More Trinity fans at Huddersfield than there were, Leeds fans at Widnes and we're just a small club, with little to shout about.
The Leeds fans will all be there in their brand new shirts and salves though, when the big games come around but, cant be d in the early rounds.
Some may call them glory hunters  |

Little to shout about? Who was the ref? I bet he copped a fair bit as usual  |

NOBODY can be proud of a 2000 attendance for any game between 2 SL sides, it's pitiful.
Perhaps the answer is another "magic" style weekend for this particular round of fixtures.
Play all the games over a 2 day weekend at one or two venues and split the receipts (somehow).
It's no wonder that the wider public aren't interested, when even the regular "fans" cant make it from the comfort of their living room / local boozer.

Wondered why he’d not played for a while. Can we have him at Warrington then? |

Going to finals every year gets expensive, have to save a few quid every now and again for the big games, something you don't know and never will know about.
So you took 1000 to Huddersfield like I say 10 miles away, Leeds would have taken 2-3k even for a early round of challenge cup. Still managed 1000 for a Friday night game 70 odd miles down m62 carpark, you would have taken about 200-300 most.

Scheduling this round of the cup the week before Magic weekend isn't exactly the best move with people saving themselves and their money for Newcastle.

There looks to be more Toronto away fans today than any other game this round.

There were nowhere near 1,000 Leeds fans there on Friday. Our away following at Lancashire games is often poor but plumbed new depths for this one.

| Quote: TheUnassumingBadger "I imagine Widnes will be another championship semi pro club with a rich history before too long.
They are currently owned by a group of investors petrified by risk, I read an interview with James Rule in which he was basically saying they can't sign better players unless they sell lots more season tickets. Meaning 'we only want to spend your money, not our own' or 'if you buy this inferior product we will have the money to improve it'.
Good riddance come the qualifiers.'"
Putting out ‘guilt trip’ statements claiming the fans needs to back the club or else arent new for James Rule, we had years of that game at Hull...then they’d go sign some old hasbeen to shift some season tickets, hype us all up and then a bang average season and the cycle repeats |

If there’s a game last years gloryhunters will come out for its this one. Also a lot of people will be paying on the gate as obviously no season tickets for cup games.'"
Like a glory hunter such as yourself. |

Huddersfield brought just under 40 fans to BV earlier in the season.

R.E Widnes/Leeds attendance, is anyone really that shocked? From what I've seen Widnes fans are becoming more and more disillusioned with the club as the weeks go on, and I don't think Leeds fans view Widnes as the most enticing on opponents.

Over 4K for that match not the best but not that bad for hastily arranged match in bad weather with no away fans. That's twice you've been wrong with your figures also talking to a Halifax fan today and he's said Huddersfields not their derby, seems like everyone else they're not bothered about you.

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result: |
|

Didn't Wakefield have a lower average attendance than Huddersfield last season and probably this season also in fact one of the lowest averages in SL seems a bit rich Wakefield fans going on about attendances
