| Well, it still hangs in the balance, especially if Leigh win again next weekend. I'm thinking it's going to come down to the last round of fixtures, with us needing London to go and do a job over Fax, and us to beat Fev away. Proper squeaky bum time stuff.

| I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't see it happening.

| My main worry is we won't make it, my second worry is we'll scrape it and it'll be trumpeted as an achievement.

| Even if we'd won today, we wouldn't have made the 4. I admire the sheer Black Knight level bloody-mindedness of those vainly clinging to the delusion that we might still do it, good on yer!

| I'm thinking the worse now. Definitely buying a season ticket next year. Can't wait already.

I'm shocked you have said this with others around us in table with there fixtures still to play.

Have at you! The Black Knight always triumphs.

| Our destiny and our plums are in our hands, London's hands and Featherstone's hands, it would be bloody typical to excitedly limp into the Top 4.
Anyroad, I'da thunk this was a perfic chance for a spreadsheet FA.

Well if we'd won today, we'd only be 1 point off a top four place with both Batley and Halifax having to play one or both of London and Leigh as well as both playing Featherstone so either of them losing a game would give us a chance of making the top 4.
After losing today, it's a much, much harder task, especially as the outcome is not in our hands solely.

[quote="Steve":1xb0p6sn] Dislike Leigh with a passion, but they are a million miles ahead of any other club in this league, a sad fact. [/quote:1xb0p6sn]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_24148.jpg |

| After seeing you 3 times vs Leigh this season I really don't understand how you are where you are!
A draw at Odsal and 2 late Leigh winners at Summer Bash then again at the LSV.
There hasn't looked much between the sides at all and yet Leigh are 13 points ahead in the League Table.
Is it just a case of Bradford raising there game when they play Leigh? As I think you would have beaten pretty much anybody else in the Championship on today's showing.

| Well against my better judgement I decided to brave the match today. Frustratingly a huge improvement on what we've seen for the vast majority of this season. Why couldn't we have shown that much effort last week or indeed a little more often throughout the season?
Lacked quality in attack on their line and blew a few good positions in that 2nd half to win the match. Probably deserved at least a point from that performance but I guess that's what you get for not having halfbacks. Scrambling defence was good in the 2nd half and Moss looks like he will be a great player for us.
Relying on a lot of luck to make the top 4 now, mathematically still possible but realistically we need a lot of results to fall our way.

Take a tip from a Clown, never walk into a Lions cage backwards, there is still hope,remember April Ashley.

| Let's not get carried away, it was a better performance not a good performance. Yet again decision making at key moments let us down, composure when it mattered dribbled away - oh for a play maker. Unfortunately l also have to question why Rohan persists with Addy in his customary role, trying too hard or simply not good enough - the latter on today's performance. Unusually as others have improved Addy has got worse, also don't think fully fit today. This season could have been so much more with a little application and direction. Shield games look likely....the bell begins to toll.
