Got 4 seats together mate block 106

Adam Hills as well, granted its not a high ranking royal, but he's someone that deserves something like this as a thank you for his PDRL work.

He's up alongside AB I believe.

block 142 for us!

Wires71 seems like a man of class and manners and probably isn't thrilled about the prospect of being surrounded by a group of lads tanked up like they are on a stag do, acting like knobs, having paid less for the privilege than he has.

I've also had an upgrade so he might end up getting his view blocked by my "Bring Back Tony Smith" banner.

Correct. However, You'd think that Harry would have been involved in the final since taking over from Liz as the sports Royal representative. I don't think It's too much to ask. He's met with the England RL team before now and show some interest whether that be forced or not. For a bloke that's a pretty irrelevant member of the Royal Family you'd think he'd be keen to turn up to pretty much everything to give the official thumbs up.

Mmm I doubt you would be so sanguine if you bought something that someone else had been given for nothing.

It's not about the £ it's about how the RFL treats it's fans.

Luckily I'm right behind the sticks in the Wire end and it was pretty much sold out 3 weeks ago so hopefully I won't be sat with the characters Sally describes.

I am on the end of a row though so will get the pots running to the bog/bar all through the game.

Arh you see I bought row 01 behind our sticks and in the middle so I don't need to stand up.

Well the RFL are moving to Manchester soon so hopefully will get some closer ties!

BBC Sport are in Salford, not Manchester.

Good point Terry on your Greater Manchester knowledge but it's hardly 'Tipperary' I think that they had offices in Trafford previously, a short walk across the bridge from Media City which didn't seem to offer any traction

I think that the game as had a few plugs on the Beeb to be fair and I'm not going to stress about the attendance as long as we are well represented and get behind the team I do think that a change in date would help teams with SL play off ambitions and attracting neutrals

It's the date that is wrong, not the venue.
