The doom and gloom is generally around the people that post on here. Never happy. Beat Batley on Sunday and we finish 3rd. Yes we’ve not really hit our straps this year or been playing free flowing rugby but it’s still got us to 3rd.
Whilst I for one agree with some of what you have said it's not the full story by any means.
I can only speak for myself and others may see it completely differently but here goes.
The doom and gloom element is based on the state of the game as a whole as well as what's happening within the confines of our home town club.
Doom for anyone outside SL because for a fact they voted for a breakaway gaining direct full control over themselves and virtually indirect full control over everyone else.
No one else including the RFL and every other club has any meaning full say in what the future holds for the game, it's the sporting equivalent of a dictatorship.
The world of football soon saw what was happening when the so called elite clubs tried it on and it got quickly stamped on but not the world of rugby league when the SL clubs did it.
Gloom because everyone is in the dark and there's a common thread, no one knows what is going to happen to the wider game through lack of information and no on knows what is happening to our own club through lack of information.
As laudable as finishing third is if we Batley or even fourth is if we don't doesn't change anything from the above.
