Mr Beaumont  says #HullFC score is a disgrace to the game take nothing from @leedsrhinos but you would not put that on any of the top 6 of the @RLChampionships to relegate @LondonBroncosRL ahead of you is an embarrassment! @TheRFL this needs sorting!

I say, So who is going to defend Hull FC for the way that they have treated this season, they have made a mockery of the sporting contest that is Rugby League Football.

He's right 100% sometimes the truth hurts.

Sorry Chris, but there are those so obsessed with IMG that they are just accepting that Hull have Basterdised this SL season, and just because they have been deemed to be a Grade A club so that makes it all right. 

When I actually read some of the comments on here towards Mr B made by the cowardly Keyboard Warriors who are really tough in their anonymity, only diplomacy prevents me from saying what I really think about them, and would they say it to his face, no they would probably mess their pants first, and they know who they are.

Well here's my take on  DB for what it's worth.

Prior to meeting him 100% wasn't a fan 

After several times 100% really rate the man straightforward honest puts his money where his mouth is very sensible and actually all round very generous nice guy.

That's my only comment

 We've got officials making mistakes. We've got players cheating. Now we've got teams not trying. Lastly, we've got fans irrationally  opposed to IMG. Whatever had happened to this great sport of ours? 😄

We've always had officials making mistakes. We've always had players cheating and lots of people are rationally opposed to IMG.

Wasn't it Beaumont who was offering people fights over the Internet?

What's going on at the bottom is just not that big a deal. Some people want it to be because they've got axes to grind or want to manufacture attention but 99% of the sports watching public just don't care. 

I'm looking forward to the playoffs, and if it's anything like last night's HKR-Wigan game we're in for a cracking few weeks of top class sport. Leigh might pull off a shock ot two too. And that's what people will notice and enjoy.

I think most people would accept he has, and does, a lot of good.

That doesn't excuse the bad stuff though.

Indeed. The battle for the top 3 and the top 6 is fascinating. And the games are pretty exciting!

Obsessed with IMG? Oh the irony. You e made more posts on here about them than anyone.

Look Derek can say whatever he likes on twitter and people are allowed to comment on them. I find the stuff he posts an embarrassment especially from a SL club owner who voted for the IMG plans.

Fine he can change his mind, but he might want to have thought about it a bit more before voting for s 12 year plan.

Yes he did, but do you know the comments he reacted to?

But what has that to do with those who hide behind their anonymity in making comments the way they do cowards.

We're you not about when we had 4 clubs not long ago who could all have been relegated and it was grabbing the attention on this site more than the battle for the play offs, and there were so many moaning about that on here, tell you what Toby if it was now that way between London and Leeds that would also be grabbing a lot of attention and big headlines.

I've explained that to you, I get asked lots of questions and quotes and I wouldn't want to upset anyone by not replying.

I think the biggest surprise arising from this thread is the fact you want the bottom club protected from relegation.

It's remarkable growth from you Harry.

Didn't you once admit that you are not infallable and adter making a judgement you have changed your mind, especially if more facts become more prevalent.

On IMG me not so, disliked it from the moment I was first introduced and have not changed my mind.

Course it is, and battles to escape relegation canbe just as exciting, I've been there many times and so speaking from experience, said it before Dave give me a relegation battle anytime  before a season with virtually nothing to play for from the mid point onwards.

I don't disagree that p&r can add some excitement and interest. I quite liked people's first interpretation of the new system (a B club replacing the bottom club if they were B - which proved to be incorrect).

I think if the game decides it can't afford to maintain P&R that's fine to go with a closed shop, but it's a weird hybrid right now.

You dislike IMG, you've kept that quiet.

No all I am interested in is proper sporting competition that the bottom club gets relegated, whoever it maybe I do not hold with protecting anyone finishing bottom not even the French teams as was the call on here numerous times.
