did you listen

Re: Three scores up and... : Sun Feb 24, 2019 6:18 pm  

I did. The full game, would have been harsh for FC to lose that game funny as it may have been. I suppose you will be treble winners now after that? Shame Hardaker missed his kick but these things happen

nah not treble winners lol, Just glad to get the win,

Said on VT that I'm not sure GP is needed in regular season games and a point each plus point for GP seems fairer? To be level after 80 min in a league game and lose without touching ball in OT seems wrong. I'd feel same if Wigan had done similar. Still it is what it is and think teams will taste both sides of it eventually

Complicating things can create problems. Or inconsistencies at least. Widnes being accidentally financially incentivised to keep us out of the 2018 MPG springs to mind.

Say two teams are battling against relegation. One wins 8 of 29 games and finishes with 16 points, with no gp games. The other has seven normal wins, two golden point games (winning one and losing the other), and 20 defeats - they finish on 17. They’ve effectively had a three-point win to make them safe.

That specific outcome might not be very likely, but if you look at making 5th for the play-offs or top spot for the LLS, one of those consolation points will make a difference at some point.

not a fan myself. think if you've battled for 80 min and got a point is a fair one, even after today still not a fan, by the way you catch out ?

Hope your reception was clear and concise, as our “heroes” did for the pies.

Few Whiting and flats. Cod bit scarce at mo, bit of a strange time with Summer species starting to show and Cod back out to sea. Well done on the 2 points.
