RE: NLN Watch - Paul - 10-01-2024

That would mean that only two other teams would be relegated.

Does anyone have any further information on this?
Both clubs are confident that the work required will be completed on time (March) . Rushall have been given the go ahead to build a new stand by their council. Warrington are waiting on PL funding which is expected next month. We aren't that lucky.

Yeah as Paul says we’re not that lucky, plus I’m sure these things come up every season and no one ever goes down. I doubt anyone will go bust either so we’ve just got to be better than 4 other clubs. We’re not going to get any FGR-style reprieves (x3).

That seems way too easy. Depending on the failure of others off the pitch to make our position better is not what we need to depend on. We need results on the pitch so we don't have to worry what happens in other club's houses.

Yes, I know. I was looking for any glimmer of hope that I can find because I’ve already accepted that we’re going down.

Understood, mate. There's still time to right the ship. We can start this weekend with 3 huge points, then on to the next. Can't accept relegation yet.

I agree with your first two points, Heath, and admire your optimism.

Even though they will go down they even get to enjoy a big day this season and are now in the final 16.
