agree, even though there looked to be less than that actually in the stadium, we were saying pre match how impressive hull's support is, considering they have only 1 major trophy to their name in 30 years,imagine if they had been succesful what crowds they would get.
also thought the noise was the best i've ever heard at the KC, (although outsung for the majority by the 80 giants fans )
for a thursday night and against a team with virtually no away support it was a good effort from hull fc!

speaking of which, got to the gate last night expecting to pay £20 as that is the price that was advertised on the official websites of both clubs to find the price was £24, i know it's "only £4" more but are clubs allowed to increase prices on the day without giving prior notice?

nothing to do with any boycott, as has already been stated and is well known across RL, our away support is dismal, i don't think any of us that went expected anything like a half decent following last night,but i don't think we expected it to be that bad.
our fans are notorious for giving live sky games a miss, added to the fact it was a thursday night and the team aren't winning and it was in hull, then every reason for our fans no show was there.
fwiw i thought the ones who did go were very good and backed the team well despite the awful showing, again, from our team.

Aye, they usually "look after" the away fans at The KC.
Mind you, the Galpharm (John Smiths) stadium is never cheap !

Hull are doing some deals for away fans this season but only for certain games. It was £19 for Bradford fans paying in advance.

I think that's the key everywhere, buy in advance and it's less than on the gate.

That was a bite???
