Which ever way you look at things, their pack last night is better than most other SL teams. The fact we stood up to them was a fantastic effort from our lads'"
Walters, Wakey can’t win really when playing Wigan last night, Wigan academy this Wigan academy that, bring these young stars through all the time but when they are being bullied it’s their 2nd and 3rd team selections, there was enough quality on paper to push and even beat us but what I saw was a team on the back foot and dominated by Wakey for most of the game , our defence was top drawer and ball movement excellent, looking forward to York next week, bring the season on

Yes I noticed that too, one or two others in their side also did the same.

| Just a minor point and not detracting from the atmosphere last night but if the new stand was a sell out why all the empty seats?

Usually do that towards end of the game…but last night we didn’t get that far.

| Wigan fan in peace
You did dominate us last night even with our biggest forwards out. I’m sure when R1 comes round we’ll have it together.
You had a few out and so did we so I’m hoping a rematch in the Challenge cup is on the cards would be a great game I’m sure.
Good luck with the season lads don’t think you need to be worried you should the league with that squad. Just need sort them bloody lights out!

Yes I had the same problem . There seemed to be plenty of speakers along the stand roof but I don't think they were working correctly, definitely need sorting . However Matt Ellis seems a man of action and will be on to it. These things happen, just snagging issues and last night was ideal to test things out.
Regarding attendance, I saw smaller crowds at many of our home games last season and it looked very healthy for a friendley

| Bit of a novelty in the new stand last night.
Last time I sat in the East Stand was 2nd division rugby back in 1995 when there was a downpour and the doors were opened to allow free entry to escape the rain. Brad Davis had just arrived from York.
I'll be happy to get back into the North Stand come the full season opener. Wrist band or not!
