16k sold for the Hull derby but a massive difference in mood between the two fan bases, Rovers are on a high after beating Saints and their fans will be snapping up whatever tickets are left...whilst us Hull fans are dreading it! I reckon a crowd of 19/20k in the end.

25,000 sold in Wigan
20,000 sold in Hull
Cas website says theirs will be close to a sellout...

That's roughly 58,000 between the three games. Just need the other 3 to come up with the 22k between them. I'm sticking by my original prediction!

Given the unreserved seating restrictions it will be a bit under 25k for the wigan game, and Hull said yesterday they were up to 17k - have they really sold 3k more today!? Be great if so, sure our Easter games produce a lot more TV viewers so great to have them played in front of packed out vociferous crowds!

Apparently so, announced today that they have hit 20k so will probs be more than that in total, I'm predicting about 21,500 which will be the largest hull derby attendance since something like 2008, I'm sure someone will correct me on that lol

what is capacity at Cas?

12,000 according to wiki

Hull and their fans deserve tons of credit for those ticket sales, especially considering the start they've had. Just goes to show the potential in our game when clubs go about promoting and advertising their games properly. Hope the game and atmosphere match the build up now!

I have no doubt that a HullFC team consistently in the top4 making finals could average 15k+ but for now we are the perenial underachievers!

Been good to see that Hull and Rovers have worked together to promote the game and have entered a gnetlemans agreement not to raise prices when each other visits (Rovers have in the past charged FC fans £10 more for that awful stand miles from the pitch, and FC started playing similar petty games with the away pricing too)

Here's to a good weekend of rugby league!

Take 2,000 off the Wakefield, Widnes and Huddersfield gates and it might be closer.

You can always rely on Saddened.

Yes, but he's right !
A couple of the other games are under the mark though so, the overall figure may not be too far off.

updates on the predictions

Hull FC vs Hull KR: 20k
Wigan vs St Helens: 25k (will be a little under this due to restrictions but will be nearer 25k than 24k hopefully)
Wakefield vs Catalans: 4k
Widnes vs Warrington: 10k optimistic prediction
Castleford vs Leeds: 11k
Huddersfield vs Salford: 6k

so should be looking at 75 to 76k which is not a bad all round effort, if leeds were at home 80k would have been surpassed.

what is the record for a 6 game round?

looks like the original prediction of 80k was a bit optimistic as the curse of thursday rugby strikes again (outside of the hull derby)

hull v hull kr 20,507
wakefield v catalan 3,015
widnes v warrington 7,768

i can see the logic in playing thursday on a short turnaround, but its clearly at a cost of fans through the turnstiles

Is Wakey's ground still restricted to 5,000? If so the original prediction was always going to be off.
