Oldham fans' ticket allocation sold out

Roughyeds are regarded by Rovers, according to their website, as a 'potential banana skin'

The 100 tickets allocated to Oldham fans for tonight's Betfred Championship game at Featherstone (8pm kick-off) have all been sold.

They went on sale last night, online via the Rovers website and with the approval of the RFL and of Wakefield Council, on a first come, first served basis.

Rovers have now told Roughyeds the allocation has all gone.

Roughyeds are regarded by Rovers, according to their website, as a 'potential banana skin'.

Said Rovers captain James Lockwood, who will be making his 250th career appearance: "This is no different to any other game.

"In the Championship any team can win any time, so we'll be preparing for every game this season in exactly the same way."
