Fantastic TV, the RFL never let us down Only the clowns in charge could manage to get a laugh out of a Cup draw. No not hot and cold balls in the bag or spilling balls out over the floor, hey presto !!!! Balls coming out of the hat with no numbers on them It's a good job the bloke in charge of ceremonies was mystic and knew it was ball 10 Hope we get through against Lids, can't wait to see what they've got lined up for the next draw

Any thoughts

I said before the draw thats the game I wanted and thats what we got. Hopefully it will be an afternoon (most likely Saturday) so we will take a decent following over there. That also means more revenue for the club under the ticket sales rule of the CC. To the win the comp you have to beat the best and I rather face them now than have to do it in the final.

Hope it's more than the amount you brought over for the league game, is it hard to fill a 50 seater coach :

Thank you God. Worried that we'd draw one of the big boys.

It's great that you go on about our crowds -means you aren't sure about winning....

Goes without saying its a tough draw, but then again we do have a good recent record at headingley and wasnt far off winning their recently.

Id imagine this will be the TV game, so yes we will get Bentham as ref

Dont agree with this oh you have to beat the best teams blah blah, id enjoy another trip to wembley thanks and so would the club, even if it did mean losing in the final.

the actual draw was a joke, one ball didnt have a number on when they pulled it out.... how did they know it was Leighs ball when the draw hadnt actually finished? did they find a number 10 on the floor or something
