Quote: those were the days "I cant wait for my 1st visit to POR should be a cracking game and hope our fans travel over in numbers to make a cracking atmosphere.'"


I come off the M62 at Pontefract past the racecourse then turn right just after Ponte centre.

Best draw possible really. We've got a game we should win but it will be a very good contest away from home at a proper old style ground which should be watched by a near full house.

A proper cup match.

Quote: Ged Byrne's Shammy "Agreed. I remember some really tough games there, always remember there used to be loads of needle, I think two players they used to have that always caused us problems were Chris Bibb, and the shi*house Brendan Tuta, anyone remember these two?'"




Chris Bibb - full back, Brendan Tuuta, NZ test player, second row or loose foward, nick named "the baby faced assassin". I've only been the once, in the 93/94 Dorahy season, we lost something like 35-24, I think, and Dorahy had a right pop at Nigel Wright, who was playing stand-off, and had a bit of a mare that day.

Featherstone deserved the win, if memory serves, but they were always tough games over there.

Great draw for us, would have prefered to get Oldham at home and meet you lot in the next round but financially this is a cracking draw for us and will help keep us in the spotlight for a week or two.
For us to win you'd need to rest all your first team but it won't stop Fev fans being optimistic after beating our closest rivals.
When you get there if you see all the steelwork and concrete behind the ground they are our new stands we obtained from Scarborough. Hopefully if we play you again in a year or so if our Destination SL campaign works then you'll be sitting in one of those.
Hope you come in big numbers and enjoy your visit, looking forward to seeing you all whatever day it's played

Can I get in free if I bring my spanners and my big hammer to help you get the steelwork erected. (used to be my job)

Seeing as the headline on BBC website is 'Featherstone draw cup champions Wigan' I think its fair to say they consider this the highlight of the draw so you'd imagine they will pick it as their TV game.

I'd like us to be on TV but Warrington v Bradford or Salford v Leeds will be much better games than Wigan putting 40+ on Fev.

Does the train go past the ground still? Assuming not as IIRC it was a coal freight train that slumbered past every so often. I remember a game back in the early eighties and Wigan had a scrum feed, past the ball out and one of our players (think it was Wendy Whitfield) was day-dreaming watching the train go past. The whole section of the Wigan crowd shouted at him to catch the ball, think he dropped it or it went in touch. icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

Cracking little draw and another chance for fev to show what they can do against the big boys. On a selfish note I hope the game is Friday night as its my stag do on the Saturday!

Think it is safe to say we will come in big numbers, another ticket scramble, seems a long time since I went to POR, do you lot like drums and flags icon_smile.gif Looking forward to it, old skool.
