Yes it's a tough start for Leeds but they were always going to have to play Rovers some time.
I like the western terrace and I like it when the weather's bad, it adds to a sense of community, it feels like a real rugby league crowd in a real rugby league ground.[/quote]
You sound like a proper supporter not one of these modern day moaning minnies that have never heard of a goretex jacket and a bit of soul. Should be a great atmosphere and i'm sure you'll bring plenty over despite it being a friday night.

Probably getting the rubbish teams on Sky Early so when the business end of the season comes they don't have to bother showing Wakefield, Salford, Widnes etc

I'm fairly happy with this fixture to start the 2012 campaign. It will be very reminiscent of 2008 when we started there, and had a shed load of new signings. Despite us losing that day, it was a cracking game and for once it didn't rain, it was just bloody freezing instead.

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.
