Or clever marketing by Leeds aimed at local fans who could not or did not want to physically get over to hull, as the event started at 11.30am any fans could have done both are hull only around 75 mins from headingley. One that did not want to could hang around have a few beers and watch it on the screen. Leeds managed to organise that thing in a brewery that the RFL cannot.
Sorry but, I think that is pretty poor form from Leeds, to stage an event which directly clashes with an international fixture, which was bound to have some effect on the attendance at Hull.
Quite frankly, Leeds appear to have put 2 fingers up to the RFL by having their own gig clashing with a major event.
And you then say that The RFL couldnt organise the proverbial p up in a brewery. When one of the 2 major clubs in "Yorkshire" chose their own bash, instead of supporting the wider game, it's no wonder we're heading for the life rafts..
You say that fans could do both but, I wonder just how many actually did.
Club before country eh ??
