Wouldn't look good on TV - 15,000 fans in a 90,000 seat stadium.

He's got a good point though - only taking 6000 to a major final is shocking IMO. I reckon all of these clubs would easily fill a Wembley allocation:
Leeds
Wigan
Warrington
Rovers
Hull
Bradford (Probably)
Cas

| Repeat of the 1967 final would be interesting, wonder if it will ever happen again.

I kept the faith and I kept voting
Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand
For theirs is a land with a wall around it
And mine is a faith in my fellow man
Theirs is a land of hope and glory
Mine is the green field and the factory floor
Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers
And mine is the peace we knew

39110_1363272058.jpg Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Depends what you mean by allocation? How many is that.
Wigan, Hull and Leeds have the biggest support. Then Warrington and Saints (even though they took pathetic numbers to the GF). The Hull KR and Cas could probably take a good 20,000.

Would a Saints v Wire sell out, or even a Saints v Wigan. I know a HKR v Hull FC would.

| Obviously the big clashes would be:-
Wigan v Saints (a la 1961)
Hull v Hull KR (a la 1980)
Leeds v Saints (a la 197icon_cool.gif
All would sell out.
The first one the most passionate derby except maybe for two.
The third always produces great open football.
I would love to see Wire v Wigan - also a sell out no doubt.

Why do you make up these numbers? 6k indeed.
"The Rugby Football League have been equally impressed by the response of Huddersfield’s fans having sold out their initial allocation of 10,000 and with sales going into the week of the final almost matching those of Saints supporters at the same time last season."
whats the juvinile saying? pwned!
