challenge cup - next round : Mon Apr 06, 2009 7:18 pm  

just checking on the bbc rugby league and it states the next rnd for challenge cup will be on the w/e of 9/10th May. Therefore, looks like the Halifax home game wil be off.

Is this correct for the challenge cup date?

Yes- drawn tomorrow

Hope they don't make us play 'Fax on the following Wednesday, as the rules suggest - we're playing Widnes on the Thursday!!!

Don't be silly. The RFL aren't that badly organised...

Big kick in the nads as far as I'm concerned as, bar Widnes, Halifax was our best hope of a decent crowd this season.
