I'll be glad when the French experiment is over. No disrespect to them but I just can"t go travelling to France for a match.

I agree, been over there already so cannot afford another bl*8dy trip.
Thanks RFL, another great idea.

Only If I can get on at Brighouse, though I was trying to involve northern rails somewhere

You should consider getting yourselves an airport lads.

Must admit I was bloody chuffed when we didn't draw Toulouse away, was dreading that it would happen.

Don't even joke about that, the wounds are still raw as that was the only game I missed between 2008 and Workington away this season!

There won't be many fax fans there, probably a
handful, as many as TO13 brought to the shay last year. Virtually zero
It won't be cheap for the team to fly out either being
short notice

When did TO13 enter this comp? I'm sure we had a few NL2 conf teams playing instead. Think we played one at home in 2008

The team's travel is paid for by the RFL so 'Fax will have no worries in that regard.

The NL3 (as was) has disbanded AFAIK and I'm not sure it would have been right for any of those to be artificially parachuted in to this stage of the competition. At least Toulouse had to qualify like everyone else, got to give them credit for that.
