I don't mean to sound boring but the team with the biggest following at Home, in the interests of bringing the most cash into the club,
KR would probably mean a loss, so Halifax at home would get a good turn out?
Then Leeds at home next round..

I don't think you would beat Fax TBH.

Haydock or University of Gloucester at home please.

We don't make any money from gate receipts anyway, so no point in getting a "big" club really is there?

Am I right in thinking cup gate receipts are split 50/50?

If so, then the best financial plan would surely be a winnable away game where we can take lots of fans. I'd like to think the time has reach the stage where we could expect to beat Keighley or Hunslet, for example. (Yes, I know Keighley edged us in the friendly but we are much, much more settled now)

And then hopefully someone like Leeds or Castleford away in the next round

I actually wants St Helen's in the next round (making a large assumption). Getting thraped by St's in the Challenge cup is something I never thought I'd feel nostalgia for..... but.....

In other words, Toronto at home

Toronto play 'home' cup games at the other teams ground

Frankly, a home draw isn't what we need. A home game means we have to open Odsal and that costs a LOT of money, which would probably be barely covered by the pitiful crowds that tend to be attracted by cup games. Especially when we have to give half of our gate receipts to the other team.

So the [ilast[/i thing we need is a home tie against Gloucester All Golds, as it will only benefit them. What we really need is somewhere like Hunslet or Keighley away - where the other lot have all the outlay, we take a load of support and we get 50% of the gate

#win

Watch us get Oxford at home icon_frustrated.gif

Didn't realise that was the case with Toronto's cup games

I thought Toronto's 'home' games in the cup were played at Manchester Regional Ground? The one next to Etihad?

As for the cup I'd actually like an easy tie! Haven't had one since Rochdale in 2013! So I'd like Haydock away. Take a good following and help them get a good gate. Then get a money spinner at Headingley in Round 5.

Failing that. I would love Keighley away. Haven't played a competitive match against them in years. Have a soft spot for Keighley as I was on scholarship there so it would be nice to get them a good crowd and a good local derby!

But I want Leeds away in the next round no matter what, for money, for TV coverage and it will be a loss so we don't have to worry later on the season about cup and league games each week. So we will get a week off here and there to recover which will be important for our survival. Hope KR go to the final again, and have the same effect on their league games as it did last time haha!
