Fax were in a similar position when were relegated from SL all them years ago with good support etc.
Promotion and relegation was scrapped and we were cut adrift, we stayed down and slowly but surely the crowds went down the sponsering went down.
That's one of the reasons SL knows if HKR are to return it has to be soon, a couple of years go by and it could be too late.
SL has taken a hit with crowds over the last couple of years with losing Bradford.
Now HKR and your supporters who travel away not to mention the 2 Hull derbys and the Magic Weekend match.
Not good for the game if the game is just SL.
You can see why they want you back and all they have to do is alter the structure and if the minor clubs who in Lenagans stated comments will never be good enough pick up the tab who cares.
Nothing to do with you mate but you can see why the rest of us feel less than impressed.

I think as long as we give a good account for ourselves in the 8's we can't really complain. In 2015 we won 2 and lost 5, finishing 6th. Leigh, who walked the Championship rounds won 1 and lost 7... Maybe it could happen to KR this time round? Who knows, but its exciting times!

I know it is going to be hard for us come on we will be playing 6 full time teams and we have never beaten a SL club since we came down to the Championship, my hope is that we beat Fev finally at home and put that hoodoo to bed plus we catch either Catalans or Widnes on an off day, it would be good to have a decent start in the Qualifiers and not have our toughest games up front.
My hope is that we win at least 2 games but you never know with the togetherness of the team we may surprise a few teams and there is no pressure on us but lots on the rest maybe Fev apart, hopefully we won't do like Fev last year and lose all 7 games.

I'm not saying we'll go up, but I do believe we'll top the regular season without getting out of second gear. Sadly, the season starts come the 8s.


Apologies Moxi it wasn't your shirt or your house, you obviously stayed in first gear last sunday!


Come on the Fax

.

Early chance for revenge Moxi my friend....strange seeing Ranieri interviewed at your ground last night..

Our fixtures look pretty decent.

First up Hull KR which is very good for us and should be targeted as a winnable game followed by Widnes at home. Warrington away after that before we get a week off before facing Catalans at home. Two tough away trips to London and Leigh both games we could put in a good showing and then the final game Fev at home which in reality good be the basement battle so a 50K game.

We must go out to ruin KR's promotion dream that first game.

Our 1 Sky game............Warrington away.

The last 3 wins in the regular season can only do their confidence good and the lads will be raring to go.
A couple of weeks off will give some of the injuries that they were playing with a chance to heal and to prepare well so we should hit the ground running.
Just a lift to be in it.

Halifax should be targeting that Hull KR opener as a Grand Final.

That game could get you off to a flying start and possibly ruin Hull KR's confidence and give all the other teams something to think about.

You guys are there on merit and should be confident of doing really well.

win the first 2 and who knows

And Iff you implode as I expect you will then what

It will be very interesting a week on Sunday though.
