Unfortunately after another embarrassing defeat are now we are right in the mire of a relegation battle. We are not too big a team to go down with 7 of our remaining 10 games against teams in the top 6 you can even argue that are now favourites to go down !!! Thank God we won 3 or our first 4 games otherwise we would be in an even worse position. In our last 12 matches we have concedeed 392 points an average of 33 points a game Not Good enough !!!! Last year our average was 20

So what will happen if we go down it could be game over RIP Sheffield Eagles especially if Mark Aston leaves the club there is no way we can continue to be a full time team in Championship 1 hopefully there is a get out clause in the players contracts so we can cancel them, the likes of Yere QLT Worrincy Stringer would be able to find other teams with no trouble however the rest possibly not we may have to pay them to the end of their contracts according to wiki our underperforming new recruits are on either 2 or 3 year contracts and if all the full timers leave where would we get a brand new squad from

What's gone wrong for you guys, as supporter of your near neighbours, would rather have Sheffield doing well in the Championship. Hope we play you in the championship next season.

Jeez, duggs, cheer up. Teams get relegated every season. They regroup and come back. Eventually.

As Lemmy used to say, "you win some, lose some, it's all the same to me."

Been away on holiday since 12th May and come back to see that nothing has improved. Reasonable performance I suspect against the Bulls but to concede 6 tries against Workington? Where is our defence? We did better last year when we were part time. I really do fear for the future of this club.

No ground, no support worth talking about, no goal kicker. I am almost thinking no hope.
