in response to TV Boy's comment about our No 6 looking about 16, thats because he is, Josh Ward from Leigh Miners 18's, been playing in Leigh 18's too.

I have to say John when I think about this subject and the organisation of it I have a Regie Perrin moment and the spitting image scenes of Thatchers cabinet come into my mind.

I have Regie Perrin moments all the time these days were RL is concerned.Its a good job i have a club to follow cos i'd have walked away from the pro game quite some time ago otherwise.

Please don't go and trample on my beliefs. Think before you write, because there are those among us who still believe in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy!

In the real world, I do believe that the RFL set out to at least pay lip service to the wishes of the Championship clubs. Once the impracticalities kicked in, I think they should have pulled the plug. Still, looking on the bright side, we could have had to 'do a Sheffield' and travel to France - and it's only six months till Santa Claus comes again!!

The game was pointless. We could have used the free weekend to play our game in hand against keighley.

Now we're going to have to squeeze it in somewhere.
