Can't see an upset hopefully a close first half and a Bradford win by 16, i'll be happy with that

Most Leigh fans will be happy with a good game which we hold our own,Bradford red hot favourites.

I'm looking forward to visiting Odsal saw many great games there in the 70s and 80s,even saw one of Ellerys first games, unfortunately John Woods was in his prime and we won a good close game.

Ok I'll give you that one

Pity we have to play in a sub standard stadium



Looking forward to having a day out at the big hole,do they still give out binoculars?

Wow. Give em a bit of a ground and they suddenly get cocky! How long have you been out of the sh*thole that was Hilton Park? A year?

In all honesty, I was looking forward to coming to your new ground for the England game this year and seeing what it was like. Unfortunately I then found out the date the England game was on and can't attend! I would have actually preferred this tie to be at Leigh so I could attend the ground (always like attending ones I've not been to before).

I note the


Some great matches against you in the past and look foward to this one, your fans will be warmly welcomed.
IIRC we have never given out binoculars, the only thing we give out is great hospitality and fellowship of RL (unlike some clubs near to you). Your team can expect a cup of tea at half time and a decent meal after, but nothing on the field.
We will need to be on our mettle aganst you lot.

I had expected some Wakefield fans to come on and question that assertion by now.

Game will be on the Friday night with discounted entry compared to a league game. I'd show the link but using my phone rather than the pc

Friday night....BOO
£10 entry....hooray! An excellent move.

seems a strange decision to play it on a friday. Surely will mean a lower gate than a sunday game. The cynical side of me wonders if, given that we have to split gate with leigh after costs we might end up keeping entire gate as stewarding costs could eat up entire gate if crowd is less than 8K. And even more cynically do we have to share money earned through the corporate boxes, which are well know to earn more money on a friday night

Possibly also due to fact we have to go to Wakefield the Friday after?

hadnt noticed that, have to admit I assumed that as we're away to crusaders at edinburgh the week before that the week after cup game would be a home game. Guess we're being classed as the home team at murrayfield.

£39 to watch it in the coral too.

They certainly seem to be offering up the hospitality to the GPublic a great deal.

Looks like the downturn in attendances has hit there too.

13 home
13 away

1 @ Murrayfield - luck of the draw

Think the decision of a Friday game will certainly lower the away fans, I was hoping we would bring a big following but not now, I certainly can't make it

Yes we are classed as home team am murrayfield ,, Really surprised that we aint on T.V for this game !!

Well, he's a good bit older......., sorry more experienced!

Does he qualify as a "veteran" yet then?

We're at home to Widnes on the following Thursday as well so that might have played a part.

Friday night will decimate our away support, but would still expect a few hundred away fans.

Doesn't matter when they play it, it is always going to be a very modest crowd. Paying Cup games just are, only the semi finals get anything like. Agreed it will be a bit worse on Fri than it would have been on Sun but as said with games on Thu (Leigh) and Fri (us) it would make no sense to force such a rapid turnaround.

the crowd would never have been massive but we do have quite a good away follwoing for a championship side! sunday for ourselves would have seen upto a 1000 maybe more come down .....but never mind , i'll still be there



hopefully it hammers down all friday ! so the game is slowed down. that way we should give you half a decent game

If i can book off work Ste i will be there with you.

It's been like that for a few years now though. Funnily enough, just before reading your post, I had been wondering if the 'free' tickets given to season pass holders made any difference to attendances in the last round? I've not seen it mentioned anywhere.
