From the sky coverage, one of those two has been replaced by a temporary stand. Not sure what capacity is currently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So according to that the away blocks were black and the home blocks red????? Shouldn't that be the other way round, it looks like KR had 75% of the gorund, granted they did in the 2nd half but surely whoever created that graphic must've realised.

I assume they were using a Green, Amber, Red scale for availability. Black to block out the KR sections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M j M Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 This is the availability for the Leeds-Huddersfield game, medium or low in all areas. Probably looking at similar to the Catalan game, around 14k, perhaps a bit less with fewer away fans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RL isn't that big in Huddersfield and its immediate environs. 3. The RL support that is there is split across multiple clubs (as often the comparison is made with HTAFC who draw from across Kirklees and Calderdale).
