But Hull and Hull KR are not in the Challenge Cup anymore.
The only "derby" you two are associated with is now the "Friendly Derby". |

The RFL has to work with the BBC if we want coverage on terrestrial TV, or just play it and see if they can fit it in and just go with the semis and final? |

First week of August is the football Charity Shield at Wembley.

Should have played it in a smaller stadium, all those empty seats were embarassing on the telly, nevermind the pathetic, boring RL on show.

I'm tending to think now that it should have been staged in a bigger stadium. Having empty seats in a 13k stadium for a semi final looked, and was, bobbins. Maybe aiming higher and getting say 16-17k in a 25k stadium might actually have looked better somehow.

Pathetic!'"
When you get to play your local rivals four times a season, it doesn't surprise me that they struggle to sell out. I'd imagine a lot of people gamble on not going to the semi so they have a bit more money in their pocket to pay for finals. |

If 13000 people didnt want tickets yesterday why are an extra 3000 people going to buy them for a bigger stadium. Quite simple the demand wasnt there. tickets were available for those who wanted them. A half empty £25k stadium would look simply stupid (unless you do like Huddersfield do and try and leave the stand under the TV cameras as empty as possible to fill the rest).
I may be looking at this in a wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to simplistic point of view but whats the point of creating extra spaces when there's no demand.
I'm one of the first to slate the RFL when they screw it up but yesterday I actual think that the numbers at the game indicated they may have just got it bang-on |
