| Come on lets get those MKM stands packed again! tickets are discounted for passholders and we havent been at home for weeks.
While Saints have improved their discipline has been questionable at times this season and the fans on their backs might just make a difference.
That Catalan quarter final in 2016 in the sun was when I really started to beleive that year, and this could be something similar. Grab your mates, your family, your next door neighbour and lets get the place rocking!

| Yes, got my tickets.
Live on the BBC, will be a decent TV figure based on the last round so will look good to have a decent attendance.

Looking to arrange a RL Fans Hull FC get together before the match
I had a PM from some mental geezer called

Then some mention of sharing a patty butty later on ?

| I've got my tickets, courtesy of the son in law to be, even though its on tele I'd expect a good turnout, but probably not as many away fans as usual who may decide to save a few pounds and watch via the BBC.

Yes its strange that the distance from Wigan and St Helens to Hull is much greater than Hull to those places. Our fans will travel wherever, witness the vast numbers at Newcastle yesterday. Its probably the reason RFL like us to be the last match so they have a sizeable crowd right at the end.

Our away support isn't as good as it used to be
These days we just about scrape 300/400 to wigan or saints on a Friday night
Remember 2004 first game of season at saints we took over 2k, in the fog again was big numbers

Since 2004 I dare say its a period in which a lot of things have changed for many people, then there's the point of people having less disposable income currently.
Still very good numbers of fans travel from both Hull clubs and significantly higher when compared across other SL teams travelling to Hull.
I've got my tickets and looking forward to the game regardless. For me it feels a bit like the CC semi against them in 2005, hopefully with the same end result.

This and traffic has got worse also, just getting out of Hull on a Friday after 2pm is a challenge in itself! This season has also been the worst I can remember for lack of weekend away games.

| M62 is a shambles currently, any more than 500 from one side of the Pennines to the other is a solid effort from any side at the moment on a Thursday/Friday IMO. Not expecting us to take many to Leigh, especially been our 5th away game in a row.
Think we should be aiming at 10K+ crowd for Saints in the cup. They will bring a few over, cheaper tickets with no Football on a Saturday afternoon, it should be doable.

| Well big ask to win. IMO we just not at the top table this year. So if we keep putting the effort in like the last 7 matches then I'll be happy. We need fresh blood for next year and am sure Smith is sorting it out. Hopefully 5/6 new faces. Till then let's get behind them and who knows. We are taking Hull FC here lol

I was confident of turning Saints over especially if we had beaten Leigh which given the fact that we gifted them their tries from our errors and indiscipline we should have done.
The problem was plain to see that when we lost Clifford we has no direction and when we did put some pressure on Leigh in their 20 we were clueless.
One man doesnt usually make a team but unfortunately for us Clifford does therefore i cant see us getting anywhere near Saints now and like Leigh they will target our right edge.
See little point of playing McNamara as he is just catch and pass,so i would play Sutcliffe at 6 as he offers a more of a running threat and is a better defender.
Satae back will help in the forwards but this continued use of using four lightweight forwards is killing us a go forward team
Out of Lane and Cator i would play Cator but they are both guily of repeated 6 agains.
Dwyer is a total liability and if we need to carry two nines then surely its time to give Balmforth a run or use Cator off the bench as the second nine and move Lane to 13.
Was really looking forward to this game but a defeat means the season is over and worse still we will have all those red and whites on here gloating if they beat Salford

Ah diddums
You’re welcome to come on to the Hull FC board to discuss and debate as well as having some banter following the AUP. Please try to remember this if you continue to post on the Hull FC board

I’m not sure we can say we are a one man team just yet, granted we missed his skills he went off but who wouldn’t?
Think it’s difficult when you’re set up and trained all week to carry out a game plan but then you lose such a key player particularly when that player is the organiser.
I imagine without him the work in training this will take that in to account and likely Trueman will be the organiser. Let’s see how we go against St’s after they’ve had time to work on a game plan without Clifford.
Agree re Dwyer as he more often than not takes the wrong option or goes the wrong side when we have men over. As he’s leaving and IF Balmforth is staying then I’d like to see TS use Balmforth instead.
