Quote: jonny the leyther "I'll take that bet.'"
Too bad I wasn't offering a bet then. Last year Wigan v Saints at Warrington had tickets available on the day. Our two greatest clubs unable to fill a 12k ground in advance. Two decades ago the same semi final was held at Old Trafford. Wire v Hudds may sell out and I hope it does but it's a hardly cause for celebration. There should be 20k+ plus at that semi and 30k+ at Wigan v Leeds. The curent dire straits of the cup is not a sad indictment of the cup but a sad indictment of modern day RL fans.
I expect widespread moaning from opposition fans about the parking nightmares and general awful facilities on offer in the ground after the semi. At least we'll now get our full safety certification.
