Worthy of note...

Home game on Good Friday afternoon - obviously can't afford floodlights :lol:

No game on Easter Monday for some reason

Newcastle Away on the Friday evening before Magic Weekend

Waiting for an announcement...

Re: 2018 Fixtures : Wed Nov 15, 2017 1:20 pm  
From the RFL website;
"The 2018 League 1 competition will see fourteen teams play each other home and away, with the League Champions granted automatic promotion to the Championship and a play-off system involving the teams finishing 2nd – 5th to determine the second promoted team."

First time I've seen it officially confirmed as to the playoff/promotion structure.

Proper home and away with promotion for finishing 1st....surely this is too sensible for the RFL, quick, change it to something more convoluted immediately to appear interesting!

Friday night home match in July seems a bit odd ??

Don't worry, if we finish 1st Ralph will highlight Section B of sub clause 124 from the imaginary rule book which states that the Bulls should be deducted 12 points and 4 years central funding if they have the audacity to finish top.

It's ok though, the rationale behind this is very clear to the professional board at the RFL and consists of 10,000 pages.

Testing the water and reaction to a night game. The same principle with the Saturday afternoon fixture in June.

Maybe they want Bulls fans engaged with the Magic Weekend? Not sure why.

Do you think the listing of us versus Newcastle both home and away at 7.45pm on a Friday night is a mistake? I get the night before magic but why would we do the same for the home game?
