Now wouldn't that be a beautiful thing Maurice.
Maybe Paul & Jimmy could could get together & make some plans.
By the way Moz, would you agree that both clubs will see 10k + home attendances during the 8's ?
I suspect Leigh having the smaller capacity Stadium could see a total sell out.

| Should either club get to the promised land then a year of struggling in the bottom 4 would no doubt have an impact on the quantity of support. There's a reason why home attendances were lower than 9000 last year.

| The 10k prospects would be the derbies and if the HKR fans travel in their 1000's or not, the 4v5 will be a sell out

| Great game for me. Best of the season by far and a draw was the only fair result.
From our point of view, the improvement over the last few weeks was unreal in what was a genuine 80 minute performance from both sides. Plenty of errors, of course, as you'll always get when the action is so fast and furious, generally well refereed too, with the best ref we've had all year by far, quick PYBs, wow, who knew the game could be played like that?
Wonder how Jimmy is going to treat the final pre-eights game at the Shay - will we get the halves back [if fit to get some game time or will it be the same again?

| I think it's fair that as Lowes has attracted a fair amount of criticism for how things have gone recently he should be fully lauded for his massive influence on the team recently ..... maybe it was a match that mattered more than some others recently, and maybe the middle eights will attract a similar approach. Seems fair he gets the credit.

| I do hope Lowes saw how a game can change by bringing on a fresh hooker. Higham was a huge threat.

| Leigh have certainly had huge column inches in the national media this year, plus the Wire CC game had the highest tv ratings of any game so far this season - I 'friend' within the BBC said it was higher than some RU 6 nations games!! (2 million at points)

| The Bulls have been in a few "big" games over the past few years but I'd never say that they were the most talked about RL team in the country and I don't know why I'd ever need to? What is the purpose of making such a statement regardless of how ludicrous it is?

| Leigh have had a good couple of years and are going well as a club. All credit to them but I think some of the fans are developing delusions of grandeur.

Well if that is a supporting statement its full of Cognitive bias. Depends what media a person chooses to read. Then again i accept Leigh's world is so much more beautiful and enchanting than the rest of RL

| Quote Ste100Centurions="Ste100Centurions"Completely agree with your final statement @Bull Mania
In fact a crowd of 9181 today, does this set a new Championship record in the modern RL era, I think it does & so a big rap to both sets of fans, showing some SL clubs the hunger for RL from both Clubs supporters.
As an aside, I would put this to anyone, if we were still operating under the licence system, I believe *maybe naively* that the plug would be pulled on Wakefield & they would be replaced with either Leigh or Bradford.
My reasoning, well empty or largely empty stadia such as seen at Wakefield & Salford does not make good TV, good atmospheres or a good advertisement for RL, especially for the top tier of SL.
'"
May as well puts Huddersfield in that category too!!
