Wigan and London would normally realistically attract 10000 at Wigan, not including add ons as Wigan automatically class season ticket holders as attended. Wigan v Saints semi final in 2011 didn't attract 12k. Wigan and Leeds last year attracted just over 12500. Today was an average attendance and looks bad due to Londons following. Very rich thread from a Huddersfield fan

Would have probably been better attended at Warrington or St. Helens. The journey from Wigan to Leigh and back is awful. No train service. The road between to two towns is awful and for some reason seems to constantly have roadworks on it.

Why's it rich, everyone can't wait to have a pop at the Giants, not nice when boots on other foot an all that? 6274 for a semi final is embarrassing end of.

well if the Giants SHOULD be getting 10,000 for every game because we're top of the league then Wigan SHOULD be getting twice that for the success they've had....why is it always acceptable for other teams fans not to go to a game but we get shot down for it for not having any to go ?

All you who have bagged our crowds this year should be tearing into Wigan fans over this, but obviously they will be defended and whatever excuses they use will be accepted as geniune reasons.

Here here Daz, it's the old do as I say not as I do syndrome, there's only 1 club that can be got at for having a poor attendance, all other clubs are exempt!!

Try getting there from Kent! Stupid excuse given Leigh is next door to Wigan.

It was a forgone conclusion, costing money that could be saved for a Wembley trip in a few weeks. The problem is with the pricing, timing and cup as a whole - not Wigan, who really can't be attacked for their fan base!

I don't blame the ones who stayed away tbh... even London didn't bother turning up.

It's eight bloody miles!

It'd be like Hull playing in Beverley.

St. Helens is the same distance but it wouldn't surpise me to see a bigger crowd if it were played there.

It was a Saturday late afternoon kick off. Plenty of time to get there and back.

I don't completely blame the Wigan fans though. The RFL must shoulder the blame for the stupid scheduling of the Cup rounds.

This isn't anything to be proud of and of course it should be the case but Wigan will have had the biggest following of any team at a Challenge cup semi this weekend by the sounds of how tomorrows games sales are going.

Today's crowd isn't a Wigan issue, it's an issue of the game in general.

Unless Huddersfield are involved, or has someone woke up and smelled the coffee.

With the current malaise that surrounds the challenge cup at the moment, and the common consensus that the game was going to be a walk over,then i think todays attendance wasn't that bad

Think this is bad wait for Thursday games! Especially the next one! Think attendences will drop rapidly!

You'll only hear about it if the Giants are involved!!
