Ah yes that we be because of your god given right obviously

Don't let things like facts get in the way, eh?

Not if you go by the fairplay index

We've been the biggest team in hull for the past 2 seasons but your right facts dont matter.

The best thing is finishing above Hull this year has become a minor consideration in comparison to securing a top four place

oh deary me , you complete fool, you got bored of been the number one team in the city did you, i guess you got bored senseless of having the best full back in your team and Englands number one so you palmed him off on us, you silly boy

Hey don't knock it. We stand to win £5,000 for that

Hudgell could have done with that to foot the bill for policing the "guaranteed sellout" derby game.

Or the electric bill.

I guess we'll have to make do with the income from those extra games.

Assuming you make a profit from them. Hudgell called the Challenge Cup "meaningless" because you don't make any profit until the semi finals. A bit disrespectful to the competition itself if you ask me.

Do they still share the proceeds for the non-GF play off games between all the qualifying teams? IIRC that was the set up with the top 6, not sure if it still applies for the top 8. Might be worth a few bob actually.
