78,000 and a few

Was awful. Whoever gets the opportunity should definitely pick Wigan at clubcall.

Not as entertaining as our previous 18 victories ..... did you know we've won it 19 times now !!!

Please tell us more- although slightly less exciting than watching paint dry your tale is far more entertaining than that final.

Possibly the worst game of rugby I've ever watche! There was no atmosphere for a cup final, no skill, no tension you wouldn't think it was a cup final, very poor

if we played that bad in a final and won would we care?...like hell we would

Sad thing is the grand final could be just as bad as SL has served up some dire games this season and with few "big" clubs being in form a blow out could be on the cardsat OT.

IF we win it as Wigan did no complaints but after thinking all along getting there is enough after the Final I think us getting there an not performing would be harder to take than going out of the play offs early.

Think we would make a fist of it and on current form be fancied to go all the way but Hull looked to have alot of things going for them and they messed it up lets hope if we get in that position we can show we are made of sterner stuff.

Think the game shows we have nothing to fear from those two. Hulls ball retention was a joke, kicking game a joke, was urging them on to do something as clubs like hull need to be winning something a big club with good support break up the usual suspects!
Wigan well their form is dire, the early season domination of sides has dropped off 9 games four wins. And those wins by a point against Widnes, a last gasp try against wakey and a ref assisted win against hull kr!
Very disappointed at the game only a ten min spell where hull looked lively. Although the props had a good hard battle.

only 1577 more there yesterday than when we went in 2009.

Just goes to show how many of the crowd are neutrals brearley, many fans buy a ticket regardless of if there team is there or not, given the dross that was served up it won't have gained the game any new fans!

I've been to the CC final every year bar 1 since 1998. This year was the first time I really didn't enjoy it. We were in the Hull end as a group of neutrals made up of Huddersfield and Halifax fans. The Hull fans all stood up to sing old faithful, obviously we remained seated. Hull fans the kindly threw about 10 coins at us.
There was a fight between Hull fans a couple of blocks away. The atmosphere was awful. The match was awful. The weather was awful. The weekend was only saved by good company.

I've been to the new Wembley about 4 times and The images I saw of the crowd yesterday with all those empty seats,I can't believe there as many as 78k+ in the stadium.
You are this seasons best team on consistancy and performance.If we don't get to OT I hope do and also win.There I've put the kybosh on it for you

the 78k compares quite well with other years.

but like you say plenty of empty seats, alot are that wembley club season tickets?

or maybe they just gave out the figure on tickets sold.

hull and wigan are two of the best supported teams in RL, just goes to show the financial climate is really hitting people.. or maybe its just rugby league?

Remember SL/Championship each club has to buy an allocation to enter the cup and doubt the likes of Gateshead or Scorpions would have been able to sell every ticket they bought.

Not sure if amateur or Uni teams who enter have to do the same.

I must admit we had a little sweepstake on the attendance. Most people went for the mid 60,000's.
There were nowhere near as many neutrals as usual which could account for the lower number.
