The Black and Whites will have a comfortable five-figure attendance for their first game of 2023.
Hull FC have extended the deadline for their members double ticket offer until 4pm this Monday afternoon with the Black and Whites kicking off their Super League season on Sunday week.
Current members can purchase two extra tickets for £10 with the club expecting a big crowd for Tony Smith’s first competitive match in charge. After a tough couple of years, there is a feel-good factor around Hull again with fans in an upbeat mood for the start of the season as the new era gets underway against Lee Radford’s Castleford Tigers.
A bumper crowd is expected for the fixture, with at least 12,000 fans in attendance. Hull announced 7,500 members last week with a strong following also expected from West Yorkshire.
