Considering how many Saints fans went to widnes on Sat, you might just fill the Whitebank up at 1502

[quote='Fishsta"']I've always thought of McGuire as a good player, and I wouldn't normally wish injury on any player, but there was a certain hint of poetic justice to that.
[/quote]
Another classic:
[quote='Fishsta']You forgot to take off the "Saints Reduction Factor" when calculating the ban.
Standard suspension / Saints Reduction Factor = Actual ban for Saints player.
Therefore (2 / 3) = 0.666
0.666 < 1 therefore actual ban equals "less than 1 match".
Therefore ZERO.[/quote]

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

A bit of a pain that.
Wigan v Saints U18 is currently scheduled for a 6:30 p.m. kick off the same night. I hope they change it. |

Excellent. Hopefully Saints fans will turn out in decent numbers to maximise the pay day for Oldham |

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

It's a bit of a shame for the romance of the cup to have the game at LP. But in the end business is business. I'm sure Oldham will only move if they can get more money out of this. Probably a deal which ensures them the profits that they would have got at home and then some share of the profits ontop of that at LP.

Bang on again I see.

Will Oldham make a penny from this though? If the 3 thousand you would expect turn up for the game, at the reduced £12 ticket price, that's a maximum gate of £36,000. Take a quarter of that off for concessions and you are not left with much to cover overheads like staffing, electricity, water and policing.

I read somewhere that the rules had changed this season. A small percentage goes to the RFL, a slightly bigger percentage goes to the host club and then the rest is divided equally between the two clubs playing, I think to the tune of 40% each, something like that. I don't know how true that change is but if it is true then Oldham will get 40% of what will probably be a bigger turnout than would have been the case at the Whitebank Stadium, which only holds 1500. They won't have to fund the overheads either (except the free buses).
I don't think we will need police somehow!
Given that a condition of Oldham playing at Whitebank was that they were not allowed to have a Superleague team play there, playing at Langtree is more cost effective than renting some drafty place nobody wants to go to. |
