Just wondered what kind of figure people would put on us taking to Wembley?
Listening to Hudge after the game he said 25/30000. Think that's a little ambitious. I'd be delighted with 12/15000.

There'll be more than 12k I'd thought about 20k, normally 4 of us go, there's 12 going to Wembley. Reckon that'll be pretty much the norm.

Should be a good earner for the club, lot of merchandise sold and not sure what the prize money is.

imo 14k

Re: How many? : Sun Aug 02, 2015 6:00 pm  

re thought, 16k

At least thirty million, if they really think about it, half the country are Hull Kingston Rovers fans, probably more, I'm known for my underestimations.

Two of my sisters are going ones never been (she's taking her 2 sons ) and my other sister went to the final in 86 and the opening game of the new craven park so I guess they will be a lot of that going id say about 20,000

Re: How many? : Sun Aug 02, 2015 6:25 pm  

We're playing Leeds , so 70% of the crowd will be rovers fans

Re: How many? : Sun Aug 02, 2015 7:43 pm  

Considering we took around 7000 yesterday and the fact that a few thousand go from Hull every year anyway inc rovers supporters, plus the magnitude of the occasion, I believe we will certainly take around 20,000 .
I know several people already who only go now and again or haven't been at all for some time who have contacted me to see if I know of anyone doing Wembley trips, problem is I don't even know for certain how the wife and myself are getting there yet, hopefully I will have sorted something out by the end of the week.

There are 3 in my car who will be going to Leigh on Saturday, and the same 3 are going to Wembley, so I reckon we can extrapolate based on the away end at LSV next weekend.

Think Hudgell is correct in his guesstimate, once in a lifetime opportunity I would give my right arm for (Leyther)
