Correct you are, sir. Pretty sure the Saints away in '04 was in the 4th round, but I am occasionally wrong.

14th February 1998, Castleford at Headingley in Graham Murray's first game in charge.

Happy re-union dinner boys.

Guess what, that was in the 5th round as well after defeating Workington in the 4th.

You should be getting used to this by now.

One of my favourites was the time we went out of the Challenge Cup even before the first round in the 1989/90 season.

IIRC Bramley and Hunslet went further than Leeds that season.

Against a Paul harkin inspired Bradford in the preliminary round IIRC.

II also RC wasn't it Paul Medley's first game back at Headingley and, much to his delight didn't he score?
