And the RFL would get their wish

Looking forward to the game - it was in our power to avoid being involved but we didn't deliver, so it's right that Bradford have the opportunity to take our place in SL.

As for the game itself - really difficult to call; Bradford will be a different prospect to when we took them apart a few weeks ago and given that our campaign has proved us to be no more than a decent Championship side, it should be fairly evenly matched.

The RFL have put themselves in a difficult position.They have a vested interest in their tenants being promoted back to SL. Whoever they appoint as ref will have to be seen to be even handed. This situation should be pointed out before the game to exert some pressure.

Give over. But Thaler or Silverwood would be my pick if I could choose.

Any other ground and I would say I prefer to play away but your so far away from the action at Odsal it neutralises any atmosphere away fans can create.
Being at home also gives better odds to back the Bulls for a straight win. Might put the whole of my Betfred account on the Bulls as I will be so elated if we win I won't give a toss.

And that's said without any arrogance, we can't afford to take our eye off the ball for one minute.

We can no longer take the moral high ground all that matters is staying in SL. You can impose what you want after the game because taking the moral high ground is not more important than winning a game. If we are relegated we will never get back because other clubs will have bigger playing budgets, higher crowds than we can currently muster.
The team must be the strongest both physically and mentally for the pressures of the play off game.

we should of beaten St helens in the third game but had the taken away with a try that was outrageously disallowed, even the commentary team said it was a try

I hate to say this but I expect so awkward moments

This, presumably, being the same RFL that got their wish when the Bulls got relegated? How does that work?

Christ - let's not start all that again...

Maybe we're living in totally different times now, but as I recall, personally, that last season before we were promoted to Superleague by beating Fev in the final at the Galpharm, was one of the most enjoyable seasons to be watching Trinity for a long time previous and a longer time since.. We were winning matches, there was a great spirit between team and fans. At the end of each match Garen Casey (team captain) even used to gather the lads together and sing the Trinity team song along with the fans. Without being too negative ask yourselves, which would be preferable, another struggling season similar to the last ten or so years, or one like those halcyon years in 1996?

Unfortunately relegation will probably mean going part time so losing the majority of the current squad including the promising youngsters from the academy. I too fear another season of blow out defeats. I don't mind watching Trinity lose but i hate it when the game is alredy lost after 20 minutes. Playing in the championship would no doubt mean we won more games but as London have found just because you were a super league side doesnt mean it is easy to get back. The best we can hope is that we win the million pound game and with some new faces good coaching and much better conditioning we will be more competitive next season
