London will bring about 14 fans. Not sure how packed the ground will be or what sort of atmosphere will be created.

| I'd like to think we'd come close to filling it but I'm not convinced.
It could be as low as 5,000 IMO.

Really? do you think they will both score that many points?

CC odds Wire 5/4 Hull 9/1, not really 50/50 is it?

| I'm sure we were favourites when they beat us at HJ this season.
Oh yeah, bye no.1 done and dusted.
Bye no.2 in two weeks.

| Yeah like that's a comparison, if that had been a cup match it would have been a different kettle of fish.
Put it this way, if Henderson & Des had pulled out Wire v London i'd already have my wembley tickets, don't kid yourself London are pathetic, if you don't stick at least 60 on them i'll be surprised.

[quote="FlexWheeler":8f22o6ue]The extent of his coaching is ''BASH EM, JUST F*CKING BASH EM. HE'S LOW ON CONFIDENCE, BASH HIM''
He's a limited coach that won't last long term.[/quote:8f22o6ue]
....
[quote="rubber duckie":8f22o6ue]That would make Wigan strong favourites then. With Ratchford at FB and Patton with Cronk in the halves, I think we'll do very well without Sam.[/quote:8f22o6ue]: |

Yep, wire showed us last year how to dispose of London.
How many did they score? 62 to warringtons 18 or something similar.
Write a team off at your peril. We should have beat castleford, we didn't.

What, you're trying to say your big Good Friday derby means nothing?
Well I suppose it doesn't if you lose it - especially against a "bye" team.

| Week before cup final, i was at that game and it was obvious that they didn't want to get hurt, never seen such a lack of intensity it was like touch rugby, i'm getting a bit fed up if this attitude were we have to show faux respect, "oh we have Keighley in the cup, we can't let them blah blah", we'll annihilate them end of, like you'll destroy London, it's not arrogance if they're rubbish and you're honest. People moan about Eddie and Stevo bigging up rubbish games, you're doing the same in effect, bigging up a team who are at the bottom even though the team above them had a points deduction.
People bringing up past games against us to make a point too, what a silly way to make a point, there are always variable factors.
We rested against Widnes, if we had them in the cup yesterday do you think we'd have rested anyone?
Wigan want to win cups, they'll play full team at full intensity for 20 minutes be 30 points up then ease off, we all know it, don't lie to yourselves.
This isn't like Sheffield years ago or even Catalan, those teams were capable, London are not.

| The only silly point is people claiming there are "bye" teams in a one-off game, especially when they are SL teams.
I'd imagine the "bye" teams would be considerably better if they weren't playing Wigan, a bit like Hull suddenly being a 50/50 game when Warrington will be strong favourites.

To the fans yes, to the players and coach not so much, Tony thought he'd win this resting players,some needed the rest others he didn't want on the (i)njury pitch, they didn't step up, seem to recall you doing the same thing.
If every team played to their absolute peak, not one player having an off game, no errors or anything, no one could live with Warrington and Wigan, currently head and shoulders above anyone, now yes we all have days off but Widnes were never going to test you, come on, don't lie to yourself just so you can feel morally superior.
Don't kid yourself that you weren't jumping round the room when you drew London either, and yes Hull are capable of a big performance, we bring our A game and we win, certainly no walk over.
Are having a grown up conversation or co you just want to look good in front of your mates?
Hull beat us, they beat us because they had a superior game plan, we didn't play too bad but they had their tactics spot on. Tell me now many Hull players could potentially or actually make the England squad, then tell me his many London or Widnes players could. That shows they have quality, they'll out number us 2-1 in a neutral stadium and want it, going on percentages then instead if 50/50 lets say 55/45 Wire, happy?
