yes
A number of teams go as far as to field weakened teams and I guess thats a step further down that road.Mike N said:DontLookBackInAnger said:No
The reason I say this is that although we have a batter side(and did so last year), the rags are spotted 10 to 15 points a season from sides, simply giving up before the game(Wolves, Wigan, Spurs and the like).
I've already posted 'yes' but this is a very good point. The rags have points in the bag before the season even starts.

Sorry Ric - but what gap ??
Yes. I dont think the Wigan's and the Wolves of this World will roll over for them anymore and I think the fear of their fans seeing their years of dominance crumble before their very eyes - the debt, the ageing squad, the reliance on Rooney etc will transmit across to the Team on the pitch.

They finished a huge 18 pts clear of us last season.
