hull end was plenty full even on the top tier, club wembley as usual a farce and a lot of empty seats at the warrington end (top tier)
Guardian said we took 30k, there were more Hull fans than that IMHO

Club Wembley lets this fixture down. They wouldn't know a decent sport if it smacked them in the faced.

From the attendance figure I saw it was the lowest at new Wembley by a couple hundred. Doesn't really matter though does it.

Poor turnout from wire and you just don't get the numbers of neutrals you used to at the game these days. Great turnout from Hull though, 25k minimum

Club Wembley and fewer neutrals than in past years. The latte is understandable given how tight finances have been squeezed in the last 8 years. They ought to remove the CC Final from the Club Wembley package so those seats are available though.

Plenty of club wembley seats available but they're expensive because it's a hospitality package. Removing teh CC from the club wembley free games wouldn't change it

Now we've got rid of this hoodoo, I might start the "Back to Cardiff" campaign. Simply better in every way imo

I think they are removing it. Was speaking to a local lad on the tube who has a club Wembley ticket through his dad. He said the only games they are guaranteed to go to are if Arsenal are playing, or its the CC final. It's up for renewal next year though and I'm pretty sure he said it wasn't going to be included in the new packages so they were undecided as to whether they would renew or not. Great guy, very knowledgeable and used to play for London's academy. Didn't catch his name, but helped us get back to Watford!

Whilst I was a bit disappointed with our (Wire) turnout in terms of numbers, there were or seemed to be fewer neutrals than I recall from recent visits particularly Saints and Wigan.

I'm not blaming them or saying that it's up to the neutral to fill the ground, but the fixture has always prided itself on being a game for all although it appears that times may be changing as far as this showpiece is concerned? Also you guys have always brought plenty in previous years as neutrals hope you remember that next year now you've got the Wembley monkey off your back ha ha

I was in the Warringtonend and as plenty neutrals around Sts ,Featherstone, Chris Cester ,Dobbins loads with Aussie shirts on too.
I know in the day people booked who ever was there but money is tighter now and look at the prices in and around the Stadium.
Cardiff every time

The RL needs to look at dropping the prices then maybe more neutrals would go

All men are created equal, some work harder in preseason. -[i:1c45x4hd]Emmitt Smith[/i:1c45x4hd]:



I thought there were less super league neutrals than I've seen before, but still saw plenty of shirts from the championships. Would guess it's a bigger day out for the latter and maybe the SL fans decide against it due to the rising cost of a trip to London.

I think it needs to be moved to June or July, as it disrupts the Super8s (cant see either our or Warrington's games next week being good given the effort yesterday) and there is a whole host of other events on August Bank Holiday weekend, from Premier League football to Leeds and Creamfields festivals etc that distracts neutral fans from going.

Although yesterday was a fantastic day for obvious reasons and a great game, i thought the atmosphere was pretty flat for 60mins and thats largely due to so many empty seats.
