I can't see why there'd need to be such a gap between the two games (almost 2 hours at least if those 12pm/3.30 are adhered to).
That in itself would discourage people staying IMHO. We used to run Academy matches at 12.30 kick off as curtain raisers to first team games which kicked off at 3pm.
There was still plenty of time for pre-match 'entertainment'.
I'd come to both if there was something to keep me occupied between matches. Not if there was going to be a two hour gap.
By the way, those people who think Siddal will lose money by not taking the game to the Hobart aren't factoring in what it would cost to play the game there. Quite a sum I believe.

How on earth did a Halifax club wrestle the Championship trophy from the ever so competent Widnes Vikings?

A - E! Especially B, I hear the club coach certainly wasn't upto scratch as the on board cooler didn't get the water to the temperature the players really desired.

That was 2 years ago FFS. Since then Blacky has appeared in 2 Grand Finals and kicked a drop goal to make his team champions. Apart from losing a final to a team that didn't even make the play offs exactly what have you had to cheer about since
NOTHING - Which is why you are clinging to a knock on 2 years ago you sad sap

So he's got the same record as Widnes? 2 finals one win, one loss?
On the final point I'll tell you in 36 days

| That knock-on allowed them to apply for Super League. O'Connor must have Benny's portrait above his fireplace cos none of his own players are worthy that's for sure.

| Latest twist.
Council say ground must be emptied between games. Siddal kick off 11.30, Fax kick off 5.30.
They're having a laugh. Will lose a lot of revenue from bars and food stalls. How many are gonna pay twice to come in?

| That in effect means it isn't a double header Think I'm meant to be in Lancaster for the weekend so not looking good, especially for a 12 KO. I know in effect it's your ground but switching the games around would of brought more fans in.
If they do insist the ground must be empty can't see a big turn out from our end whatsoever as tbf the added bonus of watching another game at least for a bit was an added bonus. The rest defeats the point of the move IMO.

| I remember last years ties only had an entry fee of £10, so as an incentive to to turn up for the both games, any Siddal/neutral/fax supporters who turn up in the morning could pay £15 on the gate which would also provide them with a Fax Ticket for the early evening game, £10 if no fax ticket.
The stewards/gatemen will need to be out of bed early. Will be a long day for them.

| Stupid wouldn't cover that scenario! Quick glance at trains, only one would get you there before 11:30 and that's a ten past. Can't say taking public transport out of the equation is a good start!

| What's the point? Thanks for building the stadium CC but you don't half make some daft decisions.
For stadium management - i wish we had a council like Castleford's. They allow the Tigers to get away with murder with that rickety old stadium.
So, it's two single headers. I suppose i could watch Siddal ease past the Mutants - nip home to me mam and dad's for some tea and scones, watch an episode of Columbo and then mosey on down to watch the Champions.

| It wouldnt be in Siddals favour to play at Widnes because as somebody mentioned earlier, Siddal would have to pay the ground rent for the Stobart, about £4/5000.

It appears the club are losing the dining facilities for this now. Well done Calderdale Clowncill !!
If this is the case then siddal would be better off financially going over to widnes as there will be very little in the way of support.
Also this is just silly, People will be wanting to go to both games and obviously beer will be flowing, All day sessions for some people me thinks and you know what happens when emotions and beer mix.

| Maybe we shouldn't have been so insistent on Siddal playing at the Shay as well. They've clearly had some sort of rethink & are punishing us for it.

GRAND FINALS my friend. Proper ones
Feel free to dream.
As for being promoted from mid table, well you must be very proud. However pride comes before a fall as they say.
From what I am hearing the next Super League sponsors (potentially) are being quite insistent that they have final say on who is included and who isn't...............and it ain't you lot!
