Not so sure about wanting the team to get beat in the semi-final so we don't get embarassed on Sky TV again. Maybe we should let the players decide on that one. On the pitch.
But being a realist I think a few people on this thread need to take the old rose-tinted specs off a for a couple of minutes.
The stadium (!) is nowhere near good enough. The team has some very hard-working and talented players, but also too many duffers and mature players. To attract the calibre of players needed for a tilt at Super League we need money and lots of it. Unfortunately we are in the back of beyond with very few large businesses in the area. These are needed to plough money into the club. We just dont have them like they do down in Lancashire, Yorkshire etc.
Hopefully we'll get to Blackpool and win. But I have a feeling that will be our upper limit this season. Anything else is probably just a pipe-dream.
Before you slag me off as being defeatist just to let you know I was watching them before a lot of you were born. And I was there when we were embarassed by Featherstone when they were down to 9 men.
