A lot of work to do.

we just need to survive. It's not about performance at this stage and in truth for an hour the performance was satisfactory. Win and get out of there is the order of the day at the moment.

The next game v KRnt is a vital one. Win and were as good as safe I think.

Lose and squeaky bum time for a few week. i think 4 wins will see us safe and we've 2 on the board already.

what a shambles to be in this position. Fingers crossed we never are again.

I agree. beat rovers and we are about there.

The next game is the one that will set the tone for the rest of the season.

The club know changes were/are needed - I expect significant activity once the status is confirmed.

Being in this mess after 2016 though is unforgiveable, and shows just how much GH took his eye off the ball. I bet the review they did at the end of that year wasn't worth the paper it was written on because the whole club bought into the excuse-athon. 2017 was like an indian summer, where we lucked out in easily the weakest year in SL in the last 20 years. We rode our luck well and took our chances, but it seemingly reinforced the view that the club was in far better shape than it actually was.

I seriously shake my head looking at some of the stuff we've churned out this year. Disninterested, unfit and clueless sums up way too many games, with the culture of the club allowed to completely evaporate as everyone waits for someone else to do something about it. But there is no Sinfield, McGuire or Peacock to grab a game by the scruff of the neck.

On the KR game whilst I'd like us to win, I don't think its must win. The games we have to win are Tornoto, Halifax and Widnes. Win them and we can lose to KR and Salford and stay up. From what I've seen so far we should beat both Toronto and Fax, and hopefully Widnes are shot as well. They look so bad that I wouldn't be surprised to see two Championship teams in the MPG.

You have to think Widnes will win enough to stay up surely?

I was certain they'd stay up. But the league would be better without them.

Why do you think that?

At the moment Salford are the form team, can’t see us or HKR being relegated. Would like to see Toulouse come up. Not certain about Toronto, especially viewing the multi discipline pitch markings in Toronto.

Your issue with Toronto is pitch markings?

Widnes are in trouble. The table looks at this stage to be more like 2016 than 2017, and in 2016 London missed out on the MPG on points difference despite having won 3 games. Its not impossible for Widnes to catch up, but even now the MPG looks about the best they can hope for.

You were certain they would stay up? What on earth makes you say that? They still may of course but their record this year would suggest not.

Players fighting for the jobs, lower league opposition. Just thought they'd have enough to stay up at the start of the qualifiers. They look pretty much done now though.

For the past two seasons a Championship side has been promoted. Widnes were well adrift after the 23 rounds so they were always in great danger.

On a purely selfish basis I hope Widnes are gone mentally, as I think we should (!) be able to beat Tornoto and Halifax. If they're shot we should be able to beat Widnes as well and the MPG could be between two Championship sides.

Widnes haven’t won a game since March, I think they will struggle against all Championship clubs except Halifax. I will be very surprised if Widnes are in Super League 2019, unless we go to 14 teams.

There literally is nothing worse. No wonder RL is dying, etc.
