I am guessing that some of the local amateur clubs and perhaps the RL supporters will run transport but I'll open with what Nick Settle has put on the club Facebook site. "As you will know Blackpool Panthers have got through to the last 16 of the Challenge Cup. We have drawn the Super League champions Leeds Rhinos on the 8th or 9th of May. The club wants to take as much support as we can and show our colours. We are looking at putting on a coach to Leeds. If anyone is interested please contact me on nick@panthersrlfc.net / 07599702888 / 01253 298 299 Prices will be dependent on up take, but should be £10-15 per person for travel." What I want is a coach that gets us to Leeds in time for a few bevvies beforehand and perhaps a stop for chips and ale on the way back too.

Don't the Supporters Club still run coaches to away games? They'd have been going to Hunslet that day anyway so if a coach is already booked it's not much of a big deal to switch it to Headingley.

I suggest Nick speaks to the SC first, no point doubling up.

Oh and whilst he's at it, change the website photo heading, we beat Whitehaven, not London Skolars ffs !!

(great photos though, well done whoever took them )

Turns out Blackpool RL Supporters i.e. Mike Leeming is sorting the organisation with Nick so all singing off the same hymn sheet etc.

"If anyone is interested in going, there are three ways to book on the coach:
* OPTION ONE: By post Mike Leeming, 15 Salthouse Ave, Blackpool, FY1 5EN. Please make Cheques payable to “Blackpool Rugby League Supporters Club”
* OPTION TWO: Come down to the match day office at the next home game against Doncaster RLFC on Friday 23rd April 8.00pm Kick Off.
* OPTION THREE: Come down to Panthers Head Office at the Colonial Hotel, 465-467 The Promenade, Blackpool, FY4 1AR.
The price for the return coach trip is £15 per-person.
This will be a first come first serve offer.
If you would like any more information please contact either
* Mike Leeming on 01253 752893 or
* Nick Settle 01253 298299."

i think i'll be taking the car so i can pick the_cow up on the way and also reckon it'll be cheaper than £15 each in my car.

will everyone be taking to the scoreboard terrace?
