Send a free coach to Leeds too?

Why not use the money to round up some fans from your own town first

| To win competitions and trophies you have to beat the best... or just Fax as well I suppose.
It is certainly a difficult draw made all the harder with it being away.
But these games definitely generate the best atmosphere in this league and I suppose it's a bit of a shame that our two teams couldn't contest the final and pack the ground out.
I suppose whoever loses will go on to beat Fax in the super sevens final the day before.

I dont reckon we will get to that final this time. To be fair though its a nightmare draw for Widnes drawing the best team in the comp away. Still could have been worse its not that far a drive home after defeat unlike us.

| You will already be on your way (officially) to SL by the time the quarter-final comes around. So will the players care? I suspect there'll be a few sore heads next weekend in Widnes. Every team from then on will be trying to give you a pasting. Will your players be big/strong/professional enough? You will find out shortly.
Alternatively the NRC won't matter to you once the nod is official, so just let us win anyway

Maybe so, but as you announce all your wonderful overseas players over the rest of the season, more will realise their days are numbered.

I'm pretty relieved we can't meet in the final to be honest, I don't think I could stomach potentially losing a final to your lot.

Potentially a sell out too in the expanded Bloomfield road would of been great for Championship!

Maybe, maybe not... Only time will tell. Betts has told them they all have a shot at SL contracts.
Like saying a fringe player stepping in for suspension wouldn't bother as be off next year.
Our lads will have SL contracts to play for and if not will want a top champ deal at the likes of yourselves / Fax & Fev or even just a contract full stop. Plenty to play for

And a nightmare for the losers. The Sunday night entertainment would be VM chucking himself off the pier!

Capacity of 16,000 so doubt it'd sell out but I'd have thought a game like that would hit 10,000 at the very least.
Would think it will be a good crowd for the final anyway if one of Widnes, Leyth, Fev or 'Fax get there.
