| Quote: Pats plastic pitch "2000+ Widnes fans going, just sold out of all day and weekend passes for the gallowgate end. Haven’t got a clue how we’ve sold that many but looking forward to it as always.
Saturday is usually the better day. We(Widnes) always seem to get a game then, not complaining but it is a strange one to be matched up against Saints. Try fest for everyone to watch before two great games to finish the day.'"
Where have you got 2k Widnes fans from?
Regards

Went to the shop before, day allocation of 400 sold out. Then a second lot of 500 sold out. The third allocation was apparently another 500 and that was excluding the weekend passes we’ve told. Only from what the shop staff were saying.
Could be well off the mark but we’ve always took a decent following to Magic weekend in the past without setting the league on fire. |

Yeah, but you can't blame 'em for getting out of Cas for a little while.
It's good to see they're still committed to the cause, especially after last seasons debacle.
At least they've got an easy fixture, based on the majority of recent results against Leeds. |

It should be league position:
1v2
3v4
5v6
7v8
In the words of Stevi; “it’s as simple as that”
The games would all have an element of doubt and probably some really good clashes. Saints v Widnes is going to be a terrible advert for the game just like the Easter Monday farce. 50-12 is my prediction

So the week before MW, you tell the fans that we might be playing on Saturday or Sunday because we're not sure what position in the table we will be.

You could either base it off of the prior year's final standings, or simply have a cutoff point after several rounds of the current season and use the standings as they are at that moment in time.
Either way you will get teams more evenly matched than what we have now.
They did actually do it this way for at least one year. Not sure why they didn't stick with it, maybe the gates were down as a result.

You've just answered your own question…… it doesn't work. |

All lower tier stands except the East and sold out for Saturday now. But they are keeping quiet about Sunday, think we will see a big difference between the two days sadly

Could be a surprise addition to Hull's team this weekend. Kirk Yeaman has registered as a member of the first team. If needs must, he'll be coming out of retirement on Sunday!

Crowds were down, for example Hull got Harlequins, which while a fair draw poistion wise (they beat us) didnt get the pulses racing like the Hull derby does, you only need a couple of unattractive games and you can be 5k fans down as a result. |

Glad Hull aren't playing my lot Wakey. He was usually good for at least one try every game. |
