Realistically everyone will want us at home.

Another thing to consider: Let's say we do defy the odds and make the semi-final, they will be played w/e 14/15 July (So Dewsbury at home from the Fri night will need to be re-arranged!) - this is the week after the Trains Cup Semi - then we've got York away, and Blackpool the week after that!!

So July would be:

Sun 1st - Batley (away) League
Sun 8th - Batley (home) Trains Cup semi
Sat/Sun 14th/15th - Challenge Cup Semi
Sun 22nd - York (away) League
Sun 29th - Blackpool

Now THAT is a set of games to test our VERY small squad!!

Never mind test the squad, it would severely test anyone's wallet! Don't forget we play Batley in the NRC Quarters though so obviously still need to qualify for the semi.

jeeez you still bangin on about fridays? hardly set the world alite with friday attendances have we??

Anyone at home will do,cash in the till for leigh,if its london its a winable game and if we make the semi its more money again so london for me

Sorry, you're right Matt - we play them mid June in the quarters.....I was getting ahead of myself there!! I was discussing with Walt Jnr. (while sat on the car-park this afternoon!) about playing them in the semi a couple of years back - and that must have stuck in my mind while I was typing.....as we play them week before the semis!!

Getting to the CC semi final, and a return to Blackpool would be awesome for the club - but as you say, a nightmare for the finances of the supporters!!!

Nothing on tv so no excuse

Agreed hopefully the club push friday and saturday next season

Biggest 2200 gate I have ever seen today.

You might be right mo but Fax brought an awful lot today

I arrived in the ground twenty mins before Kick off and the crowd was poor at that stage, everyone arrived late.
Good turn out by Fax nice to see an away following.
We should get to open the South Stand if we get anyone other then London at Home in the cup.

Think it depends who, if we get Wire or Wigan i'd give them the whole East Stand and we'll have the rest.

I cant see us beating any of the teams left however we have an outside chance of beating London. Money wise would love the pies or saints but I would rather get to the semis than make a couple of quid, they money is there just as a 'bonus'. Worst possible draw is Catalan away we will get smashed! Give us Wigan away or London at home and i'll be one happy leyther!

I'd love to get to the semis too, as that would mean we'd 'done a Fev' and beaten a SL team. However, the message from the Fans Forum was that we desperately need some cash from somewhere this season - we are not out of the woods yet! So, I'd opt for a money-spinner this time round. Mind you, if we COULD get to the semis, that would be a double bonus, cash-wise!

Very true. Id hate to get Catalan away however I would be booking my flight this weekend if it happens

Because all the rounds are being shown on BBC then my gut feeling is that if we do get one of the big clubs at home I doubt whether the fans will turn out. So for me it would have to be London at home similar crowds and a chance however small to progress.
