Think a few we’re staying away in favour of football especially if utd/Liverpool etc were on. Not a bad idea pal yea it does catch a few out me esp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Voodooguru Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Its a great idea as long as you don't work first shift at weekends ffs. Thought last season was a one off! The race is not always to the swift nor the battle to the strong, but thats the way to bet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Voodooguru Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Sheffield at home 6pm on a Wednesday is a strange one. The race is not always to the swift nor the battle to the strong, but thats the way to bet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfox Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 The fixtures are a joke . 5 at home out of the first 7 matches . What's wrong with home away each week . Totally agree with DavidM and Cumbria RL .With the season being an early start we will be playing most of our home games .in the winter months .so there could be a reduction in the crowd numbers . If it's pouring down, Rather than standing in shirt sleeves in the summer months . .What is the logic in the way these fixtures have been done . Would love to hear an explanation from the RFL.

When have the RFL ever given us a break? We have extra bank Holidays this year and still can't bag a home derby on one.

If you look on the plus side, could be seen as a good chance to get a few early wins and points on the board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing what we need and being able to get it are 2 completely different things unfortunately. I know we won’t be able to fault our lads for effort but in this league you need a bit more than that.

DocH Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Indeed. I'm surprised and disappointed the 200 Club hasn't been filled yet. I had thought on the crest of the wave it might even have increased to the 300 club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
