We are banking on a thing called past presidence to save us.
I wouldn't say we banked on Gateshead going bust as we were more than prepared to have a season in C1, but you've got to take your chances, haven't you? Let's not forget that 'Fax would have been relegated had the same system been in place in 2004.

| I've heard what Matt Calland has said post match, Michael Steele isn't seemingly worried either, perhaps they have a point, perhaps it only matters that you do the business at the end of the season, for this reason I shall now only be bothered to spend any money or support Halifax RLFC at the end of the season, I won't bother to travel to away games, I wont try and encourage friends to come down, I'll just look for the odd free ticket at the end of the season or watch a final should we make it to one.
I'll pay golf or see my family, because clearly they matter, whereas what Halifax RLFC do doesn't matter to the coach and board week in week out.

| Can't see it being Widnes but I can see the bottom two being York and Toulouse.
Now why should they NOT relegate Toulouse?
They got into this league by default anyway really.

Described by Paul Cullen as 'phase 1', how many others are for the chop mid-season in phase 2, can't see this announcement doing anything for the Vikings confidence or team morale.

I don't think the Widnes club give a stuff. They've got bigger things to worry about next season. However, treat da championship wiv disrespect and they'll be pulling Harlequins style crowds next year. I don't wish them ill but it would show up the daft criteria selection policy for what it is - an on-field irrelevancy. I've said all along - you don't want to be going up to SL with a stench of failure and mediocrity hanging around and for Widnes it's been there three years. I really do think it will impact their start in SL. You need a winning mentality and they just don't have it. Sure - moneybags O'Connor can spend spend spend but the stench will be in and around the club for some time. The RFL's selection criteria has allowed that to happen.

You'll do for me.

Baffled me now
Anyway im not going to get into a tit for tat argument, Ill claim the tat position this time though as you most clearly are the other. Please dont reply as i shall not, i find you a boring little man who probably wears Halifax Pyjamas and still has a photo of a girl he stalked 10 years ago

I'm not sure what the intended reaction is? I'm not sure this is a warning shot across anyone's bow.
These players for whatever reason have been deemed not good enough and they have been cut from the 1st team squad to make way for new players under the salary cap.
Gerrard and Ford haven't really figured. Netherton looked like he wasn't going to figure all that much. Makes sense to remove them from the wage bill if you aren't going to play them.
Thackray is confusing granted.
