Fancy dress anyone?

Well done VikingIncey, Hope there are better days for you down the line, You are a true Viking

Just got a good deal on 4 tickets via rugbyleaguetickets.co.uk

Yeah get the Vikings squad to Dress up as Rugby Players....

After London and Catalns i think we will have the fewest fans there

Well, ill be there. I fully expect a pounding but im very excited. I have never watched in person a a regular season superleague game at which I am a neutral. Always watched on tv. So I can't wait for wakey/cas and the hull derby, nor can I wait to put the upstarts from wireland in their place :8

Hull FC fan here, great to hear that, hope your fans can stay with you and go all the way over the next 2 years. Just dream of those great days in the seventies. with the fans backing you have a chance, without it you have nothing.

Wire have sold their initial allocation and have got more. Should be a great game

I can't go now, working instead. Wont even be able to watch it, as work have got rid of Sky Sports!

I just read your post on the other thread 'A Corner Turned' in response from the cocky Wire fan and I thought ' fair enough to have a dig in reply to that'. Then I read the above statement, which shows you're just as bad. I'd like to know what makes people from 'Wireland' 'upstarts'?

The difference being, my statement is tongue in cheek. Whereas the post I was responding to on the other thread was thick with condescension and a vein of arrogance. Keep it real bro

The problem, 'bro', is that who can tell? Rhetoric is notoriously difficult to use effectively. Perhaps the Wire poster on the other thread is a master of irony, too?

Do you normally get excited when you're expecting a pounding?

Widnes have shown this season that, on their day, they can compete. It's doing it on a more consistent basis that is the challenge. I for one hope you can on Saturday and that the game is a bit more balanced than the last one.

im excited to be attending my first magic weekend. And of course I expect to take a pounding, that does not mean I don't hope my team goes down fighting, im trying to be realistic. If we manage to back up with the same fight we showed against Catalan I will be happy.

I'll be fuming if Widnes win and I miss it.

they wont,so dont worry

well said,you are a true fan

wire have sold over 4,000 tickets up to now for the magic wkend

I got my original statement wrong. *when Widnes win*



PS We have a 100% record at Magic Weekend

Apparently yesterday was the best ever day for ticket sales.Must be down to the weather for the weekend.

1000 widnes tickets sold. Out numbered by Wire at least 4 to 1

its 5 to 1 we have it 5000

The funny thing is the woman said we had sold out 900 day tickets and all but 12 weekend tickets whatever that comes to. The club didn't want to re-order more day tickets for some reason. If we were playing well and winning games I think we'd take between 2-3 K, possibly more going on the amount of fans we took to Blackpool some years. Unfortunately weve been shocking. Fantastic support from Warrington.

You may get a later surge. It's a steal for a season ticket holder, and the Hull derby will be worth paying the single day entry alone. Add in the good weather and, whatever the pessimism about your chances against Wire, it's a great day our for an RL fan. I was in a very cold Cardiff last February, Wire got well beaten by Giants but I still had a great time.
