

























Buy a Leeds shirt.

Bulls win game. Folk who do not wish us well find things to whinge about. Nothing new under the sun.

A casual stroll throught the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything.:11062.gif



I think the scope of activities available in West Yorkshire compared to Wigan/Saints (eating pies/rugby league) and Hull (kicking people in the face/rugby league) keep Leeds/Bradford derby crowds low IMHO.

Nice try. It actually occurred in West Yorkshire involving people from, err. West Yorkshire.

Bye for now.
