French at home could be Saturday though because of flights?

Who knows, we'll find out soon enough.

Home v Wigan! Bring it on.

Wigan at homeee!!!!!!!!!

YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!

Could this be a candidate for the BBC match on Saturday?

Doubt it, they'll pick two all SL ties.

You'll be needing all that ale when we beat you - again!!

Don't you know that......lightning never strikes in the same place twice

That's ok then - the last time it struck in London!!

I'm looking forward to it.

What's Sheffield support like these days?

I'm right glad we've drawn Wigan, they are one of the poorer sides in the SL and we could possibly beat them, AGAIN.

You're looking at the Super League table upside down.



What's your support like these days on average? Will Brammal Lane imoprove it?

I used to really like Wigan then when we played them I went really off them because of the way some of their fans too the p*ss out of us on a certain day in May in 1998, that didn’t last that long though!!



Then I warmed to them a bit after they got a real pasting by Saints at the Millennium and the chairman had the balls to come into the streets and chat with their fans. Also met up with some fans at the World Cup who were great lads so I have warmed to them even more.

I think they have turned the corner and will finish top 4 this year. They went through a crazy patch when the seemed to release loads of good local lads just to accommodate over the hill foreign mercenaries.

As for the pies, they may be famous for them but do they have them naked? Only Sheffielders have the luxury of Hendos on their pies. And not those Pukka pie things with are like wallpaper paste with gravy granules for flavouring, Crawshaw’s pies made with proper steak from real cows.
(Disclaimer other local butchers are also available)

You're talking to all of them

We are hoping the move to Bramall Lane will vastly improve our attendances, perhaps even double them. Last year we were pretty steady around the 1000-1200 mark. For what it's worth, I think Wigan have as good a chance as anyone as winning super league this season.

What is the best pub to go in for the game lads????? what is there to do around the ground etc

We don't know where it's going to be at yet.

Wigan website says BL at 15:00 on Saturday. AWESOME!!

It is indeed. Great news, and with the Derby the day after, that weekend is going to be EPIC!

I can feel a pre-match drinking session coming on

,Start at the Dev Cat (11:30am) anyone then work yer way in?

Go on then Eagleblade, you've twisted my arm!!

I'll be in the subway by St Mary's church with a pie stall.

This will pay for the Toulouse trip

Wigan site now says 4pm-is it going to gradually get later and later?!

Whatever the kick-off time - the day will get hazier as it goes on
