This Fourth Round Challenge Cup tie will kick off at 3.00pm.

My only concern is the lack of turnstiles. especially at the petrol station end.

We will just have to make sure we get in nice and early.

Just don't tell the Cas fans

No room for the BEER TENT then i suppose ?

Anybody contacted JACKO for a Half time set seeing as hes desperate to get a GIG in UK.

What a sod we are in Egypt for this tie , just had no faith in making it through a Challenge Cup round ( JOKE lads ). Somebody give a cheer for our Simon he gets nowt these days hes a forgotten toiler and gets a bit down without family in the stands. .

See you all at Oldham , most of you will have noticed the scoring TIME line for their Blackpool match , what on earth was going on ?.

be advised the season tickets only get you in free for challenge cup round 3 which was against pia I only found out when collecting my ticket the prices mentioned are correct. I have asked club to make this a bit clearer for folk.

Dont want to sound grovely but I for one often shout bissells name out I think he's a real grafter and always sticks his neck out for the cause! Don't let his head drop he's better than that.

Hi guys

Just to confirm the Castleford game and season ticket situation.

For all Championship clubs their season tickets are eligible for their 1st round which is round 3 (Pia).
Super League clubs - their season tickets are eligible for their 1st round which is round 4 (Cas).
All junior season tickets are for all clubs are eligible upto the semi's.

The reason for this is to increase crowd attendances during the earlier rounds plus the old days of having a big pay day when you get a top club have more or less gone.
Champiosnhip clubs do receive a compensation pay out for this.

Hope that makes sense and i hope to see you all down at Cougar Park this SUnday and against Castleford.

Thanks, Helen

I remember my 1st game at Cougar park. The 1998 Cup game v Wigan. The place was packed. Helens right though, those days are dying, and this is a way to try and bring them back. You only have to have watched the tv games the last couple of years and seen the empty stands.

It always amazes me why the clubs dont fill the side of the stadium that the camera is looking at. It makes it look like the popular sport it should be.

Anyone got a picture of the stadium.
I cant for the life of me remember what it looks like and how many stands it as.

Sorry haven't got a picture but if this helps try google earth. Just put in cougar park royds ings Ave, BD21 3RF.

Got my ticket sorted its called working so i get to watch a great game and get paid for it yey

Coming over by train, is there any "familly" pubs near the ground?
When I say familly I mean let kids in not the ones with ball pools and numbered tables!

are there any not is there any

There is a good family pub on the main roundabout with Bradford Road, HardIngs Road and Airevalley Road. It was busy the last time we went and that was without thousands of Cas fans. The park opposite is also good for a kickabout with the kids.

I remember Andy Farrell's pass out the back on the right wing in that game, led directly to a try, superb skill, we also signed a Wigan player on loan on the recommendation of John Monie, a second rower, Gerry ...

76-0 was the score. Gerry.. sufferd a knee injury in his first game for us, went back to Oz as a result, what on earth was his surname...(senior moment)
