| Watched Hull against Les cats yesterday and their forwards got on top of les Cats. They also had Houghton missing.
I fear they will be too big and strong for us upfront so I don't see a win next week.

| I'd also add MCs message earlier in the season.
4,000 paying full price is better than 8,000 when most are on freebies.

| Shouldn't even be talking about the 8.
Can we survive? Barring any last minute reprieve for Bradford, it certainly appears so; the highest aspiration we should have is to finish the season with some momentum, hang on to the spine of the team for next year, and for once have a proper off-season, instead of a total rebuild.

| One game and one week at a time. Tim Smith has come back and it's clicked again although it helps with players like Tautai and Moore with the grunt up front!

| We are only 5 points off 8th and IF (and I know it's a BIG IF), we beat the 3 clubs that are just above us, at home, then it is possible.
I know that the euphoria of beating the Mighty Wigan will subside but, it is possible, albeit unlikely.
Widnes are on the slide and both Hull clubs are inconsistent.
Without being reckless, we should aim for the highest possible finish.
"if you aim for the stars.............." etc

| I'd take 11th just so it can't be said that we stayed up because of Bradfords points deduction

| Want to finish with enough points to make Bradfords points deduction irrelevant. Dont want to hear every week that we only stayed up because Bradford had a points deduction. Would also like 1 or 2 extra teams between us and Bradford.

I have been attending BV 44 yrs. No way were there only 4079 there today. The puzzled silence followed by quiet laughter said it all. 5000 to 5500 at least. Don't know what is going on but I would bet my house there were NOT 4000 in BV today

This kind of thing should not hang over a competition; its a farce but the best way to deal with it is make it irrelevant. I think Bradford are highly unwise to go down this route. There is every chance that we will get 3 more wins and quite a chance we will get a couple more. Even with all 6 back that leaves them needing 11 - 15 points with points diff accounted for, from an available 20..can they really think that is on the way they are playing? I think the words...let it go spring to mind

| I think in previous seasons an 8th place finish needs 24-26 points so that would take another 6 wins but its a strange season this year so owt could happen

Ill take those odds if your offering Charlie? I could do with moving! When people have been used to inflated crowds in the past couple of years naturally when they see the stands this season and equate it to a past figure they will laugh. With the differentiation in crowds from this to the last couple of seasons but seeing similar amounts of faces in the ground evokes a question. The question is which crowds/regime do you trust the most? I don't believe we have got on a sound financial footing this season without being honest. There is no reason for Michael or the board to lie.
Capacity crowds are when people are shoulder to shoulder with the same room either side as when seated. When people spread out it looks fuller than what it is! Believe me the board wish they were announcing 6-7k crowds!!

| I don't think we can. I'd just like to see the same effort and determination like we saw yesterday in every game until the end of the season now.

Agreed Willzay, that's all I ask, 100% effort against everyone we play. The results, like yesterday, will then take care of themselves. People are happy again around Wakefield, plenty of shirts on display and lookiing forwards, not backwards and up not down, good stuff.
