Was a rumour going around last Friday that we (Wigan) had only sold 800 - 1000 . Pretty poor if correct . A mail shot was sent out to Wigan fans to boost numbers .

See you Friday night ,

Friday night game hasnt helped with the travel for Wigan, the M62 is bad on a friday night, but its very poor how badly Challenge Cup semi finals are attended these days, this game should be a good 20k+ with the fanbases Hull and Wigan have. Instead the games seem to get smaller every year in smaller grounds.

If the rumour of 800-1000 is accurate then that is truly embarrassing. I remember Hull taking 2500 to Knowsley Road a few years back (the game with the fog) - on a Friday night and that was a league game

Oh bloody hell, pointless going. Can't believe that wasn't called off. We won tho

One of the best atmospheres i have been in at an away game!

"What the f*** is going on"
"We can't see a f***ing thing!"

I remember my mate saying that he was at the scoreboard end and he heard a huge roar from the Hull fans, and then Tom Briscoe emerged out of the fog scoring a full length of the field try!

i remember the fog just hung over knowlsey road and st helens that night, clear all the way over the m62 until the turnoff onto st helens way

Sfunny when venue announced lots on herder wanted a bigger venue, believing Keepmoat would not be big enough.

The fog game at Knowsley Rd was a Saturday tea time game.

That said, in 2006 we took a right mob with us there in the 27-26 Cooke drop goal game and that was a Thursday night game.

It wasn't, it was a Friday night game, first game of the season on SKY

WE CANT SEE A F***ING THING
