No mention of 'You'll never win at Wembley'? Your trolling standards are dropping.

The majority of super league clubs would love our low crowds.

Our fans do not travel well at anytime but given the fact that:

1) it's on TV
2) It's an away match
3) its on Telly
4) it isn't at home

meant there were never going to be more than a handful of us there, God knows what the Hulls fans found to do though.

He answered the OP's question. You not liking his answer is not derailment!

how is nearly 10k on a thursday night considered a bad crowd?

Easy when you're from the attendance powerhouses of east hull and uddersfield

1500 down on last season for a Thursday night game probably isn't too bad.
It's the price we have to pay for being in bed with a TV broadcaster.

How many Hudds fans were there (compared to last season) ?

Completely missed the joke did you?
Or was it just your usual feet first response?

Probably about 100, I'm not sure what they brought last year.

I think more than the Thursday night thing people have been put off by some recent poor results and the fact we we are in a big run of home games. If you're not a season pass holder then you're probably struggling to afford to go every week, and even if you can afford you still aren't going to bother paying every week if the team aren't performing.

If we played like last night every week and were sat in the top 2 then we would still get 11k+ regardless of what night it is played.

There was a relatively minor fluctuation in attendance?

You alert the papers, ill prepare the bat signal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would agree, i would imagine crowds will be down a touch on all these Thursday night games compared to last years equivalent fixtures over the weekend.

Here's some perspective on Hull FC's attendance of 9,515 last night.

1) It was the 2nd time in succession that Hull had failed to achieve a five-figure regular season home attendance. The previous home game in Round 7 attracted an attendance of 9,821 and it wasn't played on a Thursday night.

2) Prior to Hull's last two regular season home games, they had achieved 97 successive five-figure attendances dating back to 15th July 2006 when 9,247 turned up for the game against Warrington. Last night's attendance was the lowest since then.

Disposable incomes have been squeezed quite significantly in the last few years.

There are other issues and we shouldn't stick our heads in the sand, but RL doesn't operate in a vacuum and this is hardly a huge surprise.

I always boycott the KC Stadium so no suprise of the low attendence last night
