I think Quins will take the wooden spoon, although sadly I think Trinity are in for a tough year, but they do seem to thrive under such pressure.

It's quite possible who ever the new owner is, is that they make more money available for recruitment. We would see the benefits in the second 2/3rds of the season. In the likely case of been told in July that we won't be getting franchise I fear this will have a negative effect on the team in the last quarter of the season.

Alternatively the players who have SL aspirations have 3 months to perform to such a level to attract potential suitors which could have a positive effect. e.g. Korky's performances when his contract is up for renewal.

Suits me fine that we are tipped to be last, we always seem to play our best when everyone is expecting us to loose. Also it suits Kears coaching and motivational styles perfectly.

I d'ont care if we come bottom as long as there is 100% effort and commitment in every game, we have a squad full of young lads who are chomping at the bit to get stuck in and play for the wildcats.

Ian Millward thinks we'll just win more games than Quins but it will be down to the amount of points deducted. Pretty much how i see it to be honest. Might sneak above Crusaders as well at a push.

Good old Mildred. I like him.

Suits me fine. No pressure on the young lads.

If Quins can keep Luke Dorn, Tony Clubb, Chad Randall, Karl Temata Rob Purdham, and Chris Bailey fit then they will finish above us, points reduction or not. All these players would stroll into our team. I think Quins have done well to take Karl Pryce, Joe Mellor and Mark Calderwood on loan. They look to have a good first 13.

If we get a new owner then we are going to have to start by looking at loan players from Wigan, Saints, Hudds and Warrington.

How about all Hudds reserve players. After watching them play at BV It would make us stronger in every department

the rfl can give us more than 4 points has that is what they give crusaders

You town hall clock

So if we start on say -4 points, we are favourites for the wooden spoon, and we don't finish bottom, that's a bit of a two fingered salute to the boys at Red Hall.
It's got JK motivational team talk written all over it, us against the world it is then!

I don't think it'll be all doom and gloom this season, we've faced adversity before and come through, we'll do it again me thinks.

"I remember at the last round of licences, we were sitting comfortably in mid-table and we were in the semi-finals of the Challenge Cup and it would have been a bit harsh to have thrown that team out, perhaps a repeat of that situation would cause a scratch or two of the head."

Brilliant!

Considering what JK, Morrison and Obsty have said this week I think this year could be a great year for us. We might not win many, but what we do win will really mean something to fans and players alike.

To quote Johnny Thompson, "we like it hard at Wakey". Funny really but the nearer we get to the start of the season the more I'm looking forward to it.

Though I was beginning to doubt it, that is exactly how I feel. Bring it on.

Me too, cannot wait for Saturday

that is exactly how the players feel so i heard

According to the RFL,no-one needs to finish in the bottom 3 to get kicked out this year?

150-1 to win the Grand Final!

That's got to be worth a cheeky £1 surely?

NO, its just a waste of a quid.

Tight get!
