I really do hope that the sorry North Stand situation gets sorted for this game.

I had heard that work had already started on bringing it to the safety standards needed. Not sure how much of it has been completed.

I don't think their season ticket holders will get free passes for this game, and we will get 30% capacity allocated

- 4.5k, if they have all their stands open and a capacity of around 14k

- 2k if they only have a capacity of 7k (H&S have been very unfriendly at the Shay of late I understand).

Anyone else who wants one then will presumably have to buy them from Fax, despite potentially having a voucher entitling them to a free one? Hmm...

Thought the "free 4th round cc tickets" came from RL to all clubs to try and attract fans to the matches?

If so RL HQ problem

Anyone who wants a ticket and is on their toes will get one, we'll take plenty but it wont be a sellout, this is the CC ffs, you don't get sellouts, the majority of season ticket holders won't want one

The scramble will be for the free tickets.

The quarter final in 2000 sold out

How many bulls fans you expecting to travel to the mighty fax.

Fax 34
Bulls 20

Well we have got 11,000 season ticket holders, which are entitled to a 4th round CC free ticket, it depends how much you give us to be fair and no doubt we will fill what ever that is

Today's League Express is saying its going to be the TV game on the Sunday

At least that makes it better for the 8000 season ticket holders who won't get a ticket

Didn't we have this exact same discussion last year when we drew Dewsbury?

I know we have more season ticket holders now, but it's exactly the same situation. We will get an allocation from Fax (which I'm sure I heard has to be at least 30%) and it'll be a first come first served situation. If you don't get your free ticket from that first allocation, you could be in a situation of "tough sh*t". If Fax however look like they're not going to sell all of their part, they could then allocate some more. Simples.

just got off the phone to the ticket office, they don't know any details yet and when they know more, the information will be published to the website (probably a p*ss off, it's Monday morning and the draw was yesterday response).

Or maybe they don't know any details and the information will be published when they do know....

...I find it annoying how harsh people are on the guys in the shop and ticket office.

i wasn't being harsh, the club were very nice and told me they didn't have any details. to be fair it was what I expected on the day after the draw.

Just looking at the draw it seems to be the most attractive fixture. It's a derby match and just might provide an upset. The TV people like that sort of thing. So for those not able to get a ticket, at least it should be on the telly.

I suspect Leeds v Crusaders will be the other televised game.
