Featherstone Rovers away. I can't speyk!

Not all bad news then

Great response.

Now then Ian!

I couldn’t resist Pete , should be a good game , we are at Crufts that week end , other wise I’d like to go , I love going to Fev ,the Top House.

Well after tonight's display it looks like Fax are going to the dogs too!

If we had a reserves team I’d put them out for this game. It’s a game we will lose and it will be hard and tough and possibly pick up injuries. We need all our concentration and motivation on the league after last nights display at Widnes. The CC is a distraction we can do without this season.

That's another income stream gone unfortunately

Season over unfortunately...

Well on the face of it, it would be great to have a good cup run and it's a shame we didn't get a home draw against easier opposition to start us off but that's just the luck of the draw and if we can't stack up against the stiffer challenges then we would be falling at the first real test hurdle come what may whoever it was.

Now here's the dilemma food for thought bit.

If we were performing to a better standard and maybe in with a chance of going a bit further but not much chance of actually winning it, when so many clubs (especially this year) have put more emphasis on the league over the Challenge Cup what would / should we do?

Focus on the league, the Cup or take each game, league and Cup as they come?

In any event would the amount of progress in the Challenge Cup determine that the season was over after just week 4?
