FT - Bulls 34 - 12 Celtic

Hooray. Well played.

Playoffs on the horizon then. Just six more wins.

Come on you Bulls.

The way we've been playing that's a pretty decent result. Glad to have a win under our belts even if it is against the whipping boys. Now it will be interesting to see whether we can string a couple of victories together.

Or indeed six.

there must have been at least a full coach's worth or else itsnoteasybeinggreen would have gotten a seat.

Oh and with Hull losing, we are now only 3 points behind our nearest rivals in 10th and 11th.

So if we win our next two games, we could be tenth. Nosebleed time.

Only 5 points off the play off's now

As high as [itenth?[/i Blimey. I hope we are looking to sign Sir Edmund Hilary.

T & A has Whitehead scoring the 2nd try and Lynch getting the disputed Lynch/Newton one.

So we've now got 3 different opinions on that 2nd try!

The next two games against Quins are now must wins if we stand even the slightest chance of making the 8

Bullyboxer, "Whipping boys"?

We beat you last time didn't we?

Fair's fair though. You were pretty dominant that game. Revenge mission accomplished I guess.

That's not exactly a huge achievement this year.

Hey, we'll take it where we can!

So will we, I assure you

Dilligaf, I've not long gotten back from the match and can tell you there were a good coupla interceptions from your guys, on more than one occasion resulting in a try (you seem good at that. I remember watching that game against Cats earlier in the season on Auntie Beeb)

When I wasn't bemoaning the assclown of a ref and the slippy bit in the middle of the pitch I was open mouthed at some of the creative running lines.

I'll tell you, I was fearing another result like our one against Wakefield.

I'll get over it, but you look like you may have a team worthy of cheering again soon if I'm any judge.

Oh well, till next year (if our sugar daddy doesn't screw it all up)!

Well I'll go to t'foot of our stairs.

Bulls in win shocker.

Well, assuming Wire beat Salford tomorrow that will be seven points again

Unless Salford do us a favour

Pretty good result today! Comments from Grendel sound encouraging.

I have a nice little spreadsheet, where you flag each match as a home or away win (draws are banned) and it gives you the projected final table.

IF Bulls win all bar Hudds away, and IF Wire and Cats only win 3, Quins 2, Cas (! Hmm...) Hull and Salford 1, and Celts none, THEN we'd finish 8th:

1 Stains 44
2 Whinos 40
3 Hudds 38
4 Hull KR 35
5 Pies 30
6 Wakey 28
7 Wires 26
8 Bulls 25
9 Cas 24
9 Quins 24
9 Cats 24
12 Hull 20
13 Salford 14
14 Celts 6

But No margin for error, and a shedload of IFs that all have to eventuate. Could it happen? Yes. WILL it happen? Would take a miracle of biblical proportions.

We gifted you lot a couple of tries, but all in all you played pretty well! Glenn Morrison was superb..absolutely dominant.

Thanks for that, sounds encouraging. Typical if we leave it til now to start playing well!

Yep, as usual. That's why we are getting rid of him, we have no room for that type of player at our club.

Aye, thanks to Grendel and ajh for giving us a bit of insight. Sounds at least encouraging. Part of me though kind of wants Morrison to start getting a bit rubbish, so I'm not so disappointed about him leaving.

Anyway, I hope Celtic keep improving. Since I have a bit of welsh in me, I consider them a bit of a second team and would like them to do well. Just not at the expense of Bradford!

ooo err missues

ah that explains your dry spell then

Problem is that Cas have Celtic and Quins to play in their last 2 games - one would probably back them to win both, especially if they [ineed[/i to win both....
