Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us.

I'll be hionest I am happy that we are still in the mix.
If you would have said to me 10 weeks ago that we were aiming for 8th spot with 4 games to go then I would have laughed, Lestyn has done a great job turngin it round and there is definately something there.
A few salford fans need to get things into respective imho, on my way out of the wigan game (granted our worse performance for a while) there were a few moaning that we were same old salford.
We were playing at the DW after an embarrasing defeat. If we were Leeds/ saints/ hudds I think they would have had a battering as well imo.
Also it is wigan away, no matter how good we will get wigan away is always going to be a tough ask!!

Unless the RFL demonstrate their usual lack of clarity,parity and favouritism for Super League clubs above the rest of the sport,then I think a reasonable precedent was set [url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_league/8258924.stmby this decision[/url
I think you will find coverage of it in the usual place - not as many involved,but far more than enough.

Your link also has another precedent: the fine handed out to Cas.
I think a lot will depend on the reaction of Widnes to these "fans". Many are identifiable from the photographs in the public domain and a couple have further mired themselves by moronic boasting on media sites. If Widnes follw the example of Hull, then I cannot see a ban being even contemplated by the RL.
Furthermore, I'd rather get into the top 8 by our efforts not by the actions of a few prats.
There are a lot of 'what if' moments this season which could already have seen us securing a top 8 spot. Nevertheless, it bodes well for next season that we'll be in mix again.
