There's one season and it ends on 30th November, when the players' contracts end.

Anyone who thinks otherwise is kidding themselves.

You'll be telling me that the Challenge Cup rounds are all separate seasons next.

There's no getting through to some people.

nor are they angels and every rl club has idiots

I might plaster your forum with constant "We're Champions" threads.

Maybe Halifax should just hand over that 100k winners cheque and that would be an end of it all

Out of all of this, as a non-smoker, rugby league is and always will be a working man/womans game, you work hard all week you look forward to watching your team at the weekend, maybe with a pint or not, put if you smoke, you smoke, jees I have been at some games and thought I could do with a fag or a drink, STRESS!, you should not expect a person to sit through 2 hours (by the time you get in to go home) without a fag or a drink (in case it means they want a fag), it ruins their personal experinec/day out, if there was a smoking shed/area outside every stand then there would probably less likely hood of people "sneaking" a crafty fag, or the toilets stinking of fag smoke. Each to there own I say, cater for all needs.
