10,621 for a Challenge Cup "Qualifying Final" match. Be interesting to see what the split between the two teams was.

To watch my own team i'd pay, the issue is, i didn't care about either side yesterday, but would have gone if it was a more reasonable price, as i prefer to watch games live. Im sure lots more feel the same.

Hull appeared to have marginally more fans there, perhaps just under 6000. Personally I think the kick off time affected the gate. 6 pm on a Sunday is hardly the optimum time slot .

You know what I couldn't care less if it didn't look good on TV to people watching the game for the first time. The atmosphere yesterday sounded like it was a sell out at times and it is a day I will always remember.

Give me 10,000 diehards over 25,000 bandwagoners any day of the week.

Its about time in Rugby League we started to concentrate on doing things on the pitch rather then worry about what is going on off it. The atmosphere at Wembley will be nowhere near that of say a League game between Hull and Wigan because of the neutrals or bandwagoners that both clubs will bring.

Completely agree! best atmosphere for the Hull game for ages, and largely because we left the apathetic and/or miserable fans at home!

Don’t be getting distracted with all this CC malarkey, you haven’t updated the SL stats showing Wakefield’s relentless march up the league icon_wink.gif .

I think that a lot of fans of the top few clubs take too many matches as a gimmie, all they think they need to do is, buy a season ticket, one ticket for Wembley & one for Old Trafford.

Warrington travelled 40 miles
Hull travelled 71 miles
Wigan travelled 8 miles and were still within their own borough.

It rather begs the question that if the two clubs who travelled the greatest distance averaged 6,000 why on earth couldn't the alleged biggest name in Rugby League persuade more than that number to walk down the road to support them.

They averaged 5k, 1k less than Wigan. Anything else at the bottom of that barrel of yours?

You obviously weren't looking very hard, but then again, if it suits your agenda to run down those that bothered to trawl 200+ miles with the very likely result that we saw, then fair enough.

Well as I don't know what the split for yesterday was I could make an educated guess that one of the teams were at or very close to 6000. You still haven't justified your low attendance for what was effectively a home game.

We all know its the Giants fault the crowd was low, lets look at the key reasons.

1. Warrington charged £5 for coach travel for the game on Sunday, outrageous!
2. People had to pay for a game £20 is a joke
3. The game was on TV, so why would you go. I mean look at old Trafford when Man UTD play and the game is on sky, the place is practically empty.

So to conclude, it is the fault of people of Huddersfield that two of the biggest clubs in the country could not even half fill a stadium that that the giants play in! Congratulations on filling a ground the size of wakefields (no disrespect to wakey).

Either 6k is low or it isn't mate, make your mind up.

Quote: TheElectricGlidingWarrior "Was it Warrington, Hull, or both teams that couldn't manage to bring more supporters to a Challenge Cup semi than Wigan's supposedly paltry 6,000?'"





They only had 100 more for the home game the round before. icon_eek.gif
