Quote: Sir Kevin Sinfield "When Catalans got to the final in 2007 the attendance was 84,241 only 1 Challenge Cup Final since then has had a higher attendance. I can see nothing to suggest that Huddersfield would take more fans to the semi final than Catalans.'"


Wembley carries neutral support,semi finals carry limited neutral support. Your point is irrelevant.

That was the first final at the new Wembley, so plenty of neutral interest for folk wanting to go and experience the new stadium.

Zero neutral support from France.

Irony is represented below. [quote="JEAN CAPDOUZE":162hm7sy]He is not telling the truth. He is talking paranoid rubbish.[/quote:162hm7sy]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_59837.jpg



Quote: JEAN CAPDOUZE "Catalans vs Leeds would be a block buster as far as crowds go, especially if it was held in Perpignan. The French would flock in their thousands. Catalans vs Leigh would be a disaster, crowd wise, wherever it would be held, because the French look down on lowly Leigh.'"


Where as if it was held in the UK, it would be a disaster with zero away support.

icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif seriously you think catalans would take more support to bolton than the giants, deluded.

and that 2007 final was the first ever at the new wembley

for the giants final at wembley we took well over 10k cant remember the actual figure may have been 14k or upto 17k , catalan wont take that many to wembley if they reach that far

Many people attended the 2007 final at Wembley because the Catalans were playing. I sat there in the midst of thousands of Catalans fans.

So you think all of the 84,241 crowd were either Saints fans or neutrals?

JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover. There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76030.jpg



Quote: Sir Kevin Sinfield "So you think all of the 84,241 crowd were either Saints fans or neutrals?'"

There were about 2,500/3,000 Catalans fans all sat together at one end......I'd be surprised if Saints sold any more than 20,000, but it is fair to say that there were 60,000+ neutrals at the cup final....as is not the case normally.

We Catalans fans were not seated at one end. We were seated on halfway, in the lower tier. I have the video.
