The only suitable bigger stadiums are on the other side of the pennines and i really doubt we would take more than 5500 that far for this game, in the playoff in 2006 v bradford which was also on a saturday and was the furthest we have ever been in superleague we took 5000

It's either local fixture and we take 5500 on a short, convenient trip to widnes

Or it's mcalpine/headingley/odsall and we take 5000 on a long, more expensive trip

I just had a text from Geordie which read:

Remember waiting ages last time from like 9am till 12 or something then my mate went at 4pm no one there

Queues in 2004 were 4 hours plus on the first day. Still no where near a capacity.

The queues in 2004 were caused by the hysteria and panic of the "game-will-sell-out-in-seconds" who are repeating themselves again this year.

How's that possible when they don't go on sale till 10am for season ticket holders?
