Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

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.”

Dunno, but they missed off "garden hoses" from your interests.

The LSV must be full of dead geese by now, Starbug. It must take ages cleaning up the place?

| Quote: Pepe "That’s the capacity yes. The Castleford v Hull KR final (2005) has the record attendance of 9,400. Not quite full, but near as damn it. The East stand is included in that figure, it holds 1,700 and will be open on the day. Widnes have been allotted some sections of it. The rest may be earmarked for the x9's tickets.
Barrow has been given 3,500 max by the RFL, Widnes 3,700 max. That’s 7,200 from both. This leaves. 2,400 tickets left, and that’s only if Barrow sell their entire quota. 1000 tickets would be an over generous figure for Sponsors freebies and neutral fans (including the 9’s tickets) imo. That leaves at least 1,400 empty spaces on the day and I’ll tell you where they’ll most likely be.
There are a small square section of seats above the tunnel on the halfway line. (Grey area on seat plan marked section ‘M’) This is where the Northern Rail put their freebie clients, competition winners and RFL officials etc. I don’t think I’ve seen this full yet. There are slightly larger blocks either side of this that actually drop down to the touch line either side of the tunnel. (Pink sections L & N) This tends to be where they put the majority of the neutrals and this is where most of the x9’s tickets will go. (some neutrals seem to like to get in amongst the partisan fans. I saw around a dozen or so in Leigh and Wigan tops in the Widnes sections near me in 2007). This is also usually sply populated, and is probably the reason the Cas HKR game was 200 shy of being actually full. These and areas of the open East Stand will probably look emptiest.
If Barrow sells their allotted quota the rest should be full.
rlhttp://www.superleague.co.uk/tickets_event.php?id
Barrow is allottedLast point, as we clearly don;t agree on this point, which is fair enough, my figures were based on sales from the RFL. They have been selling these tickets for the last 6 months, so there may be some from there already gone. Somebody on here recknoed that Widnes had 3,900 sold due to this.
Aside from the ticketing issue, I'm really not sure why people are so upset by the 9's tournament. If people don't want to go, don't go. Like I said earlier, it was going to get me to go, and I will be going to the Floodlit 9's, which clubs are signing up to voluntarily, so it would surprise me if everybody hates it and they have all been forced.

My argument is not wether the fans want or dont want to go
It is the clubs that have the problem , If it had been voluntary fine , but it isn't
Just the usual lack of consideration by the RFL , " It's only the Championships , not a real RL competition is it is it " |

Halifax don't. We've put this comp on the front burner. Sack the NRC - what a tin pot cup that is. No, it's yer nines that king. The winners will get to take on a load of SL ego's at Headingley. I can't go cos i'm busy that day but my club is wholeheartedly 120% behind the concept. That's why we threw the match against Widnes. It's all for the greater good. Nines is the future man. It's Rugby League's answer to "twenny twenny". |

I dont know , we will only find out when they announce their squads
Would Tony be happy having to play 15 1 st team players in a 2 day event like this mid season ?
Especially if you still had relegation from SL and you were sat in the bottom 3 with 2 to go down ? |

Why not just treat it as a training session? It's only tag rugby when all said and done. |
