Barrow Raiders to be deducted six Championship points : Mon Jul 18, 2011 8:41 am  

According to today's League Express. I think that just about cements our position in the top six.

Don't get to hasty, think we need to get at least two, hopefull more from our next two games, Leigh and Featherstone games will shape our season...

No, we're in the six.

It makes no odds really - we can't become complacent because we need to get as high up the table as possible.

On the other hand, 6th has beaten 3rd in the last two seasons .....

If finishing sixth means we face Batley but finishing fifth means we face Widnes, I'd much rather finish sixth. As it happens I think we'll finish fourth, behind Fev, Leigh and Widnes and in front of Batley and Halifax.

Come on lets have some confidence in the team - in the top three!
A real shame if Barrow lose out to fax - and wasn't it great to see them go out in the last few seconds of the cup - wonder if theres any salary cap issues there last season????

I have confidence but we have to play Barrow, Leigh, Batley and Fev twice still this season!

Leigh will be fired up this weekend and we have a short turn around against Fev whilst they have a week to re-charge the batteries.

I think we will get top six and have every ounce of faith in this team but Fax have turned their season around and are playing well. It's not going to be a cake walk. I hope for 4th but think 5th with Batley in 4th, Widnes, Leigh and Fev making up the top three...

We'll beat Batley and Barrow, can't see us getting anything this weekend and can only see one win at best against Fev.

Fev away is an easy three points.

Strangely, we have a habit of losing at home.

I hope we win @ Barrow as I'm heading up for the night and Fev away too as I'm going to that & missing the two final home games due to Holiday..

What the reason behind the deduction? Too many coaches in a season?
