Why is it so empty at the kc tonight?

Theres no huddersfield fans there.

Meaningless regular season fixture.
Hardly anyone really cares about the result.
Both clubs can afford to lose over half their SL fixtures and still qualify for the Top 8.
It's on TV.
It's being played on a Thursday evening.
Huddersfield are not noted for providing a huge away following.
Two sets of fans disillusioned with the game for one reason or another.
Lack of star quality players on show.
Lack of free or discounted tickets on offer.
Clashes with Premier League Darts on Sky Sports 2 which appeals to the same demographic.

William, I bet you have a template reply all ready to go on these occasions with just a few variables to update before you hit "submit".



After reading your post, it's actually positive that there are any fans there at all.

I'm only guilty of being a realist



The game tonight is absolute pants! It's so poor that it's actually amusing. Just needs the Benny Hill theme tune playing in the background to finish things off.

Rugby League in this country exhibited more professional traits during the semi-pro era

I'm sorry, but why is one man being allowed to completely derail the entire VT?

Maybe they just have a more advanced IQ, and can see the substandard competition for what it is.

So do you concede that hull fans will be splitting the atom soon?

The 80's era has gone and will never return.

How will you come to terms with this?

our protest after last weeks reffing worked well, we were going to take 5000 this week, but our fans stayed away over the bentham incident..what were hull fans protesting over lol

Still 9,515, not bad given the Thursday night live on SKY timeslot IMO

plus were in the middle of 6 or 7 home games in 8 matches which will stretch non-passholders finances

Pah! We'll get more next Thursday

Hull FC have easily the worst support in SL.

No mention of 'You'll never win at Wembley'? Your trolling standards are dropping.

The majority of super league clubs would love our low crowds.

Our fans do not travel well at anytime but given the fact that:

1) it's on TV
2) It's an away match
3) its on Telly
4) it isn't at home

meant there were never going to be more than a handful of us there, God knows what the Hulls fans found to do though.

He answered the OP's question. You not liking his answer is not derailment!

how is nearly 10k on a thursday night considered a bad crowd?

Probably, although this season already you've had your lowest SL crowd for a Bradord game and second lowest crowd for SL games against Cas and Wakefield.

Easy when you're from the attendance powerhouses of east hull and uddersfield

1500 down on last season for a Thursday night game probably isn't too bad.
It's the price we have to pay for being in bed with a TV broadcaster.

How many Hudds fans were there (compared to last season) ?

Completely missed the joke did you?
Or was it just your usual feet first response?

Probably about 100, I'm not sure what they brought last year.

I think more than the Thursday night thing people have been put off by some recent poor results and the fact we we are in a big run of home games. If you're not a season pass holder then you're probably struggling to afford to go every week, and even if you can afford you still aren't going to bother paying every week if the team aren't performing.

If we played like last night every week and were sat in the top 2 then we would still get 11k+ regardless of what night it is played.

There was a relatively minor fluctuation in attendance?

You alert the papers, ill prepare the bat signal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would agree, i would imagine crowds will be down a touch on all these Thursday night games compared to last years equivalent fixtures over the weekend.
