  1. That sounds great tbf, on the coach at 6, pass the ales around, quick stop at Stafford Services for more beers and nobody remembers getting to the stadium let alone anything about the match.
  2. Are you getting ready for the 1895 cup final? I haven’t been yet, looking forward to seeing Saints there in May.
  3. I don’t mind £10 for a midweek daytime group game between the Cook Islands and Greece or whatever (I know they’re not in the same group) but £20 for the final utterly devalues it.
  4. I assume a number of you have received an email from the RLWC offering upgrades if you buy tickets in the next 48 hours? While I appreciate the need to sell tickets; it’s concerning that they’re doing this already, particularly for the final which maybe they don’t think will sell out. It’s also not great for the enthusiasts among us who bought tickets as soon as they could and don’t get the discount.
  5. Can’t wait to see the comments on this forum if, as seems likely at this stage, Fev go up and Toulouse go down.
  6. Thanks. I’m surprised Rochdale’s was so low, all the others look ok though.
  7. Anyone know any of the L1 attendances from yesterday yet?
  8. Easy to use words like disgraceful from behind your laptop screen in Stevenage but what would you do to improve things that Wire (a progressive club) haven’t thought of?
  9. Or even at Wilderspool, other than during an extreme event such as an air raid or snow storm?
  10. The FA Cup got overtaken by qualifying for the European cups though, RL doesn’t have that, the CC is still the second best thing to win and the vast majority of clubs’ only chance of success. I love knock out cups, maybe showing my age there though.
  11. I wonder if the devaluing of the FA Cup somehow had a knock on effect to the CC in people’s minds.
  12. I don’t know why crowds are so low for cup games tbh, if I still lived up North and was a regular RL attender I’d just as happily go to a cup game as a league game, probably more so actually.
  13. If players prefer League and would choose that over Union if they got a decent season in, then I don’t see why not. But as you say @welshmagpie, the RFL will never try to organise it.
  14. Tbf it’s been happening in football since the dawn of time and hasn’t hindered them. Though yes in RL it’s bonkers.
  15. Leeds is as major a city as Toulouse, and the Rhinos are the second sport in town compared to TO’s 3rd (by. Considerable distance) with a hostile local media. I’d love to see TO, or indeed any club, become as big if not bigger than the existing clubs, but TO have a heck of a job to get anywhere near that imho.
  16. Wigan have won 22 leagues, 19 CCs and 4 WCCs.
  17. Maybe in Hull and the heartlands but I don’t think anyone under the age of 50 who isn’t a RL fan would know of them any more than Bradford, Saints or Warrington.
  18. Which Aussie team are more successful than Wigan?
  19. Do you really think TO can be bigger than Leeds, Wigan and Saints? Also I bet SL would give their right arm for another club as big as Hull or Hull KR.
  20. I love how you don’t round even round them up to 10, let alone 100, other than Catalans.
