13 September 2010 at 12:45 am #46140Drifting I know into “non-football” topic – but what sort of game is it where Wigan get beat, but aren’t knocked out and get another chance to progress, while Saints get to choose who they play in the semi-final!! :roll: :roll:
13 September 2010 at 1:07 am #461449987. yet you will nothing about it in the media? it will get swept under the carpet!! how many did Leeds bring!
13 September 2010 at 1:24 am #46149Its a funny old world. Rather like a sport where a team can finish 6th, more than 30 points behind the side that finishes first, but still manage to be promoted at the end of the season. They get two games to make the playoff final, so it doesnt matter if they lose the first one.
Then to cap it all, they beat that side 2-0 in the next game between the two sides, just 4 months after finishing so far behind them, even binoculars couldnt spot them.
Oh yeah, and they can win against some other minor side 4-0.

there is no convoluted play off nonsense in the prem. the team that comes top are crowned the champions, unlike in the rugby top league were it is a joke! so what are you wittering on about the play offs in the leagues below for?

Wasting your time with this guy.. He is deluded!!
13 September 2010 at 10:59 am #46170So, to recap, just about 11,000 folk can be @rsed these days to watch the most popular game in the world’s most popular league, with cheap season tickets and £7.50 tickets available.
But thats ok as long as that figure is more than a figure for a live tv game for a minority sport played in one small part of England at which everyone paid for their ticket.
Have I got that right?

You’re really struggling now, aren’t you? Leaving aside the slightly prepostrous suggestion that the super league regular season is any different from a football league season in terms of a team finishing way adrift of the top spot but still going on to secure a promotion/trophy, please point out tome where a losing team in a football play-off* competition gets a) another chance to go through or b) chooses who they play next?
I’m a fan of rugby league mate, but surely you have to admit it’s now become a total laughing stock.
* by the way, the two-legged tie is still a single match between those two teams. Think (difficult for you, I know) of it as a 180 minute match rather than a traditional 90 minute match. Never, in the history of football, has the loser of one of these 180-minute matches been given a second chance by playing someone else.
13 September 2010 at 2:17 pm #46186Not forgetting of course that the play-offs in the football league involve a sixth of the total number of teams in the division and as a result only consist of teams who were in & around the promotion picture
In the Super League the play offs now consist of three quarters of the teams involved in the bloody competition which is the equivalent of opening up the League 2 play offs to 18 of the 24 teams in the division or in the premier league all the teams down to 15th would be involved – which means Latics would have been in with a chance of winning the league in 3 out of our top flight 5 seasons
Like Griff I actually like rugby league (not Wigan RL admittedly but I enjoy the sport) but to have so many teams now in the play off makes the regular season virtually a complete waste of time. Add to that the scrapping of relegation, the introduction of “franchises” & the continued ignoring of RL heartlands like Leigh & Widnes in favour of inviting teams in from France/Spain and Wales & the recurring financial propping up of a team in London and I’d have to agree with Griff that the RL hierachy are making the sport into somewhat of a joke
