At the start of 2018 not may London fans would have backed us for anything other than maybe 4th. We started well and were there or there about's, had a mid season slump and then finished strongly and secured 2nd, which was an epic achievement.
Still, not many of us would have seen us as anything other than make-weights and 6th or 7th was the expectation.....until we won away at Widnes. The we started to believe and even though Leeds rolled over (how bad is that team BTW) against Toronto and we had to travel, we all believed that we had the beating of them......and we did.
2018 has been the most exciting season at London since the run to the play-offs in 2003 and we are now in Super Leage on merit. After 2 decades of "imaginary" extra payments and not being there on "merit', we are in the top tier of the northern hemisphere and in the top 28 clubs in the world. We may play out of a wedding venue, in front of 1,000 fans and only because of the benevolence of our owner, but we don't care. We may get hammered each week and go straight back down, but we don't care.....we may stay up due to Salford going belly up....we don't care....we had a great season in 2018 and will reap the rewards in 2019....if you've not visited Trailfinders then I highly recommend it as it's a great little venue that will rock if filled to its 3,200 capacity.......
....and face facts, at least we'll bring more away fans to Caravan Park than the mancpack would have
