Unfortunately only the Tyne & Wear (home fans) stand will be open at 15:00 for the Storm Bramley game. The East Stand (Saints fans) will not be open until 16:30. This decision is beyond Storm's control.

If Saints fans get there early head for The Schooner pub....

if that's the case why the hell am i promoting a game no one can see?

Marto,

I agree with you on this one but unfortunately Storm have no control over the stadium, that is down to Thunder. They were asked if Saints fans could use the T&W stand for the Storm game then transfer to the open East Stand for the cup game (btw temp is expected to be in the 20's up here tomorrow... be nice in that stand) but that cannot be done.

Sometimes you feel like you are p'ing into the wind!

Its a massive shame for both clubs, if the fans aren't going to be able to see the game anyway other than one stands worth it hardly seems worth going to the trouble of rearranging it

Bang on Gateaux, both clubs have gone out of their way to rearrange the fixture and we at Storm would like to thank Bramley for their co operation in this but as you say may be wasted.

Here's hoping for 2 good games tomorrow and 2 wins for th underdogs
