In SL the coach (vehicle) dropped us off outside the turnstiles virtually. Thats a plus point.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Yes but lets face it we have had in recent years
Wakey at home [ thank you mr Cummins ![]()
Leeds at home [ Misili's interception ![]()
Wire at home last year [ watching Marshy owning superstar Matt King ![]()
Not a bad run really when you look at it
As regards the ' crap ' ground  , short memory there Steve , the dust has hardly settled yet  |

The tie doesn't have a shock element about it. We'll be real underdogs, strangely looking forward to it.

| Looking forward to it.
Nothing to lose as everyone will expect a big Wakefield win.
It'll will make a change going to a SL ground and one we havn't visited too frequently over the last 20 years.
Just hope its sunny/ dry all day and we have a similar result to that we had when Simms was in charge and we went there as major underdogs  |

| My last visit to Belle Vue was 1980, a midweek game that finnished 14-14
don't know if I can raise interest for this tie though  just getting used to the LSV then we get this, arguably the worst ground in Super League, it will remind us though of just what we are missing |

5th April.
Would have preferred to have had them at home but it's a great chance for us to test ourselves against a Super League club. Let's do our utmost to take as big a following as possible and really get behind the lads - with a big support behind them, you never know... |

Ditto.. I was quite disappointed with the draw initially but there is no reason why we can not have an enjoyable day and I look forward to it. I just hope we can take a sizeable following. I'm going to look into a 16 seater for our lot. Don't think many would be willing to risk not attending and missing Leigh knock out a SL team (however small that may be ) |

Hard to get excited about this one.
Away from home
No glamour
Totally crap ground
It's in Yorkshire
Drab coach and dull team
They are playing well
Little chance of a Leigh upset
No cash to be made
Totally crap draw
Apologies for the uplifting post ![]()
I really shouldn't bite as you are clearly a being silly, but I will...
Away from home = Correct
No glamour = considering the teams you play week in week out the chance to visit a club that averages 7,500 a game would seem glamorous.
Totally crap ground = Agreed but then you would know having recently vacated one, cut the snobbery.
It's in Yorkshire = Correct
Drab coach and dull team = Don't be so stupid, average 5 tries a game with the likes of Drew, Brough and Latu - come off it.
They are playing well = No we are paying OK, the best is yet to come.
Little chance of a Leigh upset = That's for you to decide
No cash to be made = If you travel well then a a crowd of 8k is on the cards which is better than any NL1 team and the likes of Quins, Catalan, Celtic and Salford would give you.
Totally crap draw = Not Leeds perhaps but not exactly crap.
There, it's not all bad
