What's eddie on about saying halifax looking to tick a box on sunday for 2015? If I remember pal we stil have a chance ya stupid prat!

yeah, i thought we have still got an outside chance for 2012 yet

I wouldnt worry about what Eddie has to say has his opinion doesnt count plus the bloke cant see past his nose...so fear not.

What a . A chance to tick a box? Then what? Get steamrollered by fat men in committees.

As each day passes I hate these people more and more.

he did say fax still in the mix for 2012 after saying above.

He isn't a prat, he's actually perfectly right. Because we haven't been awarded a license yet or in SL we still have to compete to 'tick the box' for 2015 which we will do if we win tomorrow.

I doubt many people will be d about it if we win. We win tick the box for 2015 then get a license for 2012. If we don't get a license for 2012 at least we have ticked the box and can really concentrate on getting the weaker points of our license up to scratch so that by 2014 the grim reapers of Red Hall have no choice but to let us up.

If we tick the box for tomorrow then we can do 'a Widnes', ie. not be d to do anything on the pitch for the next 3 years.

beware of Toulouse being 'invited' to apply. which can be done now they will be back in the Elite League.



if by 'not be d' you mean spend three years getting every other aspect of our application to such a point it was impossible to refuse us, then yes you can spend three years not being d.

BTW, thats exactly what you need to spend the next three years doing, if ou didnt need to doo that you would have been chosen over us this time round.

Watch this space, do you really think sides going up and down through Franchising is going to continue? I can quite easily see clubs putting in a lot of effort to be told the goal posts have moved radically.
We have gone from P&R to a 3 year option to kick someone out, Clubs will just sqeal like pigs and want more time and try anything to hang onto Sky Cash, Widnes were the first, and maybe the last.
You need to remember we 'supposedly' passed the criteria. The gap will now widen further based on many factors which are against those below the Ivory towers.
Next we'll see 5 yr reviews, with lots of clauses to kick people out if they become unfashionable and dont meet 'The Vision'
All those pundits on tv know which side their breads buttered, i expect nothing but towing the Sky and Red Hall party line.

Rubbish. Absolute rubbish.

There's one thing that will change our destiny. One thing.

"getting every other other aspect"? Getting a Steve O'Connor. That's the difference. Money and a backer.

On tonights commentary Crusaders v Cas im sure Eddie said about Widnes " Welcome to the Family" ie Super League
