It looks absolutely shocking on the ticket map but hopefully there will be a decent uptake as the week goes on. We've got about 6 or 7 regulars who go and will be going Saturday and none of us have bothered yet. Being able to buy a ticket at the click of a button on your phone/tablet means there is no rush for many. It won't be pretty either way but hopefully it gets up to 9/10k come kick off. 

As you say it doesn’t look great, I would hazard a guess that 4.5k tickets have been sold. We know that the club, and players, hold this competition in the highest regard and consequently I think we should all get behind them as I’m sure we all want another trip to Wembley.

Over 1k sold by Hull for this one, but on the whole, it's going to be an empty looking stadium

This game should have been included in the ST package to compensate for no home game against Warrington, with perhaps all fans seated in the East & South.  It would still not get all ST holders out of their armchairs, but those who would have otherwise stayed away may have spent some money, and created a better atmosphere.


Saturday afternoons at the DW/Brick rarely create an atmosphere anyway, so the passing person would just think the football are at home again.

Not sure how you could include a cup game into the ST when you don't know who/when or where you will be playing any of the rounds, it would have to be an afterthought somehow to add it to the ST, unless that is what you are meaning.
