Back down to earth for us and the team. Our aim from here is tbh to simply finish higher than we do at the break up point so if we finish 7th this round then anything better than that at play off point would show improvement. Not very exciting but thats where we are

Now come on that's harsh! The new floodlights look superb





Tonight showed how far behind the top 4 we are, too slow, awful passing skills and even the defence looked fragile. Happy we got in the 8, but it's going to be a long summer if we play like that.

very long summer

Last week was a celebration of mediocrity .

maybe, but still a good win

we arnt a top 6 team, we are 7 or 8 which is where we are,how many in fairness thought we would finish higher ?

Poor crowd tonight too. Don't know what was officially announced, and appreciate that Thursday night on SKY is never going to lead to a bumper crowd for any team, but it was like a morgue in there. Can't be long before Pearson is begging the fans to turn up again!

Pearson?

Man for man I believe we are a top 6 team, but the whole is much less than the sum of its parts. Put Wigan's coaching staff in charge of that squad for a couple of seasons and they would finish top 4. I'm pretty confident about that.

the team we had out tonight imo isn't a top 6 team

Indeed .

Pretty much this. Which - let's be clear - will require a significant improvement over tonight's showing.



We are not a top 4 team and that target was always beyond us despite any mathematical possibilities.
