or maybe we just gave loads of tickets away for the league game previous friday, look how many kids were playing at half time on the field and the band going round'"
Castleford only got a little over 3000 for their cup tie on a Saturday afternoon. Funnily enough no dig from Peter smith of the Yorkshire evening post for that crowd figure. But then he's not a Salford fan he's a Leeds fan so didn't feel the need to put in a dig like he did against us.
Crowd numbers for the challenge cup rounds have been steadily dropping- given the way it's scheduled it's not surprising really.
