Goes without saying we have to win all the home games, three very tough away games, no disrespect to Sheffield.

Think it has worked out well for us though as odsal and halton have not being great for us in recent times bar the odd exception

Looking at that I'd be dissapointed with less than 4 wins

The Leigh game could be massive for both teams - be interesting where that game comes out in the fixture list. Could be the first Sky game

Why do people keep saying they are glad we are not going to Widnes? Until this season they had not beaten us, home or away, since they were promoted!
They are stronger now, but it all hinges on Kev Brown, without him they are very beatable!
We have got what we have got - lets get on with it now!

Last night Tony Rea highlighted the fact that 'It will be a big advantage to play on their own pitch'

But I take your point

So it will be a big disadvantage to play Kev Brown on the plastic pitch.

So realistically, to avoid the playoff game we need to win the 3 home games and then Leigh and Sheffield away.

HKR away is gonna be tough, Leigh won't be a pushover on their own midden and Widnes at home will be a big game.

very much "Mission Possible" - should be an interesting end to the season.

Looking at those games away should win two away & a trip to Hell KR????? Happy days the season starts here. Great effort at Hudds Sun bohys.
