well you wouldn't hear it over the sound of your drum

My drum? I don't remember buying one :S

Maybe you should miss it. Just sit at home in a darkened room and think about growing up after some of your recent comments both on here and on the HKR Site.

I just don't understand it.

We get the constant theories on here, particularly after the occasional poor league attendances/performances that it's because "the league means nothing" - so surely the cup, and a semi-final no less, is the antithesis to the "meaningless" league, and a sure fire supporter draw?

One of my best memories was the trip to the (then) Galpharm in 2010 for the CC fifth round. We took about 40 coaches, filled our ticket allocation (and then some), and played our part in a 60-4 demolishing of Hudds.

What's changed between then and now? Consistent success. Success brings more fans through the door, but success can also lead to a level of apathy - [iit's only Salford/Broncos at home, it's only a quarter/semi final[/i etc.

The club has run subsidised coaches before, which I saw as a nice gesture. It seems now they're having to run them to simply get a decent turnout.

I don't think Hull will be selling too many more than Wire to be honest. We do have to travel further but we're used to that, however in terms of PR and feel good factor leading up to this game, the negativity is deafening. Most think Gentle would have been sacked after our defeat at Bulls, that can't be good for the coach and his team. Then we have the small factor of both half backs being injured and havent played for weeks and our best player this season just been ruled out for the season (Crooks). Add to that, our 5 league defeats on the trot and I think ticket sales won't be anything like our previous semis either. Don't think the k.o time will put off many from our end to be honest.

Maybe you should stop giving grown men advice like you're a fountain of all knowledge. I simply said that I don't see an issue with a smoke bomb as they cause NO harm. Yes they are banned and I respect that but in MY opinion I don't have an issue.

They way some people are talking about the upcoming game on here you'd think Celtic were Playing Rangers

I'm massively dissapointed by our fans this year. Decreasing attendances at home, and now a Cup Semi Final even seems a bridge too far for some folk.

I think sales will pcik up towards the end of the week....quite a lot of people get paid at the end of the month, so this could be a factor.

Either way, Hull will outnumber us...whether its novelty wearing off or the KO time i dont know, hopefully the revised coach prices might encourage a few....

Il be there, cant wait.

TBH it shouldn't be the price of travel that should attract you guys, £20 for a semi on the side is amazing value. Don't you guys charge £32 on the side stand?

Depends which side
South is £19
North is £27.50

Ends

East £22
West(away) £19

Stand Tickets Pre Match Day Prices Match Day Prices
Seating (Blocks I-Q) Adult £27.50 £29.00

If you want to go in the North on match day yep, but only the South of the river Warrington fans can afford that stand, us commoners North side of the river go in the South

We have enough river gate here so i wont get involved.



It was just to highlight the excellent semi value @ £20

Don't think I am going to bother and for me it is the 6pm kick off.

Really don't fancy driving over to Huddersfield, having to park 3 weeks from the ground and then get home at 10pm and go straight to bed without sitting down and unwinding, that's what Sunday nights are about for me. There is the chance of grief as the drinkers will have been on it from early Sunday, the amount of alcohol consumed has the potential to cause a fair bit of Aggro now on my own not a problem but not with wife and daughter in tow, makes no sense to put them in the middle of that potential.

Far easier to roll into the pub, watch the game and be sat back in my arm chair at 8pm

Piss poor in my humble opinion. It's a Challenge Cup Semi Final - or bust. They don't come around too often, and this successful period we are in will not last forever. Cherish events like this whenever you can.

Well said

Last time we went to Hudds for a CCSF was against Bradford wasnt it mate, Langer, Nikau and TKL era? Few dodg decisions that day.

I also seem to remember a M62 unscheduled stop against an electric fence?!?!

yup, lee briers man of the match award, but on the losing side.

Ganson i think didn't go to the video ref for a nikau try just before half time that would've given us a difficult lead for bradford to claw back....then paul anderson went skittling players in the secondhalf...


oh lee briers clocked james lowes good style off the ball on the side of the head, lowes surprisingly didn't like it.

haha...you are correct. Briers hattrick??!! and that mickey stop had a lvely view of the dam!! haha

also remember it going jonny bonkers at the bar at half time!! Our fans were superb that day!!

I'm guessing anyone complaining about the kick off time will also be missing the superleague final for the same reason if you get there?

I have got my tickets my husband myself & daughter will go & support our team & will not let people who drink to much spoil it for me. Hull or Warrington fans.

Well said Wynez me also going taking my ak 47 just in case

Only if they move it to Sunday

Correct
