What's the capacity at Fev these days?
I hope we can beat the number of fans we took to York if Fev provide sufficient tickets.
I think it's listed at just under 7,000. I think being a sell-out might be a little out of reach as the Challenge Cup these days doesn't quite have the cachet it used to do for a lot of fans and we (Fev) might struggle a bit in terms of attendances with the deflation still felt from last season's play-offs/the IMG system as well as the cost-of-living crisis probably set to impact our attendances this year.
But I'm sure plenty will turn out from both clubs and it should be a cracking atmosphere. If we get 4k in the ground the place is usually bouncing, especially if a healthy contingent are from the visiting club, 5k even more so.
We usually segregate to some degree or other when we have well-supported visitors so Wakefield fans can expect to get the two new all-seater stands (the Ward Hygiene stand, which runs parallel to the tryline at the railway end of the stadium, and the smaller stand that sits in the corner at a 90 degree angle to that stand), if Wakefield need more tickets than that I'd imagine you'll get part of the stand that is opposite the main stand.
