Whilst you are pointing out "the facts" (otherwise known as your opinion) please correct your fellow wire fan who made the rather pathetic claim that widnes rarely get over 2,000 fans. It's interesting how people are quite choosy which "facts" they choose to correct.
I think it was a good turn out from both sets of fans for a friendly on a cold winters day. I don't think we will get anywhere near that when Wire come to our place. For a game that probably didn't really apeal to a lot of fans 1700 (which is my estimate) is good. Well done Widnes fans.
Are we saying wire brought more? You had the smallest stand remember and put both sides of Vikings in there would of been full I reckon. Did think crowd looked more the 4,000 Mark!
Yeah we are. The East Stand (where we was located) holds 2500, we probably filled it from what I could see, and if we didnt at the very minimum even if there was 500 seats left free, which their wasn't, thats 2000. Now, I'm no expert at Maths, but thats 2000 minium for us and the attendance was 3700 or close to that, thats 1700 Widnes fans.
I was always sceptical when we were at Hilton Park and you could pay cash on the gate. The place was full the seasons when we won the Premiereship, as it was then and they used to say todays attendance is 3500. When we were in SL the place was half full and they used to say that the attendances were 4, 5 and 6 thousand. Cash turnstyles.
Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”
There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back! Oooh-to… Oooh-to-be… Oooh-to-be-a… WOOLY!

The East Stand holds 1,450. There was plenty of empty seats up each side of the stand and around the front, plus plenty of empty seats here and there amongst the main body of Wire supporters.
In my opinion, there was around 1,700-1,800 in that stand. When you are in amongst it, it seems fuller than it actually is but, from outside looking in, it clearly wasn’t full. It was a great turn out either way, by your fans, and I’m not complaining about it. If it turns out that there was 2,000 Wire fans there, I’d be surprised, but I’m not too sure what difference it would make to anything.

The East Stand opened in 2005, the East Stand means that the Stobart Stadium Halton is finally complete. A fantastic new structure which houses one large concourse bar with fantastic facilities for all.

Who gives a sh*t how many is there for a friendly. If we played at home I'm pretty sure we'd be well below our average. We have some numpty fans.
You're not wrong. The smugness form some of them for beating a part time side with 18% of your salary cap is a bit embarrasing. God help us if you ever win the GF.

Yes, yes, my bad. I wrote 1,450 instaed of 2,450. If you read the rest of my post you'll see I said that there was at least 1,700-1,800 in there. That wouldn't have been possible in a stand which only holds 1, 450.
