At Hull FC only members (season pass) holders are allowed in, given that fans had no idea what was going to transpire so didn't renew their season membership plus the insanity of 25% capacity rule, the whole hassle of gaining entry into the stadium, muzzle wearing and so on it's not surprising that supporter numbers are going to be a fraction of those from previous seasons.
Wigan had a slump in fans with their foray into the 2nd division with a home game low of just over 4,000 fans, in their return to 1st divison they had 11 home games with fewer than 5,555 fans, lowest was 3.5k for Whitehaven league game, their biggest league home game was 8k for the visit of Leigh. in the CC however they had a huge high of 17k for the Widnes 2nd rnd match, the fact it was only around 6k for the home league game both at CP and Naughton park shows how imporant the CC was back then.
Honestly I'm not surprised, and the reasons given [reviously are valid, fans have fallen out with the sport, gotten out the habit of going and with the way the sport has been going in how its played has been losing fans on that basis as well. Six again and the vague interpretation of that, no scrums all have an influence as a part of the turn off.
I really want to go to the FCv KR game in late August and take my son and mum when we travel up for her birthday, but it's likely that there won't be a game or worse the game is on but medical apartheid for entry.
