The Daddy

Is anyone able to confirm whether London's PNG players are still unable to travel to France? I think that could be pivotal

It's understandable though isn't it? Toulouse's fixture with Albi was at the same time as the Championship final and they want to bring in as much support as possible. Don't think they expected to get a home draw in the final given Featherstone's form this season. But I understand it is really inconvenient for you. Why don't you travel to Toulouse and watch the final?

Not my finest moment? Have you read what Fev supporters are posting on other threads? This is in response to that and the fact they can't just congratulate the team that won yesterday. Do you think their unsportsmanlike behaviour and their barbs at London and Toulouse are a fine moment?

May as well just put all the complaints in this thread to stop others from being sidetracked. I'll get things started shall I? It's all IMGs fault we didn't get promoted and got beaten by London even though we had the highest playing budget than any other club in the Championship, now we're totally robbed.

I wouldn't mind if they had a single valid point, but..... The IMG reshuffle was known for months and is a totally different debate. There are plenty of IMG threads to discuss this but somehow it's all terrible now coz they lost on the pitch. Total ignorance

But Fev don't even have good attendances. This is so hypocritical when Fev looked invincible none of these people said a word. Now they lost they're coming up with ridiculous strawman arguments. Really pathetic behaviour, so glad they lost now.

They were under restrictions for most of that season and things didn't get back to normal because a lot of people refused to go out for some time

Start a new thread then about the 'death of the sport'. I'm sure everything would've been cushty if your team won last night.

Perhaps you need to start a new thread about your concerns for the sport. Or are you trying to conflate the 'demise of RL' in the UK with Featherstone losing?

There's a Leigh in Essex I think too.

It was in jest like all the other Leigh train station jokes

Why do Rugby League fans need a train station to attend games in Leigh? Fixed it for you.

You sound so bitter. Featherstone's crowds this year weren't very good for a team that was dominating the league and had the best chance ever to be in SL. They are no loss whatsoever to SL.

It should be.

Go and lie down mate. Next year will definitely be your year.

Your team lost and they have no one to blame but themselves. Deal with it. Nothing to do with IMG or anyone else.

Well as I've said, Toulouse blooded players in the beginning of the season knowing that they could challenge more competitively at seasons end. If there was a first past the post system it may have been a different story

That was something I noticed too. I was very positive after the way last season ended.

No, the new owner.

I think it's a moot point anyway as Toulouse played a lot of youngsters and players from their reserve team in many games on the understanding of the current system. Had it have been a first past the post system I'm sure they would've played their most competitive team more often.

So you're saying that Fev should've been promoted anyway?

Am I right in saying he used to be one of the clubs sponsors?

Yep it's all IMGs fault that Fev hasn't been promoted for several years running

Yes I've heard that also. New ownership and more investment. Can't remember where I read it.
