I doubt this is true 8,000 I would say would be difficult but achieveable. I know of 8 people from Runcorn who don't usually go but are going to this  and I only know 10 people.   |

With so many new players on both sides its a hard one to call Widnes will be up for it no doubt and the new pitch could be key none of us know what to expect there.
Would be no shock if its a full house Wakefield fans are coming in decent numbers
Glad to see Widnes back they should never have being away

I thought it was Snarf who played for Widnes?

Also if we lose, will be able to blame the pitch! It just gets better!

It's near impossible to tell how the game will go. Bookies have us as 2 point favourites, I'd take any win, 1-0, anything.
Misery guts on TiW are claiming we'll get about 5,300. Personally for the crowd I'd be disappointed with less than 7,000. It's the first game back in SL, we have 4,000 Stronghold members, Wakey are looking to bring around 1,000 and the club are putting deals on with the school.
To put it in context we started the season against Toulouse a few years back and put on some deals in the schools. They had 20 away supporters and we had far less ST holders. We managed 5,000 for that one.

I'd be shocked if we got over 8k, surprised if we got more than 7.

I think about 8,000 will be about right for your first game back. Though I think we'll win the game I'm slightly worried about Widnes' unknown quantity, and I remember we were whipping boys before for Hull KR when they returned and at Wire for the unveiling of their new ground and lost both games. So, as predictions go, my view is a close, entertaining game on the plastic paradise in front of a partisan crowd with Trinity just edging it by 7 pts. Good to have you back, quite like Widnes, always admired their strong team of the 70s and 80s with Reg Bowden, Stuart Wright et al.

Be nice to get that attendance but I doubt it, both ends would be open I presume,mind you I think they did that for the Salford game a few seasons back and put the schoolkids in the West Stand. |

On thread drift:
[quote="tb":24qn1m99]Tough. Conversations develop. It's their nature.[/quote:24qn1m99]
Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”
[i:24qn1m99]There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair
with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back![/i:24qn1m99]
[b:24qn1m99]Oooh-to… Oooh-to-be… Oooh-to-be-a… WOOLY![/b:24qn1m99]:24307.jpg |

I'm looking forward to the game now and I'm even getting a little, uncharacteristically, excited.
