I wouldn't call Wires putting 80 points on Hemel an embarrassment to RL. It would be inevitable and people would just give Hemel credit for getting to a position of playing SL opposition. In the unlikely event of Town progressing to the third round of the FA Cup and drawing Premier League opposition then I'd expect them to getting thrashed but that wouldn't be embarrassing under the circumstances either.

One thing is for certain though, despite very few people classing WTFC as the team they actually support (I've never met anyone who does), if they did play a match against a PL team and host it at the HJ, the attention it would receive would be massive. It would sell out quicker than any Wires match there ever has, and plenty of people who have lived in Warrington all their lives would enter the ground for the first time to watch it.

Certain "Wendyball" types on here might not like that, but it's true. I walk around Warrington now and see far more Wires shirts being worn on non matchdays in town than I used to when I lived there (I moved nearly 12 years ago) which is great. In that 12 years the move to the HJ has happened and the team have won trophies so obviously that has raised interest and made Warrington more of a rugby town than I feel it used to be. I still think football is the more popular sport though and as said above, that will be the case in most "rugby towns". That's just the way it is.

I'm working late on Friday so won't be able to watch the match, but credit to Town for getting to that stage and good luck to them.

Got a spare ticket going, first to PM me gets it. Face value.

I was born in Warrington, and I am genuinely interested - how do Warrington Town FC represent you and to whom?

I've followed the Wire for as long as I can remember but they do not represent me in any way, shape or form.

It clashes with a double dose of Coronation Street.....criminal.

still got that ticket?

250 fans from Exeter

Ticket has gone, sorry.

No problem, gotta work now anyway.
enjoy
