Pre Match entertainment will be

Brian Carney Juggles four cats whilst Phil Clarke plays the spoons and analyses the chances of Carney making it out without a scratch and what the final cat score will be if he actually catches one

Both will be wearing bikini's in the colour of their favourite team, ( blue and yellow then )

Whilst Stevo and Eddie showcase their amazing performing Chickens in a death defying high wire act of steely nerves and skilful balance, dressed as coco the clowns performing and comedy act where they try to keep everyone interested.

The music will be from The john Wells Trio with Nigel Brown on drums, Ganson on base and John Himself on lead guitar and vocals.

As usual, the RFL state that they have gone all out on a great night of excitement and thrills with the latest and greatest in the world of entertainment.
All hail the RFL, saviour of our game

The pre match music is a tribute to the year the clubs were last crowned 'champions', Wigan's will include songs from Lady Gaga, Eminem and The Wanted, Warrington's are Tennessee Ernie Ford, Dickie Valentine and Alma Cogan.

You load sixteen tons and what do you get?

A bad back ?

So come on which reject from last years x factor will it be?

Conquer Rio- another limp keyboard based band the rfl always seem to book, generic turd that tries to make music for the masses and ends up making music that doesn't cater for anyones taste.

Seriously go to youtube and give them a whirl, dross.

Isnt the tory party conference running in Manchester at the moment? Thats pure comedy

You would think they would learn something from the NRL grand final entertainment.

I've heard they've booked Bobby Crush.

Some band that no-one has ever heard of... seriously is this the best they can do?

The 1 time they actually booked a band people knew & liked (Feeder), it was too wet for them to perform!

Ahem, what about Madness?!

If the RFL had the same money to spend then I would agree.

That shall be more time spent at the bar then. Underwhelming would be bigging it up.

early on there was prematch from entertainers we had actually heard of...Steps, Five ( i think), Madness and Leslie garrett (05) Deacon Blue (06), Russell Watson (07), ........then down the slippery slope when the RFL thought we were easily pleased..scouting for girls (wtf) (0icon_cool.gif The wombats indie band (09) Diana vickers (10)

wont we long before they bring back "community hymn singing" (the karoake of the 50s)

we arnt asking for the Rolling Stones, just somebody we have actually heard of

Fair point but is it not supposed to be sky's show piece they should foot the bill, sick of eddie and stevo biggin it up as the biggest thing since sliced bread only for it to be a damp squib.

NRL final have Ricky Martin, tell me again who we have Conker who?

Not sure how you have never heard of Scouting for Girls, The Wombats or Diana Vickers. I'm not saying I like all three (Wombats are alright, can't stand the other two) but they were definitely popular bands

why cant we have Katherine Jenkins???

A damp squib? Because Warrington haven't won it yet?

Warrington can win the pre-match entertainment if you want. We will win the game, is that OK?

I don't recall eddie and stevo 'biggin' up the pre-match entertainment, do you?

Wasn't Great Uncle Bulgaria in them ?
