See.. this is my point exactly... there is a healthy rivalry between the teams mentioned... be carefull... paranoia is a self destroya... with all respect as a northerner watching a game against any other team Yorkshire... France..my red rose glasses would come out of their case but thats just the type of supporter I am (but it keeps the healthy rivalry going).

to be played at widnes

I hope Widnes/Leigh/whoever fans do turn up and support Catalans. It doesn't matter about Red Rose solidarity, bitterness, or whatever. Personally I've only been to two club RL games not involving Warrington in my life - the two Leeds V Bradford Grand Finals in 2004 and 2005 - but plenty of Wire supported Catalans in 2007 and I remember people on here posting about going to support Huddersfield V Saints last year. Not much Red Rose solidarity there but was it really bitterness or just a laugh? Who cares anyway?

We won't sell the game out on our own so a decent number of Catalans "fans" will boost the gate and improve the atmosphere. No problem as far as I'm concerned.

Supported both Catalan and Hudds at the Warrington semis last couple of years. Would NEVER supports Stains or Pies

It might just be that Saints are objecting to travelling over the Pennines to Huddersfield to play Leeds. After all the price of a passport is expensive.

Bump.
