  1. Fair result, the best team won, reflected in the score. Frantic last few minutes and I did warn it wasn't all over.
  2. How much have/are /will Wigan invest? Are sweeter grapes better than sour grapes?
  3. 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1-
  4. We're really looking forward to this. Nothing compares to the thrill, excitement, hope, expectations ,highs and lows of actually being at Wembley watching your team deliver a winning performance. However, as my team won't be there, I'll get a more balanced and analytical experience watching on TV, freed from the constraints of extreme partizanship. May the best team win.... As long as its not from Yorkshire.
  5. So you've not looked at the house in Harry's link but feel you should comment on it. You should. It's a £950k house with room for 10 cars, but the agents puff gives it a Council Tax band A (the lowest) and an EPC rating of E, one of the worst. Hope that helps you.
  6. Head says HKR. Heart says Wigan. Unfortunately, though Wigan didn't make it. So heart says Warrington.
  7. Look mum! I caught one!
  8. Jon. I presume.... Who is Jon?
  9. Is there maybe a sense that Brits in the NFL are held to different, stricter standards?
  10. Actual recorded times? But earlier you called them "unofficial".
  11. https://www.rugby-league.com/get-involved/club-support/community-investment-&-funding-
  12. As I understand it, () things at the RFL have not changed: Tony Sutton is still the CEO and there is still a Board of Directors. (Companies House currently shows 8 directors, including Nigel Wood, appointed on or around 21st March this year.) One part of the CEOs job is to ensure execution of the Boards decisions. Presumably (?) the board is aware of the SRD situation. Maybe the RFL will comment at their next "Openness and Transparency Press Conference.)
  13. If that rumour has any substance, I trust that Wane will stay for a god few years, not just treating it as a holiday job. Stability, committment, priority etc . In any case, I'm sure he wouldn't take the job if there was any doubt about Cats staying in SuperLeague.
  14. Super excited about the amateur autopsy club I just joined. Tuesday is open Mike night!
  15. Quite so. It's an opinion based on over 65 years of following the sport and observing the supremely professional way it is run. (Apart from when Richard Lewis was in charge, when it WAS professionally run by a professional. He became CEO of the All England Tennis Club - the role now fulfilled by Sally Bolton, another professional and one-time heroine of this forum) I'll stick to my belief. I realise that just believing something doesn't make it so (though the billions of theists would disagree) but in the absence of anything to the contrary I'm assuming it to be true and accurate unless there is evidence or information that contradicts it.
  16. I'm not sure the pre-ordained review conclusions have been based on any actual facts.
  17. Is George Williams definitely not playing? If he does play, it's make KRs task all the harder. At this stage, though, I think Peters is showing he's a better coach than Burgess.
  18. It's up to you fanboys to prove I'm wrong. Show me the minutes and I'll concede that point.
  19. It is a 12 year arrangement, I think, but expect that there are break clauses, escape clauses, etc. Not that such niceties would worry the junta. That will all be clear when the new Faster Better Cheaper RFL publishes the contract together with any cancellation settlemnt.
