IF we turn up, Wakey will be favourites to win. I have seen most of our games in the Championship and we are a level above all the teams we have played. We are making metres almost every tackle, whilst the opposition struggles to make ground.

Bradford will have to be at their best, and Wakey below par, for you to win.

I’m going 32-12 to Wakey

The cynic in me suspects that was the plan all along. The only way it would potentially change would be for a new owner with money to burn who could afford to address certain areas that would earn more IMG points. That, and an existing SL team to really hit the skids.

Once this eventuality becomes the norm that will mean some really dull games between the lower teams in SL with no jeopardy whatsoever. The public are gonna be going crazy for Cas vs Hull the grounds will be packed out. The drama of who finishes 11th!

I did say this.

Oh the green eyed jealousy

You honestly think Bradford fans have had it rough, give me a break, try being a Trinity fan for the past 40 years, then you'd know real heartache!

Yes it's a bit Mickey mouse as trophies go, but in our case its hopefully just a bit of a taster of things to come, not sure you can say the same.
