Was nervous all week....until Thursday, and then for whatever reason, I began feeling confident that we would win.
I just didn't have that terrified "What if... ??" feeling that I had for the MPG against Bradford.
Chalk and cheese I suppose that 2015 team was a terrible team that just managed to pull one out of the bag. This team even minus many of its star players was always a better bet. Much credit has been given to London but its worth pointing out that no team other than Catalan perhaps has more home advantage. The distance and that awful plastic pitch does IMO make a difference. I always believed that our pitch, our support and our team would nullify London to a great degree compared to the two away games and I believe thats what happened,
