39 Days to go...

I was hoping they would offer a postal service for this edition. Planning a big afternoon/evening and was hoping that the club would post out copies so I could keep it in perfect condition rather than risk creases and spilling beer over it! I would be happy to pay an extra quid or two for it to be posted to me.

What's happening to the Willows are you leave?

Not sure, i think that Swinton might be having one more year there as they have no groung and they are on sky tonight live at the Willows.

No after September thats it, the ground will be demolished for housing
Swinton will be moving to agecroft for next season.

where? The dog kennels??

Any chance of this game selling out? Or are memories not that fond?

Highly unlikely


Nowt to do with memories not being that fond, there's just not that many of us that holds those memories.

Sadly I think the fact we're playing Catalans (no disrespect to them BTW) may not grab the imagination of Joe Public, if it had been Wigan, Saints, Warrington or Leeds then I would have expected a sell out instead I think around 8k is all we'll get.

Crikey it's all becoming a reality!

I dont think the opposition is a big issue regarding our floating or long lost followers. The difference is obviously if we had played say Wigan or Warrington who are topping the league they would have brought upto 3k with them.

Tenner admission is more of a selling point than the opposition for the last game at the Willows. I know a lot of people that are planning on coming down for the final game that only go a couple of games a season and reduced ticket prices will influence them. Really happy that the final game is a Sunday too.

Im more than happy for us to be playing Catalans and although we aint going to put the ground full signs up I will be disappointed if we dont get 7k.

Am I missing something here? Is it a tenner for everyone (with the exception of season ticket holders) as I was thinking of inviting a few people down for the last game but one or two of them are elderly and would need to sit in the main stand, I've been on the Reds site and it says it £10 for the centre of the Main stand (say Block 4) but to sit in Block 8 which I would suspect isn't as good a view it will cost you £23!

It would be a tremendous gesture for you to say what a great bloke John Wilkinson is for letting you play at The Willows
