"We genuinely have some bad knocks, we're not resting anybody this week. Witt (calf) Clubb (knee), Robertson (hip and knee).
"Soward has a back injury, he's travelled from Australia, he's travelled to France and we've had a long trip to Sheffield because of the bus journey. He's done a real lot of travelling, he's stiffened up during the week, given his workload and what he's been asked to come in and do his back was un-trainable today, so there was no way given the number of miles he's travelled there was no way he could compete in this game safely.
"The first thing we said after the Sheffield game was that we'll do this game right. It looks like to everybody that we've rested a heap of players, we haven't, they couldn't play."

This is indisputably a better pack than Widnes can offer.
But Widnes have much more to offer from the backs, particularly Hanbury and Mellor. No Ah Van though ![Smile icon_smile.gif](images/smilies//icon_smile.gif)

| First game of the season and we expected London to beat Widnes reasonably comfortably.
Fast forward a few months and it now looks like London will be offered about +10 to be competitive.
Dismal.

1649_1338292262.jpg I have followed the LONDON CLUB since I was in my teensl even though born in St Helens and still live nearby and went to the first game at Fulham, also Big West Ham Supporter:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1649.jpg |

| Last year when we were so Dismal! everyone was calling for coach to be sacked! only few of this time around, is it because he is an old boy and managed to get us a few wins at the end of last season, if Rea was a man, he would have walked by now and said I can't do it!

Black Backgrounds/Zoot.gif Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently.

| Quote: BroncOnIon "Whose decision do you think it is, TR's or JS's?'"
Probably TR's - with no relegation to bother about, blow the league and keep our key player(s) fit for our one faint chance of glory. Oh, and I'd be more than happy never to see Clubb play for us again regardless of the consequences!
