Fantastic news. Whatever grumbles people have about this world cup, selling out a RL match that involves Ireland, in a town where we tend to struggle to get big crowds, is a huge achievement.

I really hope this tournament can emulate (and improve on) the 1995 one. I remember going to see England play Fiji at Central Park and it was packed. At the time I went to a school that was very much RU/Cricket orientated, but I remember there being a real buzz about RL around the place during that month. Hopefully we'll get something like that rather than the disaster of 2000.

Should add a boost to the Hull game and the one at LP.

If you want to see an international on the same day you will have to go to LP and watch the Aussies.

If you want to catch England then Hull is the easiest place to get to for the Northerners.

is not opening 2 tiers and sell the rest of the tickets classed as a sellout? or is it an actual sell out?

The full stadium has been open for some time. Our tickets are in Tier 2.

Great news for RL and the world cup

Re: Huddersfield sell-out : Fri Oct 18, 2013 10:12 pm  

It's an interesting one. It's the one game I've stayed well away from as it just has no appeal at all. Surely it's a 40 point dead rubber from the kick off? Or am I doing Ireland an injustice?

How about England fans doing their bit Saddened???

This world cup is showing a whole host of people who like to watch RL and are not just assessing which games are of the theoretical quality for them to be bothered to turn up.

You know fans!
