| Tough game but with a full side out all pulling for that Wembley dream then I think we can win it well.
If we get through Salford at home in the next round would be ideal

However you may view the RFL unfortunately they are the governing body of the RL
AND
Widnes clearly meet the criteria better than anyone else for now because they won the place they have in the bag for next years SL!! end of story really
and as a team they will be a harder team to beat than those before

they don't actually meet the criteria as it was originally drafted, financially they are in a perilous position of rekying on a single individual, they have also been in administration in the last 3 years.
Halifax should have got it, but then I have a feeling we'll see the RFL fudge this whole thing somehow.

Go on then I'll get reeled in... If we are apparently reliant on one man how do Fax go any better with crowds that are about 40% less? Administration was late 2007 so no, not in past 3 years. You do know Halifax didn't have a reserve side until this season don't you? Never mind an academy!

I do, and I also know the barriers in place from the RFL.
As I said, it wouldn't surprise me if Widnes and Fax were in SL next season.

What barriers? Not sure there is any problems for a reserve side. Even York have one.
There were issues about academy sides but that's because sides wanted an 18's without reserves so no clear progression etc etc.

| The game is being played on the Saturday at 3pm - why??? Surely Sunday would have been the best option if Widnes wanted to maximise the gate?? RL does itself no favours at times....

Just been confirmed Saints playing Sunday which is also the final day of Prem season... Surely Saturday at least as good for crowd numbers?
We also play Barrow the Thursday after so would prefer extra days rest I'm sure.

| I think you'll get a smaller following from Hull FC on a Saturday than you would on a Sunday. How come Saints get preference? I thought it was your stadium?

Who said they did? My posts above would suggest Saturday works out best for Widnes!

| Only kidding - that's why I put the smiley on the end If Saturday is best for Widnes then that's fine. I was just making a point that they might have had a better following from Hull had it been a Sunday afternoon

We are used to away teams not bringing many to the Stobart, so that wont matter to us.

| Why would we take more on a Saturday? I'm sure our following will be better than anything else they have had this season.

For those of you who don't understand "betting odds", if you put £20 on Hull FC to win the Cup at 16/1....you lose £20....
