The thing that makes me laugh most about these Fax fans writting us off already is that there form from the NRC semi onwards was relegation form.

Played 10 league games and won 4 , played 3 play off games and won 1 .The only teams they beat were Fev in the play offs and both Toulouse and Leigh home and away .

Keep writting us off boys , and listen to MC ,about how far ahead of the field you are.
OH and dont choke next year boys.

Leigh should be discounted by everyone as we are a newly promoted club and it will take us time to find our feet, You big clubs fight it out between yourselves we will just go about our business and you don't bother about us :D

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity

Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike




SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

And the most important thing is






























Who will be going down next year :wink:

Oops Sorry I was under the impression that Barrow won the Grand Final , just getting there is only considered as ok because of box ticking. So in terms of succsessful season we won the NRC , and Barrow came top of the table and won the GF you actually won what .... a tick.

You were saying how awful or league form was - we still finsihed in the Grand Final so we couldnt have been that bad could we?

And your right - Barrow did win the GF and Finished first. So?
