We have drawn St's at home...



Funny thing and St's fans on their forum noticed this as well, but when they draw our name out and the next ball was taken out of the pot there was a long delay for they said Saint Helens name. Rest of draw went ok..





Thats the only three games with SL clubs drawn together so maybe a TV game



Full Draw is:
Halifax v Batley.

Castleford or Barrow v Hunslet.

Dewsbury or Bradford v Leigh.

Harlequins v St Helens.

Crusaders v Catalans Dragons.

Huddersfield v Warrington or Featherstone.

Leeds v Blackpool.

Widnes or Lezignan v Wigan.

Ties to be played on the weekend of May 7-9.

When was the last time we got a bloody National League team in the draw????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Northerners keep fixing it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Come on be positive Quins owe saints from last week. Hope the ref is not Ganson.

Bugger

Ok windy one i will be more positive then i was on St's site, t was the shock of the draw and the alleged fix.



but you were right we should have owned St's if the bounce of the ball had gone our way (not including forward pass'es). And perhaps they will underestimate us in this one

you dont really think theyll do that do you?

I can dream mate.

.....

.......

Gutted. If we had to draw a top side we could have done with it being away too so we could earn some money.

Certainly not a fix on Saints behalf would much rather have Blackpool than you guys. No disrespect to the seasiders intended. Guessing it will be a Sunday game if Quins union are playing at home on the Saturday?. Don't really fancy another double header on the Saturday

The Union lot are at home to Sale on the Sat. So should mean we be playing on the Sunday. (please god i hope they dont try and make it a double header)

How much are you going to rip us off for to attend this match?

Or do we get a £10 rebate to compensate for the £25 rip off?

crusaders and cats to be on the tv for one of the games i reckon and then prob Hudds wire

agree with you about not making it a double header, should be no reason to, bbc woukld not want a late aft game

still moaning? things a bit tight in Merthyr? Dont bother coming, Im sure there's something very exciting happening in the *rse end of Wales that weekend.

It still isn't the cost It's the principle of charging more for some teams than others and does the "not bother coming" apply to ALL Saints supporters.

At least I can see the Brecon Beacons from my house and am not on a flight path from Heathrow!! maybe that is the *rse end of outer London!!

Yes that's right, south west London is a terrible place to live, especially compared to the lovely, affluent, crime and drug free Merthyr Tydfil. My train ticket to every home game costs me £17. Stop moaning its boring.

Not as boring as your comments.
FYI I lived in SW london for 20 years and where I live now is 10 times more pleasant and I'm sure you love living in and around Hounslow and district or are you from the Shepherds Bush area they are totally drug free of course aren't they?? in fact I suspect there is more crime in your area than mine.

You think a train ticket from Shepherds Bush or Hounslow to Twickenham costs £17? I can 100% guarantee there is less crime where I live than Merthyr.

Why don't you just give it a bloody rest? You're an embarrassment.

On to the subject of the fifth round ...

I really wanted Blackpool away! Not because Blackpool is a great place (it's a dive) but because I could relax and enjoy the game, knowing that ultimately we would beat them. Alas, it is not to be, and now I have to make the long journey to the big smoke only to be eating my fingers until the final whistle, bearing in mind our recent lucky escape from defeat at the Stoop.

But we'll be Pennyless for this one.

Fev could have done us a BIG favour at the H-J today.

What do you mean?

warrington wont let penny play in cup games thats good has he scores agaist us all the time

Wire Huddersfield will be one live game and either the Crusaders game...or Widnes (if they win) v Wigan.
If we do get a tv slot, we need to fill the ground......national exposure is an opportunity

Without Penny playing for us I don't tink we have anything to threaten them with.

Cup games are cheaper anyway, stop moaning you tight git



The RFL should be pushing the Beeb to show this.
Obviously Hudds v Wire will be shown because of last years final
