'Great defence, always wins games, y'only have to score one more point than them. If tha does, tha'll win, if that doesn't tha'll lose, learn from it, more than the win last week.'. Peter Fox, 1980.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_75666.jpg



Quote: Steph Curry "Donnyman will claim its embarassing and they should be replaced in the challenge cup by Bradford'"

Quote: dboy "It's a maximum of 4, with a further bye in the following round.

It's likely that it's not even a discussion point - cup competitions usually have very clear rules on what happens in the event of a club not fulfilling a fixture - I haven't looked them up, but I expect byes...unless there's an appetite to reinstate the teams that lost in the previous round.

But that includes lower league clubs too, so not an elegant solution.

Expect byes.'"


You'd think so wouldn't you but this is Rugby League! d040.gif d040.gif d040.gif

Don’t see the point in the Challenge Cup this year - whoever’s going to win it will only have an asterisk next to the their name.

Thought that was funny you drawing Leeds again, good luck in the game pal

Quote: Fartown58 "Speaking from a personal point of view, I was there that night when we were well beaten 18-0 so don't feel aggrieved at all. In fact looking at the future fixtures think I am glad we don't have extra challenge cup games to play.'"


I was there too mate, and the coach had asked the Fartown players to make a big effort for Ken. They literally gave the grand old lad nothing. I bet he'd refuse his club being given a second chance.

Anyway if they looked like winning it with a second chance the other losers may want that as well. As you say "No chance" let them get him to a Grand Final.....

If Catalan win the cup, will they get an asterix?
