The pitch to be fair didnt look that bad against Thatto but i am guessing football will have been played on it since. I think we lost 40-4 to them last year so i would hope we could be a bit more competitive this time but it is hard to see anything other than a big win for them. We really just need a bit of luck to come through it unscaved.

Am not expecting anything less than a 60 point beating

The Panthers Facebook post “ CALLING ALL RUGBY LEAGUE FANS - WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT!” sounds more like another plea for help rather than just trying to get more through the gate to me.

The build up to this game has been shocking and like faxcar says, it feels like panic stations at this point. Sponsorship packages not sold, presuming pre match sales are abysmal with no discount, do people even know there is a game on? What are the club doing to get people through the gates apart from this begging post?

I attend all home games but I have considered not going. £25 to watch us lose to SL team who will bring no support, we won’t have many supporters. No atmosphere. I struggle to see what the attraction of this game is. Also SL have killed off the excitement on the Challenge Cup. It just an ‘also have to play’ competition as they all focus on the grand final as the most important thing to win.
