aye, you're getting the hang of it now! When you're as cynical and as bitter as I am excluded from SL for long enough, you kind of repeat the mantra oft enogh! "Fairness and the RF are well and truly estranged"!!

No I didn't was at Wigan supporting my own team!

Excluded from SL? I thought it was because fev have never won anything to qualify for SL

I am speaking generically! i.e. Barrow 2009, Fax 2010! ?2011!
Are you saying those clubs shouldn't have the opportunity to get into SL??

No??? Fev are again top of the league. They may or may not win the GF! But even if I was the holder of last weeks winning ticket - the RFL wouldn't let Fev in! The (RFL) direction is to take the game elsewhere! Beyond west yorks!
When Trinity are playing in a league where all clubs are 'excluded' from SL, regardless of their successes, you will feel similar matey!! Trust me, this long held bitterness towards SL and all it stands for is heading your way anytime soon!!
Becuase the hope of a return is removed, the apathy amongst the fans spreads like a cancer until you look round at an empty stadium where you can recognise almost everybody and all you are left with are your memories!!
That's what happens to rugby at our level when you 'exclude' teams and remove that hope that perhaps, just perhaps this season your team might just do it!!

I did say ONE of?

Don't be too hard on yourselves, you played fairly decent in some of the games.

The one big difference between expansion over here and in Aus is that Rugby League in Aus is their No1 sport,Having been there it is a Rugby League fans dream come true,Not a sniff of Football in the papers and everyone is Rugby League mad and would go and watch any 2 teams throwing around an oval ball.
We CANNOT simply follow the Aussies with everything they do!!!
For gods sake we cannot even compete with them at all nowadays at International level so that proves we gone backwards and Super League hasn't progressed anywhere near the NRL so why do everything that they do?

As stated elsewhere decision is being made before the season ends (stupidly IMO as it devalues the remainder of the season). At the point the decision is made we are not bottom and actually have more wins than 2 other teams (both of whom have protected status)

If the decision goes against us it will be quite demoralising for the players and fans and we may well end up bottom, but I said at the start of the season that I was confident we would not finish bottom (even with the points deduction) and I stand by that statement. Come back in September and we'll see who is right!!

Were you the dog?

Aye well, fwiw, Leeds Hull was dour.

It would be watching it through Comet's window
