It is a genuine trade off guys! I understand the fans reasons for not wanting to come to Headingley on Boxing Day and also given you now have an established arrangement with the Dulls but... assuming you get an invite then turning it down is turning down more money as the proceeds, after costs, are split 50/50.

So simple question, go away to Headingley but get a bigger financial reward for doing so or, stay at home but take less revenue income?

When we went down, the Rhinos dropped us for this fixture like a ton of hot bricks. Why don't you carry on playing with your new friends from Wakey?

I know its a bit early but I have heard that Leeds are looking at renewing our Festive Challenge game at Headingley on Boxing Day. Could be to do with Wakey dropping down a division.

I thought we had an agreement with Bradford Bulls for a game on this day at home.

You're being a bit premature on Wakefield being dropped.

Didn't Leeds drop us in favour of Wakey due to the Gareth Ellis deal?

No, they dropped us after we got relegated IIRC.
