Sorry RD but that is pure rubbish. To get into the position to qualify for SL final (let alone win it) you have to win a lot more games than you would to win the CC.
Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.

You have a right to disagree, but it’s a fact.

Dunno. There’s only 11 teams so theoretically, win just over half your games would get you into 4th. Either way, that has nothing to do with what I said.

In the words of the wiseman “whatever”.

Well, we avoid the 6th round which means that little bit of extra fuel in the tank come the business end of the season. No question of either the Wire or Saints not giving it their all in the quarter final. If we win then we're through to the semi with at least one of the big teams out, if we lose then we have two more weeks off in October. All in all I'm pretty happy with the draw.
It's going to be very interesting to see what happens in Sunday's two games. Short pre-season, strange conditions, new rules - a big learning experience for all.

So that means you have to win 13 games and not 2 to win a SL title.
Thanks for answering your own question, while making yourself look daft at the same time.
(And before you try to wriggle out of it, the SL comp and GF comp are the same thing.)
And so you aim towards the sky, And you'll rise high today, Fly away, Far away, Far from pain....

i have still got my programme from the " 4 or so minute" game at Knowsley Road played in the depths of winter all those years ago AND the programme issued for the replay. That's my pension sorted then.
