| 14,526 for Hull/Leeds with Hull fans outnumbering Leeds fans by half as any again at least.
salford/Wigan saw a pitiful 10,796, with neither clubs' fans having to travel further than 20miles.
Time for double headers at the one stadia with advantage going to team whose fans bother to get up for the cc

| By your reckoning Man Utd and Man City are the best teams and should replace Wigan and Hull at Wembley: instead of playing RL, we count those going through the turnstiles. Would save on paying players' wages.
Sorry but I do not follow your argument at all. Certainly where I was stood, it was packed.

Was yours a sell out? Double header might be a good idea, the only issue being that the BBC like to televise over 2 days, can't see them wanting 4 hours of RL in one go.

| When Hull get 10k + average and Leeds get 14k + average, I would hope that 14.5k for a semi would be the least they would get. As of Wigan & Salford, I think Wigan fans should be ashamed. Salford took more than their home average attendance so why only a few thousand from Wigan?

It was similar last year when we played Wigan in Doncaster, their fans didn't bother turning up for that.
Hopefully they'll make the effort to go to the final, otherwise the rfl will have more ammo to move it.

| Our fans are notoriously bad for attending semi finals, probably because they're hardly a novelty to us so people will just wait for the final. One other theory I have is that we have a much larger elderly following, where I sit about 80% of the fans are probably 65+!

So they get tickets even cheaper, there's no excuse because there's a few oldies. Last year there were barely 2.5k Wigan fans, okay it was the other side of the pennines I'll grant you but this time around it was on your doorstep virtually. Are your fans really not that bothered to travel just an extra 15-25 minutes when the ticket prices are about the same as a normal league game? I mean they travel to St.helens in numbers which is further than Warrington.
