We open our 2022 Betfred Championship campaign at home to Widnes RL 3pm on Sunday 30th January 2022!

With a bit of luck we’ll have a team by then.

A good test for us. Should attract a decent crowd and the expectation is a decent Broncos side shouldn’t get walloped by them. We’ll have a better idea of where we are after this game.

Can anyone explain why these prats (not Broncos for once) can't just release a proper fixture list. I can only find Widnes & Halifax as first 2 for us?

They announced the first home game for each team. They did say when the rest are out, tomorrow?

Agree it's stupid.

Good to have decent opposition for opening game especially as its first meaningful game at Wimbledon, let's hope the new coach can put together a decent outfit that can compete

You have some catching up to do.

Full fixtures are due out 15.00 today

With the fixtures being announced and pre season started the club should now know 80/90% our squad, who is in and who has left. I do think it’s time they announced the remaining players they have signed and given farewells to those who have left in particular Tsang, Olsi K & Sammut seem to me to warrant at least a thanks for helping. Tsang took over a really difficult situation, Olsi K has been with us for a few years and Sammut played with a badly damaged hand for quite a bit of the season and helped us get over the line a few times. I know as a narrative all the departures look bad but that is the reality of the situation. (I’d really like to know when the club realised that pretty much everyone would leave. That surely can’t have been the plan/ expected).

Bit after the Lord Mayor's Show. Yet another example of how off the pace in selling the game the Right Flipping Lunatics are.

I think it was sort of the plan. When the club wrote to 2020 season ticket holders there was so much stress on the importance of 2021 renewals that I said to a few people I suspected David had signed off 2021 on the basis the club developed two strategies for 2022. Full time if the 2021 numbers added up, part time if they didn't. When it was revealed everyone seemed to be under a contract expiring in 2021, that suspicion strengthened.

I agree the failure to acknowledge the efforts of those departing in recent times has been disappointing. It makes the club look petty to my eyes.
