Usual ten Jayne, we'll be in the bowling club by 5:30, will your dad be in attendance?

Tickets arrived today.

Are we behind the sticks at the usual end? (I know we're in the East, but no idea which that is)

It's the 'new' stand behind the sticks, opposite the scoreboard end (no idea why I still refer to it as the 'new' stand as it's been open for 5 years!)

I know what you mean. There's a 'new' Wainhomes estate behind my parents in Goose Green. It was opened by Pat Phoenix and she died in 1986.

Ah.

It must be a 'new' estate if you can not only remember the developer, but still use their name in reference to the site Similar thing in Atherleigh with the 'Maunders estate'

ill go for 5,455 with 2,000 wigan fans

Ah, but we've got history, see...coaches still pick up outside the "old gas showrooms"!

3 of us.

Let's not forget that the early Challenge Cup rounds tends not to attract the normal amount of home fans. We have an average of nearly 15K at the moment but had we been drawn at home for this game I would suggest the crowd being around the 6K mark (if that), the same can be said for other clubs throughout the game.

Guys! Very excited about the game! Big RL fan! You should also check out www.challengecuptickets.co.uk for getting a guaranteed ticket to the final! You pay a small booking fee and then when Wigan get through to the final you get a ticket at face value! Worth a look - no? Todd

Is Leyther Matt the new spokesman for the Stobart Stadium?

The other stands won't be sold out, I'd imagine the main stand (South) will be full with the North almost full, you'll fill the East with the West probably remaining shut. We got 3,500 for the Fev game Friday night and Fev brought about 200 at best, I'd like to think a few more will come with it being against SL opposition. 6.5 - 7k would be a decent crowd in a game that will be pretty one sided looking at the cap difference and our injury list.

With a full squad I'd have been confident of at least a competitive first half, with you guys running away with it in the second.
