There's two televised games though.

They'll put Wigan and Leeds on before Bradford.

If the north stand is not usable , will the Shay be able to cope with this match ?

This may be the subject of another Council-driven saga.

Life's never dull round here ..............

I'd have thought so, Might have to be all ticket ect.

Barrow hosted Wigan last year and were able to limit the number of tickets given to Wigan for voucher holders to use. I'd imagine Fax will be able to do something similar, give them the skircoat, and perhaps a block or two of the east

Surely the North stand will be sorted by then? If not why all the messing around?

I thought the work had already been carried out ages ago?

Its a big job. They've sorted the fencing on the right of the East Stand and thats it. (I think)

Or Leigh v Catalan

Hopefully , from our point of view , it's not like we are going to lose any away support is it , possibly might just ignite some of our stay sways out of the pub

Went round Leigh last night in shirt and scarf , had everybody asking how we did , " bloody fantastic " was the reply , it's on Blip TV now if you want a look

I expect this fixture to end up being all-ticket. From our club's point of view I reckon it'll be a logistical nightmare. Another battle with the suits at the Town hall, has the footy season finished by then ? Will the groundsmen be able to cope with one game per week, the mardy ar$ed gits ?

should be no need for all ticket as at moment without north stand capacity is around 7000 +

Does that include the Skircot stand which hasn't been used this season?

Maybe we should move it to Old Crossleyans ?
