Still, Wire should have enough quality to stay up. Should.'"
Yes, that is what we all said, just like we all said it last year.

I always find it quite amusing when fans take everything for granted...Middle 8's whats that?..
They couldn't even beat the whipping boys..

| Visiting London Broncos is a messy business these days so, since I live in West London, I thought it might be useful if I suggested a way to get there.
Firstly perhaps not everyone knows that they have moved since they used to play at The Stoop in Twickenham. They now play at the Trailfinders Sports Club in Ealing. It's not, however, particularly near the middle of Ealing. If you are driving down your Sat Nav will no doubt get you there easily enough but if you are coming down on the train here's my advice.
You will get in to Euston Station and should take the Victoria Line south to Oxford Circus where you should change to the Central Line and go west all the way to Ealing Broadway. The cheapest way to travel on the underground is to use contactless at the barrier.
When you come out of the Ealing Broadway station there are many bus stops spread around in different directions and of course you need to go to the right one. There are different options but to keep it simple cross the road and go up the left side of the road opposite which is called Haven Green and go to bus stop E. There is a red disk on the top of the bus stop with the (in this case E) in white. Catch the E2 bus or the E9 bus and get off at Scotch Common. The buses have electronic boards letting you know what the next stop is.
At Scotch Common walk back a few yards and turn right onto Vallis Way which will take you to the ground. If you want a drink or something to eat turn left instead and walk down Scotch Common to the pub.
Of course there are other ways to do it but I hope this helps. It must be tempting I suppose to stay at home and watch it on TV.

| Anything less that 7 wins is unacceptable. A top 4 wealthy club in this predicament is appalling.

Possibly the problem. Too much wealth can buy who we want, individual quality but don't play as a team like Cas, Wakey

Looking at previous middle 8 tables, 2 losses is ok, 3 and you're in million £ game territory. We need to be winning at least one of the first two. Win both and we're home and dry I'd suggest.'"
Might sound daft but personally I think you're home and dry before a ball has been played. Cannot see you losing any games

Got to say no, but over the last month you do seem to be getting back to form which is what counts right now. Didn't expect the Giants to be in there last year but just started to hit some form before the middle 8's and carried that into the 8's as I'm sure you will do

I hope you're right but I'm not taking anything for granted this season, we could lose to anyone in the 8's given some of our performances we've had in the regular season. We should win them all, but I doubt we will.
