Widnes’s points difference is a lot better than Barrow’s and Sheffields as well, so we only have to beat Halifax and Workington to guarantee 5th place, unless Barrow beat Doncaster , which is very unlikely.

So we could throw the Sheffield match if the RL make us play it 4 days before the final.

Donny battered them last week and are the form side.

However I had us to beat Sheffield away but that is far from certain now with the 1895 cup shambles having us play possibly the Wednesday before the final. They nearly beat Oldham away today too. It is unthinkable but could we finish 7th?

still expect us to go to Oldham, which is a very winnable game

I think position by position were better but they just always seem to get over us

Not in the home game they were better in every aspect

and we were not much better v Oldham at home either

However yesterday gave some real hope...............

we would peobs not be favs v either but as London found out we can give anyone a game....just need to reduce the errors especially the unforced ones
