70,000+ GF crowds?

[GBT2]

Man Utd have announced their intention to extend the capacity of Old Trafford to 75,000.

In two years or less, Super League Grand Final crowds of 70k+ may well be the norm.

 

[Fairleigh Good!]

Not if Wigan get there! :lol:

 

[deluded pom?]

69,999 ?

69,999 ?

Isn't that close to 70,000? Perhaps 'headquarters' might be able to assist.

If warrington got to the GF they wouldnt get as many wigan fans as wigan would get if they got to the GF

Warrington and Sainta fans seem to have this problem with wigan...

I hate Wigan because I support Saints.

Are you telling me you and the rest of the Wigan fans don't hate Saints? :lol:

Local rivalries like this exist everywhere in sport, its natural!

I am so not looking foward to Easter Monday mate, another thrashing for the Bulls, won't be that nice, considering on Thursday, the Rhinos are going to smash us.
Are you coming across to Odsal?

Good to see you've got some confidence in the lads ;-)

well, judging there play against Salford, can you really blame me?
Hopefully, Swann, Hape and Pratt will be back soon, shame about Koe Love.

It wasn't the best against Salford but I think it will be a different story next weekend, to be honest I always worry about Saints games but I still think we'll have too much for Leeds.

It's a pain to have players out already but we've got a decent squad, and I think we'll be able to cope better than most over the season.

too much for Leeds, I think Widnes's defence is really strong, and they cut at them today, let's hope your right!
Do we know when Swann and Pratt are back? I know that Hape won't be fit, as they said it could take up to anything from 8-12 weeks for his arm to heal and it hasn't been that long, unfortunatley.
Are you going to Headingley on Thursday Asim, if so who with?

I've seen Widnes a couple of times this year and there defence really isn't strong! I've just been speaking to a mate who is a Widnes fan and he said that Leeds didn't even need to play well today, Widnes were that bad, they seem to be in a bit of a mess at the mo.

Leeds are a good team but I still think that they lack a bit against the other top teams to drag them to a victory when it's tight, like the 5 games against us last season and the Final Eliminiator against Wigan, we rarely lose a tight game nowadays, so if it's close going into the last bit I'll be quite confident, at the moment I'll be going by myself but I might have convinced a mate to come along.

Do we know when Swann and Pratt are back? I know that Hape won't be fit, as they said it could take up to anything from 8-12 weeks for his arm to heal and it hasn't been that long, unfortunatley.

As far as I know Swann and Pratt still have another few weeks out yet, but nothing much has been said about them so I don't really know, I wouldn't be totally suprised to see Swann back on Thursday, as he was supposed to be out for 6 weeks, and thats just about up.
