Looking at the attendances for the Premiership semi against Warrington and the final at Headingley, the crowd was lower by a few thousand for the final.
Any reason for the very low attendance?
Does seem very low, just 12,100 according to a few resources. I guess in those five/six days between the semi and the final supporters of both clubs were more focused on tickets and arrangements for the Challenge Cup final replay.
