Re the title and If we are drawing historical analogies for me and thousands of others it will be more akin to the relief of Mafeking because if Mafeking was relieved, it won't be half as much as we all are, come the final hooter. Indeed with our constant tooing and froing to the high court with Deggsie, Jordans enrolment at Slimming World and our new coach digging an escape tunnel back to the airport, its going to be a long cold winter before our first pre season game against Goole Vikings

Maybe grix will quote some Shakespeare Henry V before the game in a rallying war cry? Hopefully abdul plays for them and herman runs him ragged

He's bigger than Herman at the minute, might knock him over

Houghton and Carlos should only play if they are fit, they shouldn't be played just for sentiment. We don't want to be two subs down early on.

Warrington only need to win by 16 against London and while I can't imagine they will take their foot off the gas completely, I also don't see them posting as big a score as they did at Huddersfield. Does give us a bit of an advantage to know what score we can lose by and not be bottom, though can't understand why our game was picked to be moved as the only one on Saturday

Herman is mobile though

Think Charles is playing at full back for the academy tonight, so may be not included for the first team at weekend.

I hope you're right. The poor kid has been flogged to death and is nowhere near ready for this level week in, week out.

Played 17 games this year, which is far too much, let down by the club, should have brought in a more experienced half once Reynolds left.

You're invisible now you got no secrets to conceal.

What are you talking about. Are you not well?

I've rang for a doctor.

We few, we happy few! We band of buggered.

Think we’ll show up. Same way I think I’ll win the euromillions.

He likes to quote esoteric lyrics from an artist he idolises who hasn't had any success for many years.

He has been on a steep decline ever since. Despite this he still has a large and loyal following even though he continues to produce embarrassingly bad performances.

You don't have to look to far to draw an analogy.

Try this one for size, Zimmerman, see how it fits?

'The fiddler now plays for the countess who's [ipretending[/i to [icare[/i for him,
saying "show me someone who's not a [iparasite[/i and I'll go out and say a prayer for him" '

Does it ring true, or is it a little too close to home for you, given your owners hitherto undiscovered love for the sport of rugby league!!

Smoke and mirrors, Dylan's sustained a career out of magic tricks intended to fool the eye.
Like I say, close to home?
