Its confirmed as Bolton again for a double header. At this stage both us and rovers could both be in the semi meaning us being dragged right across the other side of the country just because Wigan, wire and saints fans wont go more than 20 minutes from home.

At least the games are on the Saturday (27th) so some recovery time before work on the Monday.
We have to make it first.

jake is spot on with that.cant have wigan and saints travelling far.even this years magic was nice and near for them.

Bolton had the ground closed due to HMRC/Health and Safety issues 3 months ago, and went into administration last week. Good choice!

Warrington to Bolton - 21 miles
Saints - 26 miles
Halifax - 37 miles
Bradford - 42
Wakey - 52
Hull - 103
Catalans - it doesn't really matter.

Surely Huddersfield is a fairer choice

Jakes right Frankie, it’s designed this way, fairness towards Hull teams, is a sentence I’ve never encountered.

They'll want somewhere nearer the 30k capacity as it's a double header (triple header with the ladies game first). Should we beat Catalans and you beat Warrington, the John Smiths wouldn't be big enough for both games.

Bolton only holds 4,000 more and I’d be surprised no matter who makes it if there where more than 20,000 there the ladies game is irrelevant

You’ll get desphericalised, with them words Frank.

Obviously this is all hypothetical until around 9.30 tonight for us but the thought of a double header and four sets of fans on the on a warm summer day in one stadium does not fill me with joy given some of the things I saw at Anfield.

I agree but thats using common sense

Warrington sold a massive 200 tickets for their game tomorrow night according to their message boars

Drinking Alcohol should be banned in all Sports Stadiums.Its the major cause of trouble.
Smoking has been banned and its about time alcohol was too.
If you want to drink then do it before the game but stewards should refuse entry to anyone who is obviously drunk or carrying alcohol.
Its pathetic that some people cant go to an eighty minute R/L game without having a pint of beer in their hands.
To some the drink is more important than than the game.

they drink a lot of booze at nrl stadiums with no trouble.

It's the British disease of binge drinking and not knowing when to stop.

instead of banning booze to the majority who drink sensibly,catch the minority offenders and jail them for a couple of years.

If you go to the cricket, no matter if it's T20, one day or test matches people drink all day with no problems either.

Correct, and it’s evidenced on this very forum at times. There was a poster on here who quoted 6 pubs they were going in before the Derby on good Friday and that was a 12.45 kick off. Too many glorify getting smashed.

Bolton will have been picked months ago. It only becomes an issue if either Hull club make it there. If they picked Elland road every other year would that appease? I am happy if they pick Bolton every year IF they’d subsidised travel for the teams furthest away

Get it back to Donny

It'll be a lot further to Wembley

Just hope the FC fans I sit near to at Bolton are better behaved than the ones I sat next to at Donny in 2017.
Turned up drunk and then proceeded to instigate fights with Leeds fans in the corporate boxes.
Don’t know why any rugby event is just an excuse to drink to excess, and behave like an idiot for some

Unfortunately they know supporters of the Hull clubs will travel in numbers no matter where the game is played, and take it for granted.
Who remembers the pitiful following Wigan brought to Donny in 2016?

Well our allocation will be less than our number of pass holders but probably not by many and it's peak school holidays time so plenty won't be able to make it.
