Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!
Or falling at the first fence, Unseated jockey. There is so many variables in a one horse race.
However a old cliche i like the best is " you got to be in it to win it " You aint in it and are lucky to be in this league, so get of your high horse and do one !.
You are quite correct about the ' lucky ' aspect , as for the race , it isn't even over the sticks and the horse is in a box being pulled by several 4 x 4 s

I must say Starbug, I have never seen a horse box being pulled by more than one four by four at once. Unless over your neck of the woods the 4x4's are cut and shuts and then its a max of 2 4x4's. back at ya !!
I agree with you many times J20 and just before i post to say so i find myself deleting the post and shaking my head in disgust with myself.
As the announcement is imminent i thought i would bury the hatchet, give over with the banter and just say good luck if you are to be rocketed to the super league status, and with god on our side we may be having more banter in 3 years time.
3 years ? What about July we can still stake a claim then.

We can but they wont drop anyone else out at that stage, Quins in becuase they are in london, Crusaders in becuase they have to pay back the RFL over 4 years from Sky money so they are dead certs, Salford represent manchester area, catalans becuase they are french, Castleford will be safe if wakey drop due to area,l Wigan, Leeds, Bradford, St helens, Warrington, Huddersfield and both Hulls are drawing the crowds and doing ok so cant see it myself.

3 years or nothing.
I unfortunately agree with you.
Whoever misses out next week will have another 3 year wait. The RFL don't have the balls to drop two Super League Clubs.

Will they ever have the balls to drop another ? is the issue ?
Or is it as I have posted , we're all sitting around like vultures waiting for something to die ?
Starbug, I think that analogy fits the crime the best. Reminds me of a scene from a kids film ice age 2, where all the vultures are singing food glorious food. Well thats now most of us clubs.
But........when they do die a death i am affraid sympathy will be a long time coming as they ( SL clubs ) do not give a rats arris about anyone other than themselves.

You are giving away your age now , I was more thinking ' the Jungle Book ' , and we are the vultures waiting for something/body in SL to die so they can let one of us in , I suppose that will only happen after the RFL have got most of their money back
