Not looking good at the moment for our top 4 hopes. Missing out would be a disaster for going forward. PT next season and there goes any slim hope of SL. Club seems like it it slowly winding down into nothingness. Gutting really.

Anyone got any good news??

It's sunny outside and I'm off shift at 7PM, not back in again until Wednesday morning.

What a strange post. My maths might not be too good, but win the rest of our games, we make the top 4 ? Even a defeat in Toulouse we can still do it. Critically we need to beat Fax and Rhinos reserves.

Really think it is that strange??. The way things are going I dont fancy our chances of winning against Fev or Halifax. Of course we are in the mix but right now I would say Toulouse and TWP are clear and safe. Its then down to us, Leigh, Fax and Fev. In a mini league at the moment I cannot see us getting the better of the others. I would love to be proved wrong, just cant see it myself. Fingers crossed lets see how we get on.

Fev have lost both of their half backs, so that's really going to hit them hard.

No-one expected a victory in Toronto, so nothing's changed in the last 24 hours. Rochdale, Swinton, Batley, Barrow should all be victories, then it comes down to the other 3 - Toulouse, Fev and Fax.

It's all to play for, don't go slitting your wrists just yet.

I noticed those Fev injuries, could help us. See they have signed Dwyer though, that's a good move.

Yep we are still in it, I just find LB a bit depressing. We seem to be muddling along in a state of flux. Will we stay FT. Will Hughes pull the plug. Do we even want to be in SL.

Onwards and upwards, I'm bringing 5 newbies Sunday. Lets hope we smash Rochdale

I sponsored the Petone Panthers Kids last month and my sponsors T-shirt arrived today.....only a single XL and it fits 8) ....that's gotta be good news!!
In other news, the chairman of Upper Hutt Tigers saw me DJ'ing at my local bar last week wearing my 2007 Quins RL shirt....he knew straight away that RL stood for Rugby League :D

...oh.....we can and still probably should make the top 4, but the reality is we will be fodder if we do........I reckon 1 more loss and we'll squeeze in.......but we need to beat fev/fax......






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:

Making the top 4 is critical financially to the other 3(To Leigh not making the top 4 could be the end)

I'm unsure what it means to us.






Mac out!

Come on HonkyTonk, two winnable home games back to back - chin up pal, it ain't over til it's over.

Shake your chains to earth like dew

Quin, it could be the end for Leigh if they don’t make top 4? Not sure what you mean! As for us, we could squeeze in, it’s down to what other teams do as much as our results.
