...your crowds so far have been a revelation. Leeds was expected to be a bumper crowd, but the gate for Hull was outstanding. Hull FC have never brought 1,500 anywhere except Caravan Park or Wembley, but even if they did, then 5,250 locals through the doors on a freezing cold day.... a major achievement...long may it continue! 25% + up on last years gate for FC....
Next up at home...the Filthy French.....let's hope you get 5k+ and 2 points.
worth remembering last year against hull was our first home game ever in superleague (to which hull travelled in very impressive in numbers and created a great atmos, 2nd only to the saints game in my mind) so i think the game today was even more impressive.
i reckon we will get 8-9k for saints, wigan at least and if we can hit 5k for teams like wazza, cas etc then i reckon its all good. at the moment the opponents will have an inordinate effect on attendances but if we go well we can create a half decent hard core audience. even if we hit 2k season tickets holders next season we will be well set for a few years.
the catalans game will be a very good indicator of where we will end up this year.
