Quote: mallyjnr "lets be honest about it. there is only hull and rovers that travel in any numbers, yer leeds, bradford and wigan say they take big numbers away, but only when it's at the bottom of their garden. eg less than 10 miles away. when it comes to traveling more than 50 miles all other teams are a joke.'"

Mmmmmm...
Wigan 8,000, Saints 6,000, HKR, 4500, FC 3,800 are the published gates for Quins last season. Leeds have traditionally been big games, but Sky put the dampers on that last 2 years.
The year before, FC 3,500, HKF 3,275, Wigan 5,650 Saints 4,450..... Leeds Bradford and Warrington all show bigger gates that the 2 hull teams as well that year..........so I would say that Wigan and Saints bring the most, given that we are slightly further away than the bottom of their gardens.
Sorry if the facts get in the way, but that's what they are...facts icon_wink.gif

By the way, the little bunch of nutters from Quins who attend our away games will rack up 9,000 miles this year (excluding the play-offs and Grand final v HKR icon_cool.gif )....

Those attendance figures don't really prove anything tbh. For example our gate against Wigan the other week will probably be one of our best this season, however Wigan only brought around 600-700. All sorts of factors affect attendances (not just away support) i.e. - The teams form, the day/time, neutrals may turn out to see the bigger teams, etc.

And fwiw FC always bring a respectable following over to London, I remember when you played at Brisbane Rd and we would take 2000+ everytime we played there. The poster who started this thread is basically saying that Hull n Rovers are the only teams that travel in numbers to ALL grounds, not just ones 'up the road'. I don't particulary agree with that because imo Wigan fans (usually) travel very well also, as do Saints, Leeds, most of the time. From experience though, the only team that bring more to the KC than we take to their ground would be Wigan - and this year I imagine even that won't be true. You can ask fans of most teams and I'm certain they will all say Hull (and Rovers) bring a good crowd (no matter how much they don't want to admit it).

So there you go, rant over.

Wasn't having a go, I was just pointing out that Wigan, Stains and usually Leeds attract a bigger crowd to The Stoop.
HKR brought a good load down last year and FC are always a well supported club, but if you look at the averages over the last 2 years, Wigan appear to be the "biggest" draw at most grounds.
Last year, they attracted bigger crowds at Bradford, Hudds, Leeds, Wakey (hkr brought more), Warrington, Catalans and Quins......

Quote: tonylRobin "you didnt sell them all though, as you said you sent 300 back.
yes its a poor stand but so what, a die hard fan would still be in there giving it some.'"
Because they want to be able to see what is going on? Perhaps!

All this die hard rubbish annoys me - fans will go to which games they want to/can get to for whatever reason. Most of us would love to get to every home and away game but very few people are in the position to be able to do that for whatever reason.

I would expect this season for the amount of travelling support from every club to decrease because a lot of people aren't going to have the same level of available money with things as they are at the moment and unfortunately when money is tight "luxuries" such as away games will be the first thing to go for most people.

At the end of the day though any away fans in a bonus and clubs need to be focusing on getting home fans in as these are the people who will (hopefully) come back week in week out throughout the season.

I thought they were North Stand tickets that were returned to our shop, the North Stand is as close to the pitch as your South Stand, plus it has seats.

I think they are fantastic. Whenever they have turned up at KR I've always wanted to give them some applause because they seem to get everywhere and are so committed. So I'll just give them some applause here, if you don't mind. eusa_clap.gif eusa_clap.gif eusa_clap.gif

(And I aint patronising or anything. I think they are a wonderful group of fans. I feel the same about the even smaller bunch of nutters who travel all the way from France!)

Utter garbage, maybe you should visit and see for yourself.

Sorry if already mentioned but Bulls chairman Peter Hood congratulates HKR fans in this weeks League Express for their away support at Odsal the other weekend.He says they brought 2500 and were absolutelty excellent.He reckons Rovers sold 1000 tickets and had a walk up of 1500(don't know how he can gauge this,probably bumming up the home crowd) and apart from paying admission they ate lots of pies and drank lots of beer he adds.I wish more clubs would emulate that he says.Perhaps his own club will emulate it when they visit Craven Park.

Must admit the Hull clubs away support is by far the biggest travelers to BV with Wigan & Leeds next up.
As for Wakey we are getting a lot better with our away following

Very impressed with your following at Cardiff last year. Less impressive has been your support at CP last 2 seasons.
