Wonder how much ticket prices were

Only rated hulls support in the lower divisions, when up with the big boys they are small fry. They were getting 15,000 when leading the championship. Having said that, it can't be great watching them right now but isn't it a semi final? How many? Very very poor.

Awful support for a cup semi final.

United normally give away fans 9-10,000 tickets for cup games.

Our support is poor at the moment, but even we'd take more than that.

We went to Old Trafford on a Tuesday night and sold our away allocation and it was a 400 mile round trip,they are about only 60 miles away.

For a semi final it's absolutely appalling! We would take huge numbers for that as its a floaters dream!

I agree with what you've said about their turn out, but it's not far off double that distance.

They are in the thick of it like we were really, bet they feel no connection anymore like we did. It's a rugby city though isn't it? The % of our support from Cardiff must be less than 5% of the population, prob more like 2 or 3 which is shocking really as it's not a rugby city at all. It's almost like people from Cardiff don't even know games are on and wouldn't even think of going.
Too cosmopolitan for our own good...... :roll:
