Remember if Leeds finish bottom or second from bottom they will get just 3 games at home & 4 away in the Middle 8s.



Could just be a tall order if Huddersfield & Salford are in the mix as well.

Oh yeah..Forgot about that one.

And yet being Leeds we will probably be shown on sky every week.

Well Leeds being relegated would arguably be the biggest story since the inception of the superleague.

Yes even bigger than when the pies blatantly abused the salary cap to buy themselves out of the relegation zone.



If the pies can get away with it why not Leeds.

Never mind Bottom 4 which is nailed on, this Leeds team is on target to finish [ubottom[/u and, barring some divine intervention, miracles, favourable planet alignments, etc, they will finish bottom after 23 rounds.



They already require 2 wins just to move up one place on the ladder and that assumes the other bottom dwelling teams don't register any wins. Their points difference is 119 points worse than the next worst SL teams points difference.



Leeds fully deserve to be where they are this season and can thank themselves fortunate that the structural changes introduced 18 months ago doesn't relegate the bottom team in a more thoroughly deserving manner.



Instead, Leeds will be provided with two "Get Out Of Jail Free" cards. Just finish in the Top 3 of the Middle 8's and you're back in SL next season. And if they can't manage that, then feel free to finish 4th or, even better, 5th (they know all about that position of mediocrity from their Sinny and JP days) and they get a Million Pound Play-Off Game to rescue themselves.



Lucky, Lucky Leeds - Super League occupancy handed to them next season on several silver platters.

Because, we are Wigan

Worst Leeds team I've ever seen. And I started watching in 82. We used to be inconsistent, you never knew which Leeds would turn up. No lack of consistency now, same rubbish every week.

Yep, same but since 1976.



This is now comfortably worse than the 1996 side, and that had the likes of Phil Hassan, the Gibbons twins and Graham Holroyd as regulars.

1978 for me...as you say for many years Leeds flattered to deceive. We now seem to have a team that can't even be d trying to deceive us with the odd win here and there.

I will give you the Gibbons twins. But Hassan was far better than the much credited Keinhorst in this team, and Holroyd was in a different league to Sutcliffe. I remember much worse players than those.

I have been going since 1968 and the lack of quality shown by this side is worst I have seen - I missed a chunk between 1990-1998 when I lived abroad and down south.
