Well your there now, shouldnt we be trying to get a bite on your site for you being pants, not you coming on here allowing the rest to rip you for being dump!

In all seriousness, what you need to do is get behind the team and enjoy it, as i still say 06 was one of the most exciting seasons i ever been too.

Only problem is you dont have the threat of going down to keep you awake at night and then singing WE ARE STAYING UP! When you win.

Can anyone provide the League table stats as at 9th June 2006 (Just after we lost to Leeds, prior to our home game versus Catalans which we won)?
How far behind the nearest team were we (assume it was wakey).

Or be a no mark club that can't spend more money on transfer fees and salaries. And be destined to 30 plus years of winning sweet FA.

I don't have the stats, but I seem to remember we were 6 points clear at the bottom of the league (I think 4 of those points being imposed by the RFL for breaking the salary cap).

By the end of that season we very nearly got into the playoffs, missing by points difference IIRC.
