Hope the Beeb go for the Fev v Wigan game with Sky choosing either Warrington v Bradford or Salford v Leeds.

Good draw short term, awful long term. Is the game going to be on the Sunday?

its always tough to play the same fixture so close to each other. Leigh away is winnable but also tough so not delighted either

I disagree mate, whoever wins Leigh v Fax get the chance to make some coinage unless they draw Catalan or London, and if they draw London at home it's an even tie.
Leigh won't be easy though....

Our Game against Leigh in the Challenge Cup will be played on the week-end of the 28th & 29th April

Give 'em a ring and ask them to play it at the Shay Malc.

Fair point, but in terms of progressing to the semis it'll be a tad tricky looking at the teams who will probably be left. Was always going to be a tall order though. But like you've said, Leigh will be a tough nut to crack...

during the draw it said ties to be played 27th - 29th april.

Can't see it being anything other than the Sunday, unless of course we're picked for TV!

Hope its not on Tv as it will effect the crowd, should be a decent crowd on a Sunday and a few quid for the team that gets knocked out.

Cant wait and wont predict untill after this Thursdays match.

gotta be happy with this draw!

whoever turns up will win, just like on thursday in the league.

id take a loss on thurs for a win in the Ccup though, but sport doesnt work like that.

would have preffered a home tie, but if we're gonna win the cup we've got to do it the hard way!

i suspest they will pick the 2 all SL ties for the BBC - god forbid the RFL show the world that there is life below SL!

Rfl don't pick the ties for tv

It's a no brainer, the all SL ties should be on. especially with the vested interest in the bulls plight and salfords stadium.

And because I'm working on Saturday afternoon

I will pay Leigh to stage it on a Saturday Afternoon then .

.

If previous seasons are anything to go by, we should win at yours, on Thursday, and you will win at ours, the following week!

Well that confirms it as been played on sunday than

haha

Previous seasons arn't though!

especially now we have 'King Rhino'!!!

Better be on Sunday, got little lads footy final on Sat, and he wans to go to Leigh as well.

Could have been worse just wish we did not play each other in the league the week before it etnds to spoil the next match.
I think that BOTH games are important as we need to keep the momentum in the league and as we all know its a short season so you cannot afford to lose to often if you want to be top.
The cup game gives the winner chance to get into the quarter finals and a potential money spinning draw against one of the big boys.
Lets win both!

Looking at the fixtures, BBC or SKY would be daft not to show this game, I honestly hope it is - show them what for.

Good luck to both sides.

What a tie.

For me, the league should come first. I would expect whoever loses on Thursday to come back with a vengeance the following week!

Would Seem SKy are showing the Fev vs Wigan game on the Friday night

Hoping to catch the mother of all shocks

www.leighcenturions.com/article.php?id=7918 Lookslike the tie is on Sunday 29th with a 2 o clock kick off. Seems a strange kick off time

I wonder how long golden point time they expect to play ?????
