Rugby League fans were baffled by the programme for the 2000 Silk Cut Challenge Cup programme which announced Cougars were 'On the Road to Murrayfield'.

The programme cover showed a rugby ball-shaped 'blimp' hovering over a ground -- but it was not the state of the art 70,000 all-seater stadium which is the home of Scottish Rugby.

The ground featured was Knowlesley Road, home of St Helens with a capacity of 19,100, which is expected to be reduced when council safety officials pay their next visit.

Cougars said the programme cover had been sent to them from rugby league headquarters, but a spokeswoman at

Red Hall said: "I have no idea why this has happened -- it does seem very odd."
