Looking forward to this. Having only been following Wigan away since '99 this is one of the few grounds I've not been to.

Still one of my favourite Challenge Cup memories as a kid, was watching Fev beat Hull in the 1983 final against all odds (on a par with Sheffield beating us in 9icon_cool.gif. Remember watching on telly and hoping one day that Wigan would get there, only had to wait 12 months.

Can't wait for this match, be good to see some world class players at Post Office Road.

I'm chuffed to bits with this draw, never thought I'd see the day when the mighty Wigan graced Post Office Road again.

Should be an easy win for you, but then again........

Already started the needle with my old man, who's a Pie at heart, although he's been a Flat Capper since moving over to the posh side of the pennines in 1967

Homer thats a grand old Yorkshire name if I ever heard one.
As for (fert) the posh side of the penines there is one thing that allways sticks in my mind every time I return from Yorkshire in the late afternoon .
That is when I reach the crest of the hill at Saddleworth on the M62 and look down on Lancashire and all I can see is the Lancashire pain bathed in evening sunshine.
But when I look into the rear view mirror all I can see is the approaching darkness.
Really though I am chuffed to be playing a team who in the 50s and 60s ( and even later)
caused fear in opponents who had to go there. Good luck.

Its good to read so many positive and encouraging posts about Fev. You will all be made most welcome and hopefully it will be a sell out and another good spectacle for rugby league. For those who have never been, expect a passionate atmosphere to reverberate around the ground, its quite an experience!

As for drums and flags, bring them all and sing up loud cos we certainly will.

Looking forward to seeing Wigan on the slight gradient again, still remember one of the last games we played against you, the game when we beat you. Never expected that on that day and not expecting to win again but............. we can live in hope I suppose!!!

Happy with this, wanted Leigh away but they'll do for the QF's

Can't wait, tickets will go fast for this, anyone got an idea of what our allocation might be? And when they will go on sale?

If the ground holds 6500 ish and they got just over 4k on in a local derby on Saturday against Cas i'd be suprised if we got less then 2000. That should be enough to satisfy the demand of fans wanting to go.

Good to read plenty of positive comments, this is the way it should be.
Exciting times at POR & its great to have a world class team coming down here.
Should be a cracking old fashioned "David & Goliath" game.
I'll not wish you luck...!! But hope you all have a cracking day & hope we get an easier team in the next round...!!

Well they don't come any tougher than Wigan !

Got a feeling I'll end up missing this due to work. Surely the BBC aren't stupid enough to pass this game up.
