They actually came third in 17  and in all that time this will be  FEV's 6th appearance in a grand final and don't forget  for four years we had middle 8 qualifiers which FEV got into twice and when they didn't they won the championship shield 

So in 10 seasons  that's 6 grand finals  2 qualifiers  and 2 shields That's  not a bad record

Counting the championship shield as success is a bit of a stretch don’t you think

It's still a 5th finish

Not sure what consistency over a number of years has got to do with promotion,under the present format all that counts in s an 80 minute performance in a one off match surely.

So you agree , if Fev beat Toulouse they will deserve their promotion ?

Do you support a team Davo?

Or are you a fan in general?

There's no right or wrong answer lol. I just wondered. As you probably know I support Batley.

Yes but seeing how they weren’t in the games yesterday I was wanting Toulouse to win for personal reasons & Fax because they were underdogs.

Not bad when you add it to 2 top 4s and four 1st's in a decade

5th in a 12 team league is still mid table to me.

Depends how you divide it up. Top, above mid,mid and bottom.

As always, that depends how you want to define Lancashire.

Barrow, Leigh & Widnes are all in the traditional county.

In isolation for one year yes , do an average over the decade and look at where Fev are ?

That wasn’t what was stated. 5th was listed as an achievement/success, I don’t believe it is that’s all

A top half finish , and it was made as part of a decade , so the worst finish in a decade was still only 5th

Not wanting to derail the thread (that's not a Leigh/railway joke, honest) Barrow started being administered by Cumbria CC (rather than as part of Lancashire) when Leigh began being administered as part of Greater Manchester and Widnes by Cheshire CC. So what is the distinction you see between Leigh & Widnes, and Barrow? If you consider the first 2 are in Lancashire, why isn't Barrow?
