Looks like they’ve only been allocated behind the sticks so would have fully expected them to sell that out at just shy of 2,000 Will be plenty of the unwashed in our end too, I expect. Most of whom probably live in Leigh

In the case of a single match, yes, but well worth the investment over the course of the season, not least because of how many Wakefield fans use that side, too.

Always find a way, don’t they?

Leeds playing with some great intensity at times but, my word, Leigh haven’t half coughed up some soft possession.

Was surprised to find a significant number of Wakefield fans on the Western Terrace last week (more so than at the cup game) so there’s certainly still a benefit to improving that side where possible even if ignoring the away fans

It would probably uncover just how much space there is on that side too which should help with any capacity increase

Is the West Terrace going to be re-profiled in a similar manner to the North Stand? I think that’s much of what away fans take exception to, really, with the lack of consistency with the steps and poor elevation.

A very familiar face, even going back to the early 2000s when the post-merger Gateshead club was in its infancy and I recall seeing him on plenty of occasions since RIP Kev

Tbf it’s very much the done thing at all away fixtures but at Catalans has an extra cultural significance. I dare say they paid to cater the food ‘just in case’, too, which I know was the case at at least one other away ground when eating has been considered cheating.

Cheers, must say that’s surprising (I’ve zoomed in on the original image so this might give a better indication of what I’d said previously)

Yeah I had to reduce the size of it so maybe doesn’t show up very well, but the main stand (on the right of the picture) had thousands of empty seats which is unheard of in my experience.

Le locals definitely seemed to be voting with their feet tonight

That were good

So much is going to depend on Leigh’s interchange selections. Play a forward might as has been the case for much of the season and we’re in trouble. Sort that and Leigh by 14.

I don’t think it was Blackpool not wanting it, but in true RL fashion the date got moved and nobody bothered checking availability. They’ve had Bash since then (the whole reason it was invented, in fact) and they need the cash. And Blackpool Council would be very supportive I’m sure.
