| It will be interesting to see what the pricing strategy turns out to be.
Will they (a) charge just for the first game and then clear the stadium before admitting and charging people for the second game; or (b) will they charge just one fee to attend both games which will be higher than they would normally charge for just one game (maybe double); or (c) will they charge just the one normal admission fee to cover both games.
If the decision is to go for (b) then that might deter some Fax fans from attending who only want to see our team or are only available timewise to watch the one game. I, for one, would not be particularly keen to have to pay more than normal to watch Fax take on a team of amateurs in what is likely to be a one-sided contest though I will be there supporting Fax whatever (I am one of those who cannot commit timewise to being at both games I have to admit).
We shall see.

This is what the club have to say thus far.

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
