Thanks DM, for the life of me I cannot get my head around the format. As for getting carried away, why not, we are overdue some degree of optimism surely
I agree. It's good to be optimistic. I know we can only beat what's in front of us and we've done that extremely well in the last two games but to keep things in perspective Keighley beat Oxford by 92-6 today. The proper measure of our improvement will only be shown when we play teams that around us in the table.
This is the good part of the season for this league. Every game matters and there should be some good games for the fans to watch.
It's going to be hard to get up to second or third for a home tie in the play-offs but the worst case scenario should be two trips to Cumbria to get promoted. The matches against Newcastle and York will be critical games.
