2,707 not that many there from Widnes, just that we all stood together, and were quite noisey.

just unfortunate the most of the camera shots were of a very thin smattering in 1 stand, and an empty stand!!

Good turnout that! Rent a fan!  Good follwing from Widnes, around 150 - 180 I'd imagine. Good vocal effort too! Much louder than the home supporters IMO. The benny Black chant was quality, a bit obsessive but funny!

Oy!! Drummer, did you get back to your coach unscathed or did that old Battleaxe who was threatening bother if you didn't stop drumming catch up with you  The crowds response was the funniest thing i've seen at a match in ages.

The drummer is alive and well and lives to drum another day, he did report the 'battleaxe' to the stewards after she violated the drum but they were, shall we say otherwise engaged filing their nails....

There was no way that many there. I thought about 1000-1500 at tops but never iver 2000. If this attendance was correct then 150 widnes fans outsung 2500 halifax fans. Then again its not a challenge singing against YORKSHIRE YORKSHIRE all the time

Seriously  I guessed at around 2,500. The stand behind the sticks was pretty full, and there was a good few hundred in the main stand, maybe even touching a thousand.
