Had Widnes been playing Wigan, St Helens or Warrington there would have been a much higher attendance, and that's not just down to locality.'"
1. Leeds are the best Supported SL club and the 8th best Supported RL club on the planet
2. Wigan, Saints and Wire are derbies for Widnes....leeds is 3 times the distance away that Wigan is,.........the other 2 are inside 8 miles away...it has everything to do with locality as well as your obvious anti Leeds/Yorkshire attitude.
3. Widnes are not the draw that they used to be.

too subtle for him......

| Huddersfield hosting Catalan in the quarters could be record breaking for all the wrong reasons...2,500 is a record low for a Quarter Final....

| Should we maybe think of having a Magic Weekend style Cup quarter finals?
Either 4 games on 1 day or 2 double headers?
I certainly think we should have a double header for the semis. I’d go anyway if it was my team involved but if I were a neutral I’d be much more inclined to go to a double header.

IIRC (and this is from memory.....) London at Sheffield in 2013........it was the round before we got annihilated by Wigan and our owner spat hs dummy out, resulting in humiliation and relegation the following year......a hissy fit that has seen him bankroll us since out of guilt.
........which asks the question of Argyle and what he'll do next year once Toronto (under the cap) are hammered week in week out......
