| Unfortunately Friday nights are not good for fans who want to travel from Hull. Have you tried driving from Hull to West Yorkshire along the M62 at 6pm? It's a nightmare! It took me 50 mins from Leeds.
Last season Hudd played Hull Fc on a Sunday and the crowd was just over 8000 and there were about 2800 from Hull. This season Friday night live on sky. It was the University freebie game so the crowd was up but there were less than 1500 from Hull.
Last season Hudd played Hull KR on a Sunday and the crowd was 7200 with about 2200 from Hull KR. This season, Friday live on sky and the number from Hull was halved.
Moral of the story, if you play a Hull team on a friday night expect the normal travelling support to be halved.

| Quote: Birkbygiant "I know a few people who couldn't go due to working evenings, but would have gone on Sunday or Saturday.
Thought it was a decent turnout, last weekend in the sun, BBC camera's, Sunday afternoon and 2300 Cas fans and we had less in the home end than last night.
Thought it was a decent turnout.'"
You can add another 1000 onto that number.

Not according to this quote from Wishy and he should know.
[iThe stand holds 4054!! 30 spots are for disabled in wheelchairs which also in the total!! The two front rows netted off thats another 400 seat knocked off the back 4 rows also netted so another 400.So the actual official capacity for that stand is a little over 3200!! Blocks 1 and 6 nowhere near half full each so another 500 and loads of seats empty dotted about elsewhere!! I really wish these fans would not just look from the back of that stand as the front is never full!!
Official total 2281 as of 10 mins before ko!! So where did the other 1k come from?? and where did they sit?? Still a good turn out though!!

| I am buddy we lost a good tight game and at the end of the day just were not good enough to beat you.
Just pulling somebody up on a comment that you guys were a sunday afternoon team when clearly that wasnt the case last week.

but how many fans turn up doesn't affect how the team plays

| Who said it did or didnt. I posted on here because somebody said that you were a sunday afternoon team suggesting that the reason your attendance was so poor last night was because it was played on friday night.
With this i responded by making refferance in a slightly sarcastic way to your poor crowd against us last week which was played on a sunday afternoon.
I was then told that the only reason I had posted this was because my team lost last sunday and i should get over it. So I explained that I was over it.
Hope this helps .

It's a good job KD is a devoted fan!
Wonder how many will be going to Wembley?'"
If you do get there, probably only the 6000 you took to Twickers.

| Quote: Sammy Stripes "Couldn't get to the game of course but thought the crowd was a little low, Hull KR looked to have brought 1300 max
Still, well done all who went, could certainly hear the chanting loud enough
Just shows both how bad estimates are and how pointless it is to go on about how many were there from Rovers when there's been a range of between 1000 to 2000 on this thread.
If any of you lot think 6300 was a good crowd, given the fact that your club have slashed ST prices and with a very good away following (I'd like to see Hudds bring so many to Craven Park EVER, never mind the fact that it was a terrible (Friday) night, 70 miles away and on telly) and after you'd just got through to the CC semi, then you're easily satisfied.
BTW, in future, criticise our away following when you can do better. The whole idea has absolutely no point, credibility or substance when you try to put down something that you're not capable of getting anywhere near achieving yourselves.

If you want to bleat about gates take it on the boards of 8 SL clubs with lower average gates (inc HKR). When you have done that then come back here.
If you lot had won the gate would not be mentioned. If its not slef loving Justin Morgan blaming the ref its fans maning about the gates.
