Firstly it's just my opinion and don't expect everyone to agree with me.secoundly I don't believe having a big following makes us a big club. I think were a average team with a big following. Thirdly regarding how the r.l works do you thinks it's fair we play you again at magic solely based on the fact our clubs take more fans and create a far better atmosphere than a lot of other teams. Nothing to do with league positions of anything actually related to the sport, just purely down to the people who follow them teams. I get the logic but does that make it right?

Great time to play em I reckon , plus surely a bit of winter sun is good!. don't think I can make it mind.

Surely you should know not to start something, it only goes off at a tangent

My bad. Fixture list + Monday morning blues = fans forum rant. Talk of 2 nights on the toon starting to cheer me up now though ( don't get me started again about the 5,30 k.o though )

I would normally agree with you regarding the Magic fixtures, however, this season they are very well thought out:
Salford Red Devils v Widnes Vikings = 10 v 11
Warrington Wolves v Castleford Tigers = 5 v 6
Leeds Rhinos v Wigan Warriors = 1 v 2
Wakefield Wildcats v Catalans Dragons = 7 v 12...the one anomaly
St Helens v Huddersfield Giants = 3 v 4
Hull FC v Hull KR = 8 v 9
Based on last season's ending tables, they're excellent fixtures.

I'd not realised that. Interesting though that we should have played Catalans, and Rovers v Salford, but they've changed ours make it more appealing.

Wasn't aware Wakefield had finished 7th - Well done Brian Smith on an amazing turnaround

Get what your saying but surely you can't look at the league after the super 8 's. Forgive me if I'm wrong but did n t we finish 7th and rovers 10th . At the end of the day the super 8 ' s replaced the old playoffs so the final standings to me are after we have played every team twice plus magic. You can't finish 9th by beating teams not even in the same league. Going by your method it would be
Leeds v saints
Wigan v Hudson
Cas v wire
F.c v cats
Widnes v k.r
Salford v Wakefield
Like I've said in previous posts I get the logic with the Derby and it makes it a more special match but the question I asked is do people think it's fair.

and come to the conclusion the f.c faithful won't mind getting the sh@## end of the stick. Same applies to magic weekend. I understand the reason but seems like the more you give to the r.l the more they take advantage of it instead of trying to get other clubs away support up to our level'"

Read my other posts.bad day = rant. Other people did'nt agree but gave their take on it which is their opinion and I respect that. Thought a forum was about expressing your opion and discussing a subject on something we all have a interest in.

you still under the impression that you take thousands to every game?
as far as i am aware, the RFL don't "pick" when teams play, it's decided by a computer.
and maybe they want the best behaved fans to go there when it's the best of times, for a holiday, that is
