Just had a thought.If London had beaten TWP like they should have, they would be on 8 points too,and will play Halifax today and probable win by a healthy score, which would still potentially put us in the brown stuff. That Toulouse result has really stuffed us up.

Widnes have only won 4 games in the whole of 2018. The only reason to be worried is our own performance and the score difference needed.
Take every point offered. Kick all penalties, go early on drop goals in the first half if their goal line defence looks good. Starve them of posession. Kicking practice is also needed for the MPG.

Toronto beat London easily

Gareth Bloody O'Brien again.
We all know what happens now, Rovers by twelve.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

And Kieran Dixon to do a reverse-Peacock in the MPG?
Ah, good, I’ve reached bottom again.
So, stuff it, we’ve got two chances. Let’s feckin’ rip into it. Sometimes life poops on you, and sometimes that poopy lightning does strike twice. But if we go out biting and scratching, then there’s nowt more anyone can ask.
And, whatever happens, it’s nearly over. And there’s no 8s in 2019, which is at this stage a huge mercy.

I'm furious about what's going to happen already.
I've time tabled large sections of fury in my diary over the next week.
I know what will happen, 16:50 tomorrow, I'm queing in the club shop for an MPG ticket.
Why, why did my Mum and Dad do this to me?

Harsh.
Newly promoted we won more games than 2 other established Super League clubs and have won 4/6 in the qualifiers most probably 5/7.
Not world beating I'd certainly acknowledge that, the most appropriate word I can think of is satisfactory ...for a club newly promoted.
It's been a battle but getting results against Wigan, Hull, Huddersfield twice, Catalans, Leeds, Castleford...I'd say we have earned another go in Super League especially since our possible replacements Toronto couldn't beat us on their own plastic.
