that was the corperate block, i was sat right next to it and there is a fence surrounding it, was all full of mutuals.

The 2nd tier of the west stand was around 1/3 full and the NW quadrant had nobody at all in it. That said I still think Wire did really well for such a small club. People forget that they only attracting crowds of around 4-5k when they were playing at the zoo. Bless em

never been a big club.. big cheque book- yes...turd club tho....

Very few Yorkies there on Saturday..... had Leeds been playing 5000 'Ull fans would have been there just to support their opponents!



FWIW, I quite liked the empty spaces, made me feel at home being a Salford fan

Given OT is only a stones throw away for the majority of fans in the NW you would think that the huge cost differential would mean more would turn up to the GF (from the two clubs in question) relative to the CC final though. It would be almost as much as the ticket (if not more) to just travel to London, for Wigan/Warrington fans it's comparatively inexpensive.
I think fans are generally being turned off and can't be d as well as having to think about other financial priorities...

Least amount of nuetrals I've seen at a final in a long time.

Hopefully down to the World Cup.

I agree but I had a great seat for the CC at £21 (x 2) and while I had a good view for £30 (x 2) at the GF (despite seating problems mentioned elsewhere) I paid £14 for parking close the ground (my choice so fair enough) compared to a few quid at Stanmore and a tube fair that let me and my son have a nice wander around central London.

It's a valid point, but how many neutrals normally attend a Grand Final? As mentioned above, I doubt it attracts the same level of neutrals that wembley does.

Warrington's poor attendance was to blame, otherwise there'd have been at least 70k there like normal. I was confused as to the poor attendance from them, considering how most considered them favourites and it being only their second appearance.

Poor attendance from Wire.

I wonder if these lads made it to OT....

No it was the second tier stand that was half empty this pic if from a few mins before kickoff note the upper stand, theres was also that corporate area int eh middle of the lower stand aswell

Any excuse to roll this one out

I am almost sure the lad on the right as you look at it was in the Wigan end....behind the sticks in row EE...........

if not him then it was a relation of his with his Wire shirt on, he was all smiles and jumping for joy up until about 52 minutes. Then he sank lower and lower into his seat and disappeared completely with 5 minutes to go
