We have absolutely nothing to fear against York or anyone else for that matter yes they beat us at their end and we beat beat them at our end so clearly nothing much between the 2 teams.
Whether a team loses by 1 or 20 it is still a loss so that point is irrelevant.
Yes we have lost Buster a big blow without doubt but that gives someone else a chance to step up and sign.
A question for the alleged York fan Rhino Roy strange the name Rhino is used for a York fan but then again.........Now that your fans have abused your main money man and his family to the point him trying to sell his stake in the club what next for you?
For some reason unknown to me there is a view amongst a few fans from various clubs borne out by discussions this weekend in London of York fans having a massive chip on their shoulders about something could be delusions of grandeur?

I dont think York have anything to fear having beaten you once and lost by a point at yours, and since then their team much faster/stronger and I think you will be in for a suprise.
i was just pointing out that we didn't struggle as you seemed to think we did, use your energy focusing on York instead of on the cougars.

I agree that we can win, but I also feel we have to enter these matches in the right frame of mind and not one of being effortlessly invincible. Being invincible does not just happen it takes work and concentration.
A few facts and figures.
i. York Nilled London Skolars, LS put 10 past us.
ii. York put 64 past LS, we put 28.
I just feel we need to be careful not to get too carried away. We can win, but only with hard graft right across the pitch for 85 minutes.
Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.

Was at your game against London on friday, boy you were poor.
Another fact,
We put 84 past London in London, you managed what!! 28 and 22 of them were in the first half.
But no doubt, as allways you will try and raise your game.
To be quite honest what York fans think of us does not interest me in the slightest and as another pointed out concentrate on your own team.
Whilst mentioning statistics who has the most points in total between the 2 teams the answer is the Cougars its this that is most important not who scored what against London and other various teams.
At the end of the day assuming York beat Swinton next week we have the pleasure of showing York exactly why we have finished above them, I do however expect it to a close game.

Given our home form this season, i'm not overly concerned about York or Oldham for that matter.
We've only lost 2 games at Cougar Park all season, Dewsbury and Castleford, and we more than held our own for almost an hour against both these superior sides.
So long as we don't allow David March (amongst others) to drag us in to an 80 minute slug-fest we'll win by at least 10 points.
Well, I could be stupid, or I could be a retard, as you so succintly put it, somehow I don't think anyone can be both at once. It's one or the other isn't it?
But when apart from your well argued point of view as demonstrated above, the only person bigging up York is 'Rhino Roy' and the objective views of a number of Cougar supporters, I think it's a case of QED where my earlier comments were concerned.
Cougars have finmished second over an entire season and have played the same teams as everyone else. In fact they've finished in guaranteed second with most teams still having a game in hand.
That does actually mean that over the season they've been better than all other teams except Dewsbury - that's a fact.
Now we enter a different phase and a different type of game, a knock out competition. But whatever is achieved or not by Cougars, it will be on the basis of a club standing on its own two feet, not through the assistance and support of a Super League club - how would York be performing without that?

I'd rather be supporting a team battling the Skolars for the wooden spoon every season than somebody else's feeder club.
