TBH the less said about the att the better but i did have a laugh when they annouced it. |

| Quote: Leyther_Matt "Anyone else notice how long McGilvray was held back for after dropping the intercept in the lead up to their last try? Still none the wiser as to how the ball went flying forward when Blanch was tackled.'"
At the time, it appeared that Blanch's inside pass hit a Leigh player and bounced towards our line. A Leigh player (Govin?) dived on the ball, but only succeeeded in knocking it even further towards our line, and Henderson scored. I thought that was a legitimate, if lucky, try. I believe Fred has already confirmed that he thought it was a 'good' try, too. |

I dont think thats a bad crowd considering theres no complimentary tickets for the cup games and no season ticket holders can get in apart from SL ones, so like i say no season ticket holders got in for free, so not bad at all.
Fax were hoping for a sell out today but i think we will sell about 2K tickets and Bradford cant give away 3K tickets to their 10K+ season ticket holders. Oh the magic of the cup. |

Let it go San, the scars of last year seem so deep seated you need help. Oh and not many SL teams brought 2500 to HP in 2005, but thats all history now. |

Saints and Wigan managed it as well.
Don't think I'm the only one who was a little surprised at how low the announced crowd was as I can't think of any occasions where either stand has seemed busier (my rule of thumb is how far people spread out in the West, and it was busy right up to the try line at the North end). |

Another thing that annoyed the hell out of me was when Higson was tackled in 1st half and the Cats player took an age to get off ,one of them crawled all over him literally ,then not long after he got Leigh for holding down ,unbelievable !!!!

| Well if the noise in the North Stand, [and the West to be honest as they joined in with the singing] was anything to go off there were more than that on, the atmostphere was electric, well done to all.  |
