Just had a look on the Leigh site, there's a few on there who fancy their chances in the 5th round. They seem to think mr millward will run tactical rings around mr macnamara. Think the bulls squad would be very dissappionted to let an opportunity to progress to the next round pass them by.

We're at home to Widnes on the following Thursday as well so that might have played a part.

Friday night will decimate our away support, but would still expect a few hundred away fans.

Doesn't matter when they play it, it is always going to be a very modest crowd. Paying Cup games just are, only the semi finals get anything like. Agreed it will be a bit worse on Fri than it would have been on Sun but as said with games on Thu (Leigh) and Fri (us) it would make no sense to force such a rapid turnaround.

the crowd would never have been massive but we do have quite a good away follwoing for a championship side! sunday for ourselves would have seen upto a 1000 maybe more come down .....but never mind , i'll still be there

hopefully it hammers down all friday ! so the game is slowed down. that way we should give you half a decent game

It's been like that for a few years now though. Funnily enough, just before reading your post, I had been wondering if the 'free' tickets given to season pass holders made any difference to attendances in the last round? I've not seen it mentioned anywhere.
