Personally I think we'd take over 20k this time.

Previously we have struggled to get 10k at Wilderspool, whereas for the first game at the HJ there were 13k+ Wire fans.

Teams have really boosted their junior supporters numbers, and I think this, coupled with the number of people who would come out of the woodwork would lead to a huge amount of fans attending.

Count me in Tache, that sounds great

29th of August (bugger) my sister is getting married


can we win it next year instead ?

i was going to say don't bother going but you never know when you may need a kidney

I remember 1990 well - what a day - and I had a new Wire shell suit



I can remember stopping at the services on the way home and an old fella asked me by how much the yellow and blue team won by. I said they hadn't the red team won. He was genuinely surprised as he said the Wire lot seemed to having so much fun, chanting and laughing!

Oh to see Dessie face up to Iro again. He had to jump 2 ft to reach his face with his fist

Although i enjoyed 1990, i enjoyed the train in 1998 on the way home with all the Pies after they lost to Sheffield. We must have been so annoying in our yellow comedy wigs and we hate wigan wrote on foreheads

If we get there i will be traveling all the way from Spain to see the lads walk out and there finest hour in Primrose and Blue, Lets hope we can get there this once, 19 years is a long time so come on lads


WIRE WIRE WIRE

Went to Wembley in 1974 for the win against Featherstone and again in 1975 when we lost to Widnes. Don't remember much about the second one as the Stella was very tasty at the Conservative club in Wembley before and after the match.
'74 was a brilliant weekend, obviuously.

Stella Artois, in a Connie Club, in 1974? Are you sure you hadn't been grabbed by the Grunhalle's?!?!?!?

I book the day off every year but to no avail.

Been to a couple of the Cardiff finals, and been to a couple at the old ground including 1990. However, I won't be going to Old Trafford, or the new other place [i(not going to name the 'W' place')[/i until Wire get there. Somehow I feel it will 'dilute' the occasion if I have been before.

STELLA ARTOIS was first introduced into the UK in 1930 however only became popular in the 1990's when it was marketed as a draught beer by the major breweries. according to 118 118!

on a personal note i have no recolection of stella being on draught pre all day sunday drinking which was when sad people like me used to go to the conservative club on a sunday when normal pubs closed at 3 oclock in the afternoon and did not reopen 'till 7pm! twas greenhalls as Eddie stated, grunhalle lager and copperhead cider bleughh!

Will the club issue final tickets to season ticket holders first. How many season ticket holders have we got at the club as it won't leave much with only an allocation of 15k?

this is all a bit premature



but yes season ticket holders, imo about 6,000 will get first refusal c/o voucher in season ticket

leaving 9,000 for general allocation few days later

Haha be funny if we got the GF this years then
