We're hoping to come and spoil the party! But I cannot see us keeping Wigan to a low enough scoreline to beat them.

Official pay back time

Cas did us in similar circumstances, 2003.

Cricket score

Michael Maguire?

Do you want to bet?

Our boys will be massively fired up for this one, Shaun Wane is making them watch the 2nd half of that match every day this week... should be a cracker

Dont know about a cricket score but you can get decent odds on a no ball in the first 10 mins!!

Someone wants the Pies to win

Wigan Warriors v Bradford Bulls 8pm
Ref J Child TJ P Grundill TJ M Thomason IG P Meadows IG M Hawkes RR C Leatherbarrow TK K Leyland MC G Kershaw

I wonder if thats why Micky G has gone quiet! Sobbing quietly in a corner somewhere!

Oh great, my last Bulls match of the year we get the pleasure of James Child.

Look on the bright side, you probably won't see much with where you'll be sitting!

Is it reserved seating then? Ticket I have has a specific seat number on, but since I've never been in that stand I'm not sure. Can we sit where we want in the Boston stand or do we have to sit in the seat detailed on the ticket?

Squad for game:

Rikki Sheriffe
Paul Sykes
Stuart Reardon
Brett Kearney
Nick Scruton
Heath L'Estrange
Andy Lynch
Steve Menzies
Glenn Hall
Jamie Langley
Wayne Godwin
Michael Platt
Mike Worrincy
Craig Kopczak
Jason Crookes
Elliott Whitehead
Tom Olbison
Danny Addy
Vinny Finigan


No Dave Halley, but Reardon is there so it appears he hasn't walked out like some suggested. Still wouldn't expect him to play though. Just slot Finigan in at fullback with Crookes & Rikki on the wings.

It is reserved yeah.

Thanks for that, I appreciate it. Save me confusion on the night!

One other question if I may, so save me wandering round the whole stadium. Is it the North Stand that away fans are normally in or the South Stand? And which stand is the Boston Stand (as the stadium map on the website just says North, East, South and West, doesn't have names).

TIA.

Normally the North Stand the away fans are in, the South Stand is the family stand.

Boston is the East.

Excellent, I know where I'm going now. Thanks a lot for that

Must get tickets for this. Do they still have them up at the Theatre of Dreams?

I imagine he will put Reardon and Worrincy in though as it will be their last game for the Bradford Bulls.

Worrincy will no doubt play as he amazingly does every week. Probably shortly before we announce his new 3 year deal......

Thing is, though, it's all in the hands of Mick Potter now. People who know a bit have obviously seen something about the lad seeing as he has been playing in SL for a few years now, and so if despite his performances this season Potter keeps him, the I'll re-reserve my judgment and be happy to watch with interest what Potter does with him. Doesn't strike me as a coach who has blind spots.

I remember being quite enthusiastic when we signed him, billed as perhaps the fastest forward in the league, and it is both a shame and a bit tragic what has become of him in 2010. Wherever he ends up, things can surely only get better?

Whereas I remember being gutted about his signing and declaring on here that he was the worst player in the league. 2 years on, I stick by that statement.

Rather than having that view, I'm more inclined to question the judgement of any coach who thinks he's a Super League quality player. Yes, they know more than me, but in my opinion, I don't see how anyone can rate the guy that highly. If Potter signs him to a new deal, I'm going to lose all the confidence I currently hold in the new coach.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. When Worrincy came, he was nowhere near as bad as he has been this year. He turned a few games for us and scored for fun. But this season, he is a different player. I think a decent coach could turn him around.

I would say in defence, he was every bit as bad. It was just not noticed so much because he was actually offering something in attack and doing well there.

I agree his attack has gone downhill in the last year and a bit, but his defence has always been god awful.
