Why have two hours between the games, surely ONE hour would be enough time for the groundspeople to put the pitch in order? If we go to support the Vikings we will not be staying for the Fax game.

To my mind there will be minimal widnes fans staying for the fax game either way. It might be concern for locals who want to attend both matches but they have completely shot themselves in the foot by holding our game at such an early time.

SAY IF THE WIDNES GAME HAD BEEN AT HALF 12 AND THE FAX GAME AT 4PM...HOW MANY MORE WOULD YOU HAVE BROUGHT?! NOT THAT MANY..THE TRUE FANS WILL BE THERE.
IF WE PLAYED A LOCAL WIDNES AMATURE TEAM AT HALF 11 I WOULD BE THERE.
I HOPE YOU TRAVEL IN YOUR NUMBERS |

Judging fans on whether they are real or not is never really justified. It's like the no true scotsman fallacy. No true rugby fan would ever insult an official, a true rugby league fan goes to every game etc etc.
I have a season ticket for widnes. I go to matches. I'm a supporter and as true as anyone and that's all there is to it.
I will not be attending this match for a multitude of reasons none of which I feel the need to justify to anyone. There will be plenty of widnes fans there, but to my mind not as many as if you'd had a sensible kick off time or changed it to the stobarts but c'est la vie. |

My sentiments exactly. We have to travel to Bradford on Saturday and we don't feel like travelling up again the next morning, what a stupid kick off time.

Bare in mind you can't get a train into Halifax until 11:20 ish I'd say a fair few extra. You struggle to get down here as it is never mind half 11 which is kids time! Good point there actually could lose a few juniors + family on that issue  |

I have a season ticket at Widnes but do not go many away games.Travelling from Gloucester is far enough to Widnes nevermind to Halifax.If it was a big game i would make more of an effort, and this is no disrespect to Siddal.  |
