Thats a bit harsh, I think Trin will score at least one consolation try

[ricky]

I'll be going. It'll be my second game of League, ever. How's that for newby-ism?

[georgeb1]

Just looking forward to seeing a great game , on paper trinity by a country mile but this york side never gives in.

[WakefieldCityLoyal]

Looking forward to this. We will need to play better than we did against York a couple of weeks ago, Lino is back so gives us more options.  Expecting a hard playoff game, like play off rugby usually is.

Up the Trin

Be interesting to see what crowd this game pulls in with season tickets now invalid.

Knights had an above average attendance in the playoffs so hopefully this continues in to the semi's 

[Vyvyan]

Hope York give Trin a game.  I can see it being close for an hour or so.

Full time makes a difference.

I had a glance at the East Stand seating portal and I'd say it's already more than 50% sold.

Northstand will surely sell out.

I'd hope for 5-6k for the semi and 7k+ for a final involving Bulls.

[The dark knight]

This could be closer than people think , York lost it in the first 12 minutes a couple weeks back conceding 12 points but for the next 68 minutes it was an 8-4 game and have to say it was great defensively from Wakefield to keep it to that score , You have to fancy Wakefield but don’t rule out the Knight especially if they start well , looking forward to a cracking game

What makes you think that??

There's no assumption of Wakey & Bulls winning in saying a final v Bulls would have x crowd.

If I'd said "there'll be x crowd WHEN we play Bulls in the final", you'd have a point.

[Wakey Til I Die]

York will give us a battle early doors but i expect us to win it with a little to spare in the end.

The ideal final for me.  Tight game as per our last visit to Odsall. 

Would be good travelling support from Bradford too, deserving of a share the bumper pay-out from the full house gate (unlike one homme and his chien).  

Bet one or two Super League clubs would prefer Bradford to get the bonus IMG points rather than Toulouse too?

But what about expansion, is that out of the window now?

Depends.

If you are drinking your way down - start at Harry's Bar > Fernandez Tap > Distillery Bar > Bridge Inn > ground; then yes.

Could throw in Supper Club and Qubana; definitely.
