Wigan V Stains - Combined Attendance For Both Fixtures = Over 40k

Leeds V Bratfut - Combined Attendance For Both Fixtures = Circa 35k

Hull V Hull KR - Combined Attendance For Both Fixtures = 32k

(Wigan V Wire - 31-32k / Stains V Wire - 30k)

So we CLEARLY are the biggest derby in RL......you and dull are a distant third and only just edge Wigan or Stains V Wire!!!

13,500 + 19,958 = 40,000

Yep can see how that goes.

Last yr was 17,500 + 20,000 actually = 37,500k

Yr before was 24k + 17 = Over 40k

Lasy year was slightly down on the previous as KR had the GF game.

The Dull derby meanwhile doesnt even get anywhere near the Wigan Stains attendance....even on a bad season!

That's because Saints and Wigan are playing each other and they are separate towns.
