Challenge cup draw : Thu Feb 11, 2021 5:10 pm  

Featherstone rovers away. Toughest tie possible. To be honest with covid, light squads and no gate money from the cup, i don't think an early exit is a bad thing.

That's the spirit!

In all seriousness I'm just looking forward to seeing some rugby again. Be good to see how we go up against you guys as you've one of the strongest squads in the league and our record hasn't been great against you.

Likewise. Mind, if you looked at the two teams when we played Barrow in the Cup last year, you'd have expected us to win by 50+, and in the end we needed a late try to scrape through.
Should be a good game, presume it will be one of the live-streamed BBC ties too..

Agree with Bull Mania. It will be nice to see some rugby again and I don’t think staying in the cup will benefit us much.

Side note - did anyone see the bulls website published fixtures this morning? Seem to have disappeared now. Not sure if they were the real fixtures and someone got to excited

I thought millennium stadium was the name of their sh*t tip?

That would solve it but a man can dream right haha

Plus it specifically says millennium stadium - Cardiff

Yeaa it's actually called millennium community stadium. I worked there few months ago in covid testing team

We really need Broughy pulling the shots very quickly

Hopefully we can catch them off guard before they eventually come good. Get another decent tie against Halifax or Batley!
