Take Hunt Off Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Can’t really understand why even the friendly v WBA attracted more fans ? perhaps some of our fans think it’s the papa johns tinpot cup. We managed 6k ish v Salford last season in same competition, well at least I’m looking forward to seeing more of our new signings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you might be right with regards to which cup competition it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was local Id be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leyther_Matt Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 A few hundred spare in the corner of ESL so the club have got away with only the one area but as earlier I’m convinced a lot of people are thinking it’s the Pizza Cup tonight. Certainly a lot more than 200 from Barrow. Could have bought 6 tickets for what bastard Pizza Hut cost me before the game. Comfortable performance so far. Lovely strike from Ashworth. All very promising from the fringe players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leyther_Matt Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Just now, radcliffe white said: Why would people think it’s pizza cup I don’t get that I think the ‘one stand open’ approach and the fact we seemed to play dozens of Pizza Cup games last year might have tricked a few. Though I suppose we shouldn’t pretend these games have even been much bigger than 5k-6k, even when we were in the Prem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
