Is that when they stopped clubs arranging their own fixtures over the holiday period and forced them to have one at home and one away?

I remember when Oldham were quite regular visitors at Headingley on New Years Day and there was always a mention in the program thanking them for agreeing to be the visitors on that date.

Another victroy for the Takes today. I think they might be safe. That's some achievement. Unless I have misunderstood the Yawnion league points scoring, I think one more point will guarantee it.

And they're due to play bottom-of-the-league Worcester next week, which given the RU league system, must be a thirteen pointer at least ?

As far as I can tell, they have two games left.

Can't you get a maximum of three points for a win (2+ 1 bonus point)?

They are 6 clear of the Saucy lot, so any point from now will see them safe?

Maximum five points for a win (4 + 1 bonus for four tries or more). A 4 point win or a draw will see them safe.

I thought it was 4 points for a win 2 for a draw and 1 for the bonus point.

Ah. Cheers welovebluey.

very basically, a win next week will see Tykes stay up. And if Sale do anything other than lose badly, it will send Worcester down. Even if sale do lose badly, Worcester need to win, score 4 tries and make up 40 points points difference on Sale.

I do hope the RU team stay up this year.

If only to annoy so many of the Cyclops who post on here

Meh

I hate the sport, but they gets huge bagfulls of money from Sky. Whilst that's happening, might as well keep[ them at HQ so we can get some benefit from it.

fantastic news, for a team who at the start of the season were pretty much a new team they have done very well

and the money they bring to Headingley is brilliant, so well done

Can you enlighten us?

indeed, each game will bring more corporate events before the game and plus added fans will help boost local economy
