Quote: Mild mannered Janitor "2008 - Semi v Wakey, allocation was in our favour - still could have sold more (over 8k)

2016 - Semi V Wigan, Friday night game, we take just under 9k to the game

2017 - with a bit of success last season, a Saturday afternoon kick off.. I reckon we could shift about 12k in tickets for this. Given that Leeds have a bigger fan base than us and that the game was always going to be in West Yorks, they could shift a minimum of 10k.

The venue is inappropriate!'"


I don't see 12k, only 9k home fans for home cup game with Cas, doubt that many with travel to the semi, particularly in main holiday season and cost of travel on top.

8k tops, I'd would have had it at Hudds though, just for better transport, pubs and to guarantee everyone gets in, think we could have got a 18k crowd at Hudds

Do you remember 2013 and one completely empty stand plus an empty upper tier?

Quote: ComeOnYouUll "I guess the club have just assumed most members would want to be in the North Stand.

It wouldn't surprise me if there were still tickets available next week for that stand never mind the West Stand. If people want to waste their time queuing overnight on Friday or getting there at 5am fair enough. I think we only sold something like 7k for last season's semi.'"


It was about 8000 as we sold all ours and then got done if Wigans.

I don't think there were 3500 wigan fans there that night

I think the RFL should consider scapping the neutral venue for semi finals of challenge cup and just give the teams out of the bag 1st and 3rd the home draws?,I know it's traditional but the semis of the grand final playoffs are at the the teams home grounds and with fewer cup games for the teams in the top 8 to have to play to reach a semi final I think it's passed it purpose!

Or I thought go completely the other way and have a double header at say Coventry liverpool or Newcastle or maybe scrap the magic weekend and have all the cup quarter finals (four games) over a weekend at the same venue ,trouble being finding a venue to accommodate so near to start of football season?

Quote: Jake the Peg "ridiculous to allow members 2 tickets each'"

Completely agree we have two passes but don't need four tickets for the semi only the two ,can see a load of pass holders getting tickets for their mates who rarely go and passholders who commit to buying a pass every season missing out doesn't make sense ?

Quote: R.B.A "Sorted our tickets earlier. Hull have set aside 40 (I think) tickets for each West Hull junior team. The boys will be mascots, flag bearers etc on the day.
Will be a good 500 there in green and gold if all teams take their full allocation. Looking forward to it. Think it will be a classic.'"

You recently described Hull FC as the most boring team in Super League. Presumably by classic you mean as in a 50-0 drubbing by Leeds or some such.

I agree Passholders should be given first chance to buy tickets but everyone's panicking but they will all get a ticket in the end, just the clubs done it the wrong way round.

Quote: ComeOnYouUll "Do you remember 2013 and one completely empty stand plus an empty upper tier?'"


Yes, I remember 2013, and I would estimate around 6000 hull fans there that day, during a time we had been very poor for a few seasons. I also remember 2005, when we took 10000 to the same stadium.

There seems to be an obsession some have with "it doesnt look good on TV". Quite frankly I doubt there are that many who tune in who are not familiar with RL anyway, so who exactly does it look bad to?

Denying potential thousands of fans who could realistically go the chance is far more damaging to the sport.

FFS,

KC to Keepmoat, what, about 50 minutes? It can take longer than that to get from Hessle to Hedon

You try being a football fan - they don't moan about travelling less than an hour to a game.

Here in the reason why RL in general struggles.
