Warrington is a football town.

Bob, I was more referring to if Warrington advance and reach top flight opposition.'"
Fair enough. Chances are the Premier League team would put out a weakened team and it's be closer than you think. Exeter drawing with United and United narrowly beating Crawley are two that spring to mind.

Thanks. Not being facetious I just know little about soccer. Although I have been to a couple of Warrington Town end of season dinners!

Exactly - I know some on here often question why Wire don't attract bigger crowds, seeing as Warrington is such a populated town, and the answer is a pretty simple one in that many people actually prefer, and actively attend, football.
I think if we are honest, only Wigan can really call itself a 'Rugby League' town in this country. Towns like ourselves, St Helens and Widnes are much more submerged in football than RL.

I lived in Hull for three years and RL is by far the bigger sport. The same can be said for Castleford, Featherstone and arguably a few other places.

Well if we go off participation, I believe more kids play RL there than in Wigan!

ironically that could be right, how many standard league games in any sport could sell out Wembley?

Fair points, but, generally a one off a treat, could they fill it 20 times a year? Also, if London FC was the only franchise in the capital and the Arsenal's and Spurs' etc never existed.....
Back on topic ish I support Wire RL and MUFC (a crime to some I know) but I hope Warrington Town have proper Cup Run and don't think it will harm our game.

Does it clash with the live arrival of the Titanic in New York on BBC1?
