How did they know that the two best teams in the league were more likely to produce a good game?

Is that a trick question? Don't tell me you're serious...






If London is Athens, Yorkshire is Sparta, a tougher community and proud of it.

Something to do with a glass ball [rugby-shaped?] I believe!

They should have gotten Ganson to put on a blindfold and blow his whistle at a random time with a light flashing over the fixtures still remaining in the comp. The ref blows, the light stops and the highlighted fixture is thus chosen.

It would have been like food and drink to Ganson too, as he refs his matches in a very similar fashion.

There was an article in The Times the other week about CC games between SL and National League opposition. Was it 92-4, results wise? It was something like that, which gives you the most likely reason why the Cas-Fax fixture was overlooked for an all SL tie.

Why didn't they show us vs Rochdale or Us vs Quins in last round or infact any game in the first three rounds? Because they assumed would not be a draw for the TV audience.

Would they have shown Hudds V Fax? I doubt it.

that might be true but that stat doesnt tell you how many of the games have been decided by just a couple of points.

tune in on thursday night v donny and fax will show you why we should be considered for bbc coverage.

why did they put hull kr v warrington on a couple of years ago then when kr were in our league.
