Does anyone know how much it is to get in this game, and when tickets will be on sale or will it be pay on gate?

£12, £6 for concessions. Good value compared to £14 at Fev tomorrow. Tickets are already on sale ,but you can also pay on the gate.

Cheers, are kids £6 as well?

Not sure, you could get a Romanian one for that price a couple of years back.

How about parking for this game? Can away fans get into parking at the ground or that school close to the stadium? or do we have to risk the streets?

I think the £ to leu exchange rate killed that offer..

This is the real test as to where we are at as a team for me. All the previous friendlies have been either academy players (York and Fev) or a game of trying out combinations between regular 1st team players and fringe players who will only play should there be a serious injury crisis (Hull game). Justin has indicated we will use the Bradford game as a if it were a superleague game, e.g. strongest available 17 and no unnecessary interchanges etc. If we come out of this game struggling then I will be a little concerned but in reality I
expect to see a return to our gameplan of last year and the combinations starting to click, a solid defensive performance and a stepping up of our intensity and cohesion from the other games so far. The result is not as important as the performance for this game and hopefully no more injuries!!

Is Matt Orford playing in this one?

Ive heard he is so looking forward to that.

No 1st team players at all in either the York or the Doncaster games, not even so called 'fringe' players. If there had been, we might have at least won one or both. Not sure why this was, they both put out their strongest teams.

You must be paying plenty to REAL first teamers then

I think so.

I there radio coverage?

More importantly will Rovers have a team out that shows their intent? Or will it be second string again?

If stories in the press are to be believed then this will be the game that JM will field his strongest possible side and only make interchanges when required instead of just rolling as it has been in the previous games.

More importantly why should Hull fans be bothered?

Interested to see how Bradford go

Joking apart, I actually believe Bradford will be well in the mix this season, a top 5 finish would not surprise me. They started to gel towards the back end of last season, they have recruited well, Orford is class, and Mc Namarra is in the last chance saloon. I think it will be a tough friendly this one.

Undoubtedly our toughest to date

Fraid not.
Drop ins at best.

They have - but Danny Sculthorpe is no Sam Burgess.

It will be but hopefully we will see something like the starting line up for 2010, for the first time this pre season.

Full strength although I do doubt that we will have the full side out for the whole of the 80 minute duration.

Remember that the gate is a shared gate on Thursday due to the Stanley Gene transfer from 2006, so we as a club will be getting half.

Looking forward to this game now, now that Matt Orford definitely making his debut and at £12 for a adult.

Referee: Richard Silverwood

The last time he took charge of this fixture, all hell was let loose as he gave a Super League record 34 penalties (21 of which went to Hull KR).

We lost 20-18 that day.

No squad news as of yet, but I'll post it as soon as it's in the public domain.
