Leigh deserve this shot. We've longed (or I have at least) for a gaint killing run, a real good one for the press to lap up, and we might have one. If the can fill the away end and really get it rocking, who knows.

I think we will have too much for them overall, but they will give it a good go and score points! Great cup tie in store

2006 keeps coming into my mind.

I am sure Leigh will give it their all and throw caution to the wind !

Great draw for me personally, just an ickle train journey from Birchwood, and I expect a huge following.

Really hope its the Sunday afternoon game. Thur or Friday night will knock 2k off the visiting fans.

Wire by 28 in a high scoring game (and Higham not to play !!)

If Wires attack is not on song - God knows !!

Lets hope the Wire fans turn out for this one. A great chance to get to Wembley again. If so, a full house isn't out of the question !!

It will not be a full house. I'd guess around 10k if it's the Saturday or Sunday and 3k of those will be from Leigh.

Dissappointing if true !!

Recent experience of cup and play off games suggests it will be true. Plus the pessimistic tendency amongst the Wire fans currently.

It'll be around 9,000 mark I think, with Leigh filling the West Stand.

Our attendances in playoffs and CC have been poor for some years now and the current form will not help get the non-regular fans through the turnstiles.

I understand Leigh have asked for the terrace that runs down the side - which stand is that? Expecting 5000 to travel over after 2500 making the trip to Wakefield and the huge buzz around the place. Great draw for Wire and a huge test for us.

As a rule away fans area allocated the Dallam Lane West? Stand.
But you can stand or sit wherever you like.
No chance will the South stand be allocated for Leigh.
You wouldn't fill it above half anyways.

It holds 10000

You're right Duckie would only be half full

We will be in the West stand I feel. Make it a tenner for everyone !!

We will fill that and overspill into the South.

I remember the following we took in 2001. Wire made a mistake not making it all ticket because the Railway end was too full.

I can still smell the urine now !! LOL Happy days !

No Maurice, the South holds around 5,200 now that one corner has been filled in. You will be in the West which holds 3,200, but if you really do bring 5k I guess some will be in the North (seating) and others in sections of the East (also seating). I would be surprised if they released blocks of South stand tickets.

Ferk me. When did Leigh become the biggest club in the world, demanding we give them our players and taking over our ground? They'll bring a crowd but they won't fill the West Stand, simple as.

Lighten up ghf, a bit of friendly banter is what RL should be about. Do not make it a tenner as it devalues the comp, Sunday and we bring 5000 any other will be a lot less

Amazed you still get bites, Mo. Would have thought it'd be a huge stink to be using Hull KR's bait from 2006!

We almost filled the west stand in 2005 in a 'not so convincing ' wire win. If the capacity is 3200, we will fill it! This game is as local as Wigan. Looking forward to it!

When they started beating all of the part-time teams in the Championship. They now think they can handle it with the big boys

Leigh will bring one of, if not the biggest away followings to ever grace the HJ. They will also at the very least push us close. We've no reason to be cocky. Will be a cracking game and atmosphere and I for one am worried.

Logic would suggest an easy win for Wire.
But this is the cup and anything can happen.
Leigh have shown they are resilient and they have some very good players - Beswick is a very very good player and the halves are more than useful.

It's the tie I wanted as my logic is that it should be easier.
I still think Wire will win but I for one won't be thinking of the semi's until our result is in.

Lots of banter and micky taking from both sides and long may that continue, but let's not read too much into that.

Regarding the halfs, you didn't seem to give Ridyard much of a chance when he was with you guys

I was actually totally unaware he was in our academy until just now.

Indeed but a totally useless namesake of yours was signed.

Are you sure? They only managed 3467 at home in their recent big fixture against Halifax. I do think they will give us a real game though.

Of course they will bring numbers....

This game is their final!
