I would take that

The problem with the way the Middle 8s set up, You know who you are going to play, both home and away. The trouble is you have no idea as to when.

Maybe what they need is the table and also the weekend the games will be played. Not necessarily the actual date as that could change due to Sky or ground availability etc

Trying to find accommodation in and around Perpignan in August would be a nightmare.

You maybe looking at Halifax, who is currently 4th, in August. Toulouse has slumped to 5th, 2 points behind Halifax, on the ladder with 2 games left.

Halifax play... Featherstone(A) & HullKR(H)
Toulouse play... Hull KR(A) & Featherstone(H)

If Fax & TO end up level the points difference means TO will just pip 4th spot.

All tough games to win for in that vital 4th spot.

The thing with any play off system is the play off fixtures are never going to be decided until the end of the regular season. So as fans we can look at it 2 ways, it's going to be unknown but there is going to be something to play for. As opposed to straight up straight down where last batch of games can mean nothing as top and bottom can be done with loads of games to go.
What is going to be annoying is if the discussed new structure comes into force next season, because it makes a lot of this comp pointless.
In my view what happens this year should stand, any re structure should come in for 2019 season then 2018 season you know what yr playing for and can plan accordingly.
We all know it's unlikely to be done that way

Sky will decide what will happen and when it will happen not Fatty Woods make no mistake.

Wire Quinn you are so right.
Having been involved in trying to get enough officials for 2 games at hull KR last year, the week before not only did the day of the KR fixture change but the sat kick off time changed to 3 pm this is despite the assurances at planning stages that the game day and time would not be changed.
We were meant to be playing two games before the SL fixture one as a curtain raiser in the stadium

Do you play near RAF Northolt and Perivale station is the closest train station to your stadium? I am asking as I am in the Forces and may park at Northolt for a game.

Perivale is the closest tube station.

Exit the station, turn right to the bus stop. 297 every 12 minutes heading to Ealing Broadway, 5-10 minutes get off at Scotch Common.

Perivale is a park and ride station, or you can park at Trailfinders cheaper.

Mate watch out for the SWO if you do that, they have clamped down on that a bit.
If you want the honest answer it's not close enough to make it worthwhile.

SWO they are bloody traffic wardens nothing else. Watch out for the RSM.

Rsm don't understand the term mate? Met some bloke called billy mott, had a huge rank badge, think he was summat to do with royal garrison, sgt major or summat, seemed to think he was important, got awfully upset when I called him Billy, strange attitude those brown jobs.

Mates a Navy rank of course he wont understand it !!

The person you refer was the R(Garrison)SM of London and ran all the ceremonial parades etc. of course he wont like being called Billy!

Blue jobs hmmmm

Following Warrington beating Wigan last night and the fact that I cannot see Leigh winning either of their two remaining games. Mean that we will have Catalan, Hull KR and
LeighThis gives us Warrington and Widnes at Home

Provided that we do what we should do and finish in second place. Warringtons win over Wigan last night, combined with the fact Leigh seem unlikely to beat Huddersfield or Salford. Means that we look set to play Catalan, Hull KR and Leigh away. Therefore at home, Warrington, Widnes, Featherstone and Halifax at home. Okay I am making a few assumptions here, I think Toulouse have blown it. Catalan who play St Helens away and at home play Castleford are unlikely to catch Warrington.
So simply win our last to games and Perpignan here we come.

Everyone knows Billy Mott the Welsh Guards. Probably out now I was attached to them early 2000.

Bosty are there any dates for the matches i.e. is there a date for top of champ v 9th in SL etc.

Hey I was same rank as billy so it was billy as far as I was concerned.

Back to the thread, agreed think Toulouse have blown it

Your an old then. I was a Craftsman in 2001 when knew him. Attached with the Reme and hope to visit with Widnes mate. If about meet for a beer.

Pm me buddy

Looking at it if I have it right, Catalan are in 10 spot in super league so we will have them at there place, whatever happens elsewhere whoop whooop trip to the south of France, might even have a road trip ride down and camp I have missed Perpignan

Any dates for middle 8 games

If I have it right we play next weekend, final positions of the normal comp are sorted, think the wed of that week the dates and fixtures are released, and it's a weekend off, so we will know a week on wed who we have when with the first game being played weekend of Aug.
Let's hope we play Catalan in sept, more chance of a hotel room
