Hate the rec Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 And we really think we will be awarded a WC game? More chance of me scoring the winning try tonight, #rflrunbymuppets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dearham Lass Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 7 minutes ago, Supporter said: Many thanks to the Board and background staff for all the efforts they have made to try to ensure a fair competitive game tomorrow. Well done to the Coach for putting the safety of the players first, and well done to the injured players for being willing to put their injured bodies on the line tomorrow. And finally well done to the players for their supreme efforts this season and for what they will endeavour to do tomorrow despite the odds. It is absolutely imperative that we field a team tomorrow, whatever the numbers, whatever our feelings and whatever our problems. We can't lose tomorrow whatever the actual result, because tomorrow it is all about our pride and belief in Town. Whichever league we are in come 2019, it will be an honour to support a team and club that has principles. Couldn't agree more! Tomorrow is about finishing the season with pride and belief in our great club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homeandawayer Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Once again our board and coach show their class in adversity which is sadly not replicated by certain high profile figures within the game. This week has been a disgrace of epic proportions. We can't win tomorrow but I'd absolutely love it if we did ! Come on Town! ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanMac Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I wonder if anyone at the club knows why the game is not being streamed anymore. Someone on Twitter asked Dave Parkinson, commentator on the app, why He replied he was just passing on the message and couldn’t talk about it. It sounds very strange and the more you hear the more you think we’ve been royally stitched up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the super dooper league final tonight the RFL couldn't even get the steps right as the players went for their medals they all kept tripping up. #couldntrunabrothel.

Cumberland Sausage Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Just give us 100% lads and hold your heads up high and then have a well deserved rest.The RFL have put every obstacle possible in our way and probably hoped we would forfeit the Game. The way they treat the lower leagues I think it could be about time for a break away by the clubs below Super League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkw Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 The rfl are a disgusting bunch of bullying morons who don't give a about clubs like us, I hope we look to take them to court over this once the game is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
town blue Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 The way the RFL is run has nothing to do with Super League, it's the RFL that needs to change, that can only be initiated by the Championship clubs from within. Passed the Travellers this morning and saw the Townies boarding their bus, absolute dedication hope their journey is worthwhile and Town win against the odds.

Keith T Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Good luck to the lads wearing the Town colours today. It has not been an easy journey this season made so much more difficult by the RFL and their late dash to pacify their SL paymasters and introduce new procedures so late in the season. After watching this game of ours for 70 years I just cannot believe that the people in charge have shown so little regard for the lower echelons outside of SL. Has anyone heard any comments from the new Cumbrian Leader of the RFL, Mr Rimmer on this latest escapade? No, I thought not, he will do well for his new “bosses”. Good luck Town and come home safe. I remember when ............................."It is impossible not to feel a twinge of sympathy for Workington Town, the fall guys this season for the Super League's determination to retain it's European dimension, in the shape of Paris. While the French have had every assistance to survive, the importance of having a flagship in a heartland area like West Cumbria has been conveniently forgotten." - Dave Hadfield - Independent 25th August 1996.
