Sounds like a good old moan to me (and clearly to others as well judging by the responses in this thread).'"
You've quoted it and it's still not moaning. A superleague team plays 3 superleague teams and 4 championship teams. A championship team plays 3 championship teams and 4 superleague teams.
That is the disadvantage to championship clubs. Which means that Leigh beating one superleague team doesn't change much. They need to beat another (I think they will) and they are up.
Speaking from our experience last year we beat a superleague club but still didn't earn enough points to finish even fourth where that team hadn't beaten a superleague team.
It's not a moan it's a fact. The table doesn't lie you finish where you deserve to finish.
A bit like this year we've been awful and therefore didn't get into the top four. We didn't deserve to be there. It's ok though because that was enough for Hull KR and Huddersfield to sign all our players so they're their problem next year.

Yeah but if you had beaten all the championship teams you would have had home advantage but you didn't so you can't moan really

Completely missed the point which is a shame. Not as big a shame as your mum missing her period though.

| So assuming 10 points is enough for auto-promotion, and assuming Leigh beat Batley...
.. They effectively have now given themselves 4 million pound games vs Hudds, Hull KR, Leeds (and MPG).
1 win v a SL team should promote them. Easy right?

We've signed ONE of your players. Have Hudds signed 20 odd?

I fully agree, as a supporter who has participated it's scary stuff, as a neutral it's exciting.
But how did you go from this, to this?

And this.

I think you need to chill a little.

Is Hull a little devoid of RL news over the last few years. NFP ended about 14 years ago

That's what happens to some supporters when they achieve R.L. Nirvana, all memories of past adversity appear to disappear on reaching the promised land.
