| Well done to the team. Not an easy place to pick up points. Sounds like Leyland
and Latu did well. Situ kicks well on 5th but whilst still better than Coates he can’t hit a cow’s backside with a banjo on conversions. LB management may well want get someone in who can - really important part of the game.

| Congrats to your boys, not easy up there. Who knows how valuable that point may prove at the end of the season.

Hopefully by then our Twitter feed will have acknowledged the result.

| Well done lads, didn't expect anything from the game but could be a vital point come end of the season. Need to find a goal kicker & quick though.

To misquote the late Meatloaf: one out of two ain’t bad. Or to put it another way I think we are going to have to accept that that’s about as good as we can expect and I’d rather the team turned up than the back room staff.

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 |

| It was such a long period, before the first point was scores, then quickly we were 12-0 down, and I thought to myself, why travel? but credit to come back to a draw was a superb result, yes a drop goal would have been nice!
Time to leave services after a break.

At least the team haven't given up.......but the back office shambles continues.
The ability to string a sentence together and hit "tweet" seems to be below the CEO. The head of commercial was happily front and centre earlier in the week with his picture adorning Twitter and the club site, but nowhere to be seen on matchday......and where has our Ipswich town loving sports media student got to?
Nice to have a point, but it is looking increasingly like a 3 horse race for 2 relegation spots.
Speaking of horses.....the broncos tweeted about a red nose day event at a west Acton? School with Buck in attendance......so maybe the nags will be back on Sunday......although buying a ticket could be interesting as the banner is still broken on the club site after 14 days.

Imagine the April LB management wash up meeting.
Employee A: The attendance at the Bradford game was unexpectedly poor.
Employee B: that will be those miserable RL fans forum armchair experts and their negative energy putting everyone off.
Employee C: I suppose we could have sorted out the link allowing people to buy tickets. We did have 3 weeks.
Employee A: Here’s your P45. Get out.

| A draw - which was better than expected - until you remember before covid (the 2019 season) we beat 8x champions Leeds, 5x champions St Helens twice, reigning champions Wigan and the then Challenge Cup holders Catalans Dragons away in Perpignan. A draw doesn't really cut it.

| When you think back, the last time we played Barrow at Craven Park in 2018, we absolutely spanked them, 72-6.
It makes todays draw, pale into insignificance. However remarkable it may be.

In the context of this season, we need to defeat Dewsbury twice and Workington twice to have a chance of staying up. This point is an additional bonus, but I realistically see us needing 12 points to avoid the drop......Dewsbury have already beaten Sheffield and I will repeat my earlier prediction that Sheffield away will be our first win of the season. We need to target Sheffield home and away, as well as Whitehaven away.....Newcastle blow hot and cold, so we may snipe 2 points from them too......as I say, 12 points should be enough
In the context of previous seasons, Hughes is pulling out of the club and he has as much as said that in 5 years time they need to be paying their own way. We may not agree with or see any logic in his decisions, but the cold hard fact is that a 1k average gate can just about afford this squad and if we want a better quality of Rugby/Squad, then the club need to work harder on attracting fans because we are lightyears away from either defeating St Helens or sticking 70+ points on Barrow at present.
