Unless players pull their fingers out
Drawn out of the hat last again, I smell a conspiracy!
Pity it wasn’t at home, we might have stood a chance. Ah well it will save the money of going to Wembley
Why was the date of the draw changed without hardly any notice? It was supposed to be after the challenge cup quarter finals.
Hardest draw possible, Featherstone away is a tough place to go at anytime. Currently top of the league. York and Swinton both struggling with 1 and 0 wins so far respectively. Last time against Sheffield wasn't very enjoyable though anyway.
Fev will be shatting themselves!
We had no chance at Leigh in 2019.
Keep the faith, who knows what the form will be like when the tie is played.

No it wasn't. That would have been the case had any of the Championship teams made the quarter-finals.

Thought you said the club was dead.
I hope we get knocked out. A generation of fans first trip to Wembley should not be in a final played in front 8,000 fans in a 90,000 capacity stadium, playing second fiddle the CC.
Didn't enjoy the final experience one iota last time, so personally not bothered either way.
However, it is the most realistic chance of silverware (even if it isn't a great prestige) and we haven't won anything since 2009.
Isn't the game played before the main event this time ?

Yes, I believe so
Even so, I felt it was extremely condescending, we were playing for the 1895 cup and saints and Wire were playing for the Challenge Cup.
Also, does anyone really have any desire to win this trophy? The Northen Rail cup was good for a day out at Blackpool but nobody really looks back with pride at the cups we won at Blackpool.
Winning the 1895 cup would only distract us from the ultimate long-term goal and that is promotion.
Promotion is light years away, give me some silverware ASAP.
