| Gallant effort dudes, that is that as they say, you should probably have gone a couple of weeks ago though as saints gave you 4 free points, a reason for losing at Wembley for them as I thought as a consequence were probably not match fit , anyway back on topic thanks for being one of the big surprises, as a rovers fan I remember shaking my friends hand and thinking there would be no chance that my club would go down after you got promotion as I thought Toronto would have a good tilt but it’s taken until today to know we are safe.

| Battled hard, but the have not gone yet just means Leeds are safe, next week will decide it.
Would love them to build over next 2-3 years but unless we scrap P&R they will probably go down.
Strong argument for franchise system coming back.

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

We flipping aren't, were you not at the Salford game?
If London go down it will be a travesty, but sport isn't fair, it's harsh.

You're a Rovers fan and you think it's all over now?! We haven't won back to back all year, and just 2 weeks ago it was all doom and gloom. As much as yesterday was significant as is today, and we SHOULD win next week, you cant write London off just yet. How complacent, especially considering 3 years ago we were 8 points up with less than 2 mins to go in a relegation decider.

My first thought also.. Anyone taking Fridays game as a given is deluded.
Still within Rovers to stuff it up.

What a ridiculous and complacent remark. We most certainly are not safe. We are 2 points ahead of London and have to play them next Friday. Make no mistake, they'll be up for it as they'll probably see it as been in the last chance saloon. If they win, it would leave us equal on points with one game each to play. Us against an in form Salford and London up against a hit and miss Wakefield. If London beat us and then Wakefield, and we lose against Salford at the same time, London would then stay up and we would be relegated. Its still all to play for, in fact I would say next Friday is just as important if not more so than yesterdays game, especially given the fact that we haven't won back to back games for god knows how long. Next Friday is the big one, I just hope the players don't have your sense of complacency when they enter the field, otherwise they'll come unstuck.

There's four teams not safe yet, 22 points is the magic number. The game between the two of you next week is the most important game of the round

| 2 games left for London v 2 of their relegation rivals. They need to win them both and rely on either Hull KR or Wakefield losing their other game.
However that’s hardly unlikely that Wakefield will lose away at Warrington or that Hull KR will lose to Salford.
You would imagine Huddersfield will lose to Saints but beat Catalans so they may be safe.

I have spent all my life being pessimistic and have been absolutely pilloried for it, cut me some slack if for once I show confidence in the club.

| London MUST win both games now. It's unlikely, but still possible. If they lose next week, that's it.
The only way they will stay up with one win is if they put a significant score on Rovers, and then Rovers get beat convincingly the week after.

| If London beat hkr by 32 points, they go above hkr.
If London’s beat hkr by less than this, it will come down to who can lose by the least on the last day.
The arrogance of the OP is a little premature.

I agree
London's fete is still in their own hands and if they can beat Rovers next week, they will take masses of confidence and belief into their last game at Wakefield.
The only thing that changed this weekend is that Huddersfield to a huge leap towards safety, especially with the white flag waving French side for their last home fixture and that Leeds are definitely safe but, there is still plenty in the relegation battle.
The KR v London game is just HHHHHHHHHUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
