Really think we've a chance of going there and winning to reach the semi. Should have our full strength squad fit and back playing by then - hopefully with a good few wins under the belt. Come on Cougars!!

Need to sort out some training runs on their sort of artificial pitch though.

I'm not sure I share your optimism about winning over there, they're a very useful team. When those first four balls came out to leave us and the Dulls still in the pot I was convinced we were going to get them. Never mind, we'll just have to wait for next season's league matches. To be honest Widnes away would have been at the bottom of my wish list before the draw started. I still hope to make it down to support the lads though.

I remember a cup game at Naughton Park in the 1960s when you fellas came as underdogs ( think Alan Kellet was your captain then) and gave us a good hiding. Can't see that happening this time, but you never know. Hope you all enjoy your day in any case.

Was a bit annoyed with the draw at first but oh well let's just do it.

Is this really going to be on tv?
