Results were perfect tonight with Wire & Leeds wins.

But still we need to do the business ourselves.

Wigan have won 11 straight away games including the 0-46 slaughter of our neighbours. So that is the measure of our task. It's massive.

But with a bit of luck and the bounce of the ball, just maybe.

I think Hull will put in a massive display in their last game against Leeds but still lose. That's because Hull can play well and still not score whereas Leeds can be under the cosh for ages and then score loads in a few minutes. Hull's only chance is if Leeds win the Challenge Cup, maybe then despite their best efforts they will deep down feel they have achieved their goals for this season anyway.

All of which won't matter to us if we don't get something off Wigan. 100% intensity must be the order of the day from minutes 1-80.






I couldn't hear the robin sing if not for you.

I would expect that every game from my team.
(Not saying we always get it. :| )

OOI why was the Leeds result perfect for you? It means you are no chance of fourth.

I'm guessing it's a slight chance of a home tie against the black and whites that's behind the theory. Unlikely but you never know.






DANNY LOCKWOOD - LEAGUE WEEKLY (18-5-09)


I'M SURE THERE IS NO CORRELATION BETWEEN THE FACT THAT THE FRONT RUNNERS FOR THE 2009 MEDIA WHINGING AWARD ARE FROM GATESHEAD AND HULL FC, FORMERLY THE B*ST*RD-TWINS OF ONE OF RUGBY LEAGUE'S LOUSIER IDEAS.

We never had a chance of 4th anyway, despite what Mullan kept babling in the local comic. Huddersfield could have snatched 4th if Leeds had lost but not now. 6th if we win tomorrow, 7th if We lose. Either way its a play off derby.
:SHOOT:

Dont think your last game will be an easy win, they might need to win to get in the play offs.

I doubt it I believe we have a big chance to beat Leeds at the KC....However if not I would not be too bothered as I would love a derby play-off!

Totally agree with that, it is a tough place to go as many teams have found out this season.

TBH i can't see either team winning their last match.

But i do think Rovers will win their first ever play off game :wink:






Motto of the week -

It is the way of the weak to secretly bleat to those in authority rather than fight their own battles.

I agree it is a slight chance because we need to get something off Wigan and that will be very difficult indeed.

But if we do then the chance becomes more than slight.

It would only need Hull to lose to Leeds & us to beat Crusaders, again neither of those results by any means certain but definitely possible.
