I don't receive a copy so I can't say what was included or edited out.
Look forward to seeing you all again next season if TO13 are still in the Championship.'"
Good to meet you too.
It was a very well written report, unbiased as you say.

| Quote: sanjunien "the try scorer on half time was actually announced as Alex Rowe - it didn't seem right to me so I asked Q after who confirmed that it was in fact he that scored,a fact later confirmed by Rory Bromley who insists he was tackled in the air by Q who then touched down.
Don't know if TO13 will be in the Championship next year,that's in the hands of the RFL - but the BOD at Toulouse isn't very confident.
regarding the attendance - the 'official' attendance was stated as 1200 and we were told to quote that figure but the real attendance was about 650 IMO
as you say,a good post match craic and well done to all the Eagles fans who made the trip - you lot are a credit to the club and to RL
For me Toulouse add to the competitions interest, if only the results and attendances were better it would be certainty. I can only assume its the costs of sending ten teams out to France a year and sending Toulouse over to England ten times a year. Air fares and petrol prices have shot up recently and it all adds up.
Thank you to all and i wish you well for the future if its in NL1 or not. Ill be wearing my new TO13 polo at bowling tonight.

Fuel prices must be a big worry, I agree though that it adds interest.
As we discussed if there was only a way that a visit to Toulouse could be combined with a Perpignan trip in the same weekend. The infrastructure is there in terms of transport and hotels etc.

FYI - Toulouse pay their own flights & expenses up to the uk and still only receive the same from the RFL as the others.The cost for the RFL is the travel arrangements for the other teams coming down to Toulouse.Flights are booked early doors so they all get the lowest rates,the same with the hotels etc
The problems at TO13 are complex - if you look on www.sang-et-or.net you will see by the match reports etc a little of what's happening at the club.
Happy bowling !

| Cracking result really,Away in France with 3 key players (Wood,Cording & Crookes missing)add to that Mcdonald,Mills,Nice two week break til Widnes away,A massive game and a game that should show how far we have progressed,Need a win and that would really give confidence of a top four finish,Would be nice to beat a top side,Couple of signings would be nice and then the dual reg players wouldnt be as vital,Hopfully Bergin keeps his shirt as Mills kept is when he perfomed and scored,6 wins out of 6 against Tolouse,Could be undefeated if rumour is they wont be here next year,Hope they are though.

| Once again a brilliant weekend, probably the best yet, (despite the fact I'm now having to use TWO walking sticks.) The game was pretty ordinary, but as has been said, these are the games you need to win. Many thanks to everyone to helped me out when my knees went on Saturday night about ten minutes from the end and throughout the rest of the weekend. Saturday night in the Melting Pot was amazing, and helped me forget my pain (and how to balance.) If Toulouse go back to the French League next year, I reckon we ought to go out for a game when the Eagles aren't playing. If they are still in the Championship, bring it on!!!

I didnt know that, point accepted. Still the costs must be pretty high. Its not overly fair that the RFL will gladly subsidise the Cheating Crusaders and not Toulouse, and theyre all for expension arent they? (dont get me started on this). I for one would miss them if they drop out.
Bowling went well thanks, the polo attracted a lot of interest and questions. I played well tonight but the lad on the lane next knocked in a 300 so that took the attention off me a bit.

glad you had a good weekend - most people do when they experience Toulouse - it is a great city,completely sports daft so a successful TO13 set up would be great - the potential is there but unfortunately the management & coaching abilities aren't.A decent coach would transform this bunch of players into a fair side.
Sorry to hear about the knees - what's your problem ?,cos' mine are beginning to get bad and working is becoming more and more tricky.
Did you stand all through the game ? if so,next year if you come,i'll get you a place in one of the stands.
