RobertAM Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Wolfpack vs Lions - if the weather cooperates we should have a healthy crowd to welcome the boys back to Lamport. as it stands now think I have 21 going but I'm expecting a few more... any guesses on the crowd?..with the above weather proviso..I'm gonna say..7000 ...

RogerT Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 And just to think if you get into super league next season you are going to loose out on 2 local derbies i.e New York and Ottawa now the League 1 and Championship clubs have accepted them into the competition in 2020.

Kayakman Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 If the weather is good I think it will be a sellout or real close to one. If the weather its bad it will all depend on how bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you need to re-evaluate what a “local derby” is Roger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerT Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 They are derbies to you, you couldn't classify any of the English, French, aussies or Kiwi's as derbies. I have already started saving up for our away trips over there, I love the idea of it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice if Ottawa/Toronto work together and offered a season ticket deal where you get both tams home games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogerT Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Even closer Batley v Dewsbury less than two miles as the crow flies or four and half if I'm staggering back after a few pints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ojx Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 This game clashes with the Arrows MLR game against Seattle. It's a real shame they couldn't have made it possible to watch both games on the same day, it only needs an hour between the games to make it possible. Interesting to see how this effects attendance for both teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I discussed this on another thread long ago and now the date approaches...someone, might have been Parky, said that the Union game would outdraw the League game, alot depends on weather. However, if the weather is good, I predict a sell out or close to it for TWP. I, of course, wish the Arrows all the best but I can't see them outdrawing TWP...not even close. Time will tell who was correct (me or Parky) in this, as in many other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
