Imagine if the association football cup final was played between Burnley and stoke. I doubt that would sell out either. It’s the same in any sport. If the big clubs don’t get there it’s difficult to sell

What is the obsession with crowds at finals??!



Too many people sat at home watching the stands and not the pitch.



You worried it won't look good on your TV? Well go sit in the stadium then.

Admission that Catalan are not a big club.

Perfect reply.

Dunno if you're on a wind up or not there, but a Burnley V Stoke FA Cup Final would sell out easily.

As for the game, it's all a bit shambolic. No trains to Euston so I'm going down by bus, but reports suggest roads will be chaos, and I've got an upper tier ticket that nobody at all has contacted me advising me what to do with. My mate emailed the RFL and was told to turn up at the turnstile stated on our tickets and we'll be given replacements. That sounds well organised.



Given that I'm liable to be stuck on the motorway nervously looking at my watch, have no idea what's going to happen at the ground in terms of our tickets, and it's going to be half empty with probably quite a weird atmosphere, I just hope I get there, get in and Wires win. Not looking forward to it in all honesty.

What's the dress code Murphy? Only kidding good to see you back let's hope all the chaos is worth it

Ha, I got banned on the Wires forum years ago.

We've all had our moments it wasn't permanent was it active RL chat always welcome in my book

No idea - hang on, I'll attempt to post now and find out...



*EDIT* Yes, it was permanent!

Weather looks set fair. If Catalans show up like they did in the semi i can't see them losing. It's all on them and whether they freeze on the occasion, any drop off and Warrington are more than good enough to step up and will. Looking forward to it.

Warrington fans are already discussing the homecoming on Facebook

The arrogance.

Now don't be daft. There's a homecoming win or lose (as always). Not one Warrington fan or player is taking Catalans lightly....unlike a certain other team did.

Managed to sell off your final tickets yet?

I won't be going to any homecoming win or lose. I went to the 2010 one and was bored rigid.



PS Rico, you'll be pleased to hear my bus is running fine, and as it's a normal Manchester to London service there's only two scruffs in Wires shirts on it. My mate on a Warrington to Wembley bus has confirmed he hasn't been so fortunate...

Allez les Catalans!

For 4 years running starting in the late 80s early 90s I camped out overnight for a ticket and attended the homecomings along with many many others, in my mind that type of enthusiasm has been lost forever, what a waste

Only minutes to go before kickoff. The tension is overwhelming.

Face turned away, eyes closed, bottled it.

Very harsh on Wire to disallow that try for obstruction.

Sickened by the way the game is going, Warrington constantly trying to milk penalties and succeeding. Faking injuries to get penalties, tjey are make ng catalans look saintly. The sid that eins is the one eho can get away with diving and cheating the most.

Rubbish clear obstruction

Warrington very lucky to be given their try after it looked as though one of their players knocked on attempting to catch the kick

how did thaler get wires try wrong! clearly see the wire player play the ball into the catalan players hand! knock on from them missed and try given!



saying that ruling linehams' try out was harsh!
