Like a lot of people - a disappointment. It started with a car crash and finished with a damp squib. Give Hendo a full season and let us see what he can do. At times it was a bit like De JaVu all over again as a big Yorkshire pack would bully our team of triers and they would run out of steam well before the end.

The tackling technique needs to improve, learn the lesson of dual reg and get someone who can read a game and direct the team round the park. These are basics that have undone this team time and again.

On the plus side Morris is a gem who we will do well to hang onto. Hopefully we will have more luck with injuries and the club will finally realise that the fans are its biggest asset.

I hope that the game at the Olympic Stadium will wake up some in London as to what the game can be in the capital and that a group of business with nous will take the club over with a long term plan to build a real club. Nil Desperandum.

Well I didn't get to a single game for the first time in nearly 20 years. Only one I saw was on Sky at Blackpool v. Sheffield. Enjoyed that but it flattered to deceive.

What else to say? After the disastrous early weeks, things sort of stabilised but that's about it.

To sum up, a big disappointment.

However, next year is next year. I've bought a season ticket at the geriatrics special rate and hope to get to a few games when the weather is warm.

I would not bother with either of those. Branson was only involved to promote Richard Branson, remember it was under his watch that we sold thousands of tickets for the Challenge cup final, but failed to garner any contact details from it.
Lenegan, whilst he had a bit of an idea about marketing the club, he soon cleared off when Wigan became available, left David Hughes in the lurch.
Now if you are going to pluck names out of the SKY, ( No pun intended ) I would go for James or Lachlan Murdoch.
We however have to get on with it, with David Hughes.

Who knows, maybe the Trailfinders people will like 13 a side and want to buy in? Not sure what other hope we've got?

Maybe I should buy my first ever lottery ticket?

OTOH, don't fancy buying the club only to be subjected to a hail of abuse from you know who. :(

Selco, answer our prayers!

David Hughes - The Gerald Ratner of Rugby League? Discuss. Or not as the case may be.

Any new owner would get a clean slate from me.

Except maybe Gerald Ratner.

& even he would probably be a slight improvement on the incumbent.

I'm not sure they'd be interested. They both show far more interest in News Corp operations in the US than anywhere else, and James is virtually a full blown American these days. Neither seems to have any affinity for RL, unlike their dad. I suspect that as soon as Rupert pops his clogs Sky won't show much interest in Super League Europe any more.
In the same way the the Broncos need to plan for David Hughes money drying up, RL needs to plan for Sky money drying up.

So still enjoying watching some RL, being a stubborn sort they will probably have to fold to stop me coming


i'm with you.

Like every other poster, started with a bit of hope after the car crash of the year before - then another car crash, Blackpool, high then too many lows, a few positives towards the end, Dewsbury was beast away game i have been to for years then widnes.......................................................

Featherstone on Good Friday was my favourite away game this season. Widnes my least. So disappointing.
