9th is a possibility.......Rochdale did it last year with 15 points!






JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.

There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT:

Looks like we will be struggling at hooker for a while. Cunningham has had further surgery on his groin, so I guess will be out for a while. :(

Plummy, if disagreeing with other people posts and countering with my own opinion is slagging people off then am guilty. But I always thought that’s what a forum was about.
Slagging off usually means harsh insulting or abusive manner! I never insult I am never abusive, harsh maybe you could say. So in that sense have never slagged anyone off.
But back on thread, easter is quite often a turning point of lots of clubs, think it is for london this year.
I stand by my predictions on the results we have coming, call it negative if you wish, I see it as reality. The positive side of it, I think we will still finish 4th or 5th, at a push 3rd. Why is 4th a positive? Pundits had us struggling from the start, they were proved wrong, with the squad we have, with lack of depth 4th is our level compared to other teams in the league. To finish above that we really needed at least 2 points over easter.
I hope am proved wrong but at the minute we are a long way behind Toulouse and Leigh, especially away from home, and both games against Toulouse are away.

What’s the injury cunny had? Inguinal hernia? If so that hurts.

Have you guys got many forwards to come back from injury? Looked like a lightweight side yesterday.

Also, seems strange to move Sammut to 9. Appreciate it must be to cover injury, but would've thought you'd want him on the pitch for the whole 80.

We have a couple but when they will return is anyone's guess and I don't think they will make much difference to the size of the pack.

As for Sammut, no back up for Cunningham, only an inexperienced youngster. It's all a bit of a mess really :(

Fourth may rapidly be beyond you. Leigh and Halifax are both in form. Granted, Leigh have some very difficult fixtures coming up, but should they win those, they should go above you. Your only chance looks like Toulouse or Featherstone having a bad run, and neither seems to be likely to do that.

Well Toulouse blew up towards the end of last season didn't they?

Probably after we took their unbeaten home record off them - although I'm happy to be corrected on that one.

From a selfish (Leigh) point of view, I would love Toronto, Toulouse and Featherstone all to have a bad run - then things would get really interesting!! :wink:
