Batley have now beaten Halifax four times this season, all in games which have been settled by less than than 8 points............. I am just interested to hear why, having attended the games and read the rlfans and totalrl forums, that none of these results appear to be down to the skill, planning and fortitude of Batley.

Leigh have bitch-slapped Widnes since March 2008. Do you think the Mutants give Leigh any kudos for it? No. They're still superior to them. It's the same in this example. Don't lose any sleep over it. No-one cares.

I sensed a MASSIVE sigh of relief today from the West. 4,000 Widnes fans in unison fell to their knees and thanked God that their Leigh nightmare is finally over. Terry Waite looked in a better state after they un-handcuffed him from those Lebanese radiators after 4 years. And now, off they go to Super League - all the better for it

At least it prepares them for expecting defeats before they've even turned up.

We should have beat them today, 3 clean breaks without a finish and we now leave this league with a bitchy feeling in the back of the mind. Pre season friendly must be organised so we can show our Super League muscle and run over them.


It would seem Batley are now bitching the Fax.

Hmmmm, £1.2m versus £300k. Go get 'em Vicky !

And with regards to Batley - indeed they are. It's the main reason we're nicking their coach next year and probably picking the bones over their squad. Always evolve Vikingman, assimilate if you have to. Don't just lie face down taking it.

Not sure were all these Harrison rumours are coming from, heard today he's lined up for a current SL job.
