How long left?

« Long left » long ago…..

A bit baffled here. A few weeks back Fev came to Toulouse and played well in their league victory. That day Thomas Lacans ran the show and was the MOM by a mile but didn’t even make the 17 man squad for this game.

What's good for a club and good for its fans often doesn't align with what's good for its contracted playing staff......

IN all serious talk @Leonard if we do go up it will be despite Hughes not because of him.   He took us Part Time remember. This side we have is still not a patch of our 2018 / 2019 side, as well as they have played last few days. We are still well below what we had 4-5 years ago

Not so sure about that CM 

We wouldn't exist without DH

[Segovia Carpet]

Don't forget RL players are mercenary in financial outlook which I totally understand so maybe Fev players preferred Championship level games and winning pay in 2024.

Maybe promotion could attract new investors? There must be a few Aussie billionaires out there who could spare a few quid?

The idea that DH should plough (pun intended) on losing £2m a year and running a FT side is bonkers.

Hopefully not the ex Skolars potential investors.

So are ViaPlay going to show this game or will they let OurLeague show it do we think? 

(Sorry I meant next week)

Possibly so!

Am I right in thinking some of Broncos overseas players couldnt to travel to Toulouse this season due to visa issues, if so  will they be in the same position next weekend?

The fix is in !

Hopefully Corey trims his fingernails. 

[Gooleboy]

Well played London. A deserved win. Good luck for the final next week.

[Aerosaint]

Incredible result.  Feel a bit for Featherstone as they appear to have done everything right to get to SL. However, for the game its great to have more teams outside the M62.

Theoretically, could they play for free (not that they would), because the they wouldn't need a work visa?

Sponsorship, tv money and bigger crowds from promotion would mean he wouldn't.

That's fine in SL but not in the championship, unless he literally wants to throw money away.

Just one last message to all my Fev pals, commiserations I know how this season was going to fill all your hopes and dreams of reaching SL, don't forsake your team.
