What are your thoughts on where we will finish at the end of the
season?
I think we will win all of our games, yes the Leeds one will be
close, however I just don't see Leeds losing any of their other
games. And as they are scoring lots of points, they are likely
to get plenty of BP's. So if I am being honest, I think we will
just be behind Leeds at the end of the season.
That will however have been a very good season for us with some
very good players, but I think we will just suffer from the
extraordinary situation the league is in this year.
Hopefully of course I am wrong ;D

I would agree with Steve’s assessment of how the season will pan
out. Whatever happens I would rather the team be in National 2
North rather than National 1. Playing local derbies each weekend
and being able to travel to home and away fixtures is far more
attractive to being placed in a league where most away fixtures
require considerable travel commitments. Despite the fact we are
considerably better than others on our league I am not convinced
we would be successful in the National 1. Will our financial
backers keep the funding going? Will our “senior players” want
to play at the next level with added travel and commitments I”m
not sure. I do feel if we did go up we would mirror Hulls visit
to National 1.

Totally agree. I think we have found our niche in National 2
North, it's good to watch competitive games at this level. There
is just too much difference in class between each league level
and I think we would struggle in National 1. On saying that I
would still faithfully support Titans in whatever League they
were in.

Agree about National 2 north
It would be ideal if they split national 1 I to North and
south.

My personal opinion is that we'll finish 2nd and leeds will pull
away not that I'm complaining with a 2nd place finish. I don't
think it will be the performances that will bugger it up for us
I think it will be injuries. Definitely a lot of potential at
the club and if we can keep the coaching set up together apart
from Harvey as I believe he will move on to bigger things the
future looks bright.

Potential for what? If you don’t aim for promotion what’s the
point of leagues?

Can't entirely agree about the gulf if we were to go up. At the
Leeds away game, we had 2 tries disallowed - both were going to
be given by the ref but were disallowed by the same touch judge,
I think. There was a very dodgy decision which led to their
penultimate try. We only lost by 6. Any one off those calls goes
the other way and we would have won.
Still hoping.

Meaning of POTENTIAL
Having or showing the Capacity to Develop into something in the
Future
I agree with Mwhite83 with his last sentence. supporter I'm
not sure what your Post meant ?. Our Club will push for
promotion until it is Mathematically impossible.
We know it's going to be tough and in reality we can't afford to
drop a single point. Beat Huddersfield in our " game in hand "
then beat Leeds at Home and we Could be just one Point behind
them. Leeds have to play Fylde and Tynedale who have the
POTENTIAL to keep Leeds to 4 point wins, Leeds have to play
Wharfdale Away, and they have the POTENTIAL to derail Leeds
charge.
We will probably be playing Catch-Up until the end of the
season, but with 8 games left to play we still have the
POTENTIAL to do it.
