Could this be a candidate for the BBC match on Saturday?

Doubt it, they'll pick two all SL ties.

I'm looking forward to it.

What's Sheffield support like these days?

Re: Challenge Cup Round 4 : Wed Mar 10, 2010 11:52 am  

I'm right glad we've drawn Wigan, they are one of the poorer sides in the SL and we could possibly beat them, AGAIN.

You're looking at the Super League table upside down.

What's your support like these days on average? Will Brammal Lane imoprove it?

I used to really like Wigan then when we played them I went really off them because of the way some of their fans too the p*ss out of us on a certain day in May in 1998, that didn’t last that long though!!

Then I warmed to them a bit after they got a real pasting by Saints at the Millennium and the chairman had the balls to come into the streets and chat with their fans. Also met up with some fans at the World Cup who were great lads so I have warmed to them even more.

I think they have turned the corner and will finish top 4 this year. They went through a crazy patch when the seemed to release loads of good local lads just to accommodate over the hill foreign mercenaries.

As for the pies, they may be famous for them but do they have them naked? Only Sheffielders have the luxury of Hendos on their pies. And not those Pukka pie things with are like wallpaper paste with gravy granules for flavouring, Crawshaw’s pies made with proper steak from real cows.
