it's official just got this off the widnes website, 12 coaches full. i bet bloody set off early don't want to get stuck behind all them

=redBookings have now closed for the Vikings' coaches to Halifax on Sunday with a total of twelve buses travelling over the M62 for the Northern Rail Cup Semi Final.

The coaches will leave the Stobart Stadium, Halton at 12.30pm but the Stadium Social Club will be open from 11am serving hot food for travelling fans.

Fans are reminded to retain their coach tickets as they will also be checked on the return journey

Uh, Breaker One-Nine, this here's the Rubber Duck
You got a copy on me Pig-Pen? C'mon

Uh, yeah 10-4 Pig Pen, fer sure, fer sure
By golly it's clean clear to Fax-Town, C'mon

Uh, yeah, that's a big 10-4 Pig-Pen,
Yeah, we definitely got us the front door good buddy,
[size=150Mercy sakes alive, looks like we got us a convoy[/size

Where on earth are we going to put 12 coaches on the The Shay Fortress car park seeing as most of it is covered in rubble? Unless they're minibuses

We don't have to provide the coaches somewhere to park. It'll be upto the coach company to arrange that.

Anyone know where Barrow's 4 coaches went during the game?

B & M

At what time? I saw one of them driving around empty at about half 2 going past the stafford arms

There's the Eureka Car Park.

Going back to topic I would be very disapointed if we didn't get over 4000 for this game.

It would be a massive 2 fingers up to the RFL if we get a huge crowd for this game, if we get 4/5,000 it will be bigger than some SL games for what some people perceive as a 'nothing' competition.

That's four fingers though.

Odsal, they could do with some help

We helped them out in `62 when they went bust, we gave them 2 players it`s time they gave them back but can`t see any that would get in our side.

The anticipation for Sunday is now reaching fever pitch. A "bumper" crowd, Sunny Intervals Max: 19°C 66°F, great news on re-signings, a semi-final worthy of the final itself and a victory which promises a cracking "Halifax" day out in Blackpool.

Lets have a few beers watch a good game of Rugby League, good crowd and show them that Rugby League does exist outside SL.
Heres to a good game all.

Will be a couple of Leythers there supporting 'Fax.

We could get half of them in the drive that leads up to the bottom end of the north stand given that that would be where most of the Widnes fans will be.

AGREED

Any pics of the crowd?

Think I heard the official crowd as 3,900ish? Must have been far more than that, surely?! Was rammed where I was stood in the South Stand and Widnes must have taken in the region of 2,000.

I was at the bar talking to a Barrow fan that had driven down with a few mates, simply because he enjoyed last weekend so much.

Today was a great atmosphere. Just glad the Chemics got in, must of been absolute bedlam at the turnstyles at the north end, did we manage to get the mounted police in to calm things down?

Could of done with some on B&M car park



Got sick of waiting in traffic for the dithering woman to sort things out on there and ended up going on the multi storey, thank god it was open today or I'd have still been sat waiting to get on B&M.

shared gate might keep the beging bowls at bay next year

So much for Lancashire unity eh Matt

Good to see you and Stu there today. Shame your lass got covered in beer when we were all jumping around the terraces.

My guess is around 1000 Widnes fans as they filled the middle three sections of the North Stand it was not rammed like in the South Stand but a good turnout not saying any other, well done to them.
For us to get 3000 home fans for an all pay game was excellent come on, we have had two home games in a week.
