Sorry to hear Lakers are in a pickle Steve.

That aside pictures are great mate! #1 gets my vote but #2 is close runner.

Cheers,

The images are amazingly sharp Steve. #4 is my pick but they are all great.

Great colours and action to boot.

Thanks guys for all your comments,The breaking news is that an 11th hr rescue package has been agreed with the RFL so the club has been saved from going out of business i dont know how it will affect me atm but at least i still have a club to support so that is one bit of positive news at least.

Steve.

Brilliant as always, Steve. Good to hear the breaking news too -- and if they keep the talents of the best rugby shooter here we'll be even happier.

Great news Steve, I'm not up on Rugby but to save any sports club going under is good news. Was the new stadium the cause of the problems?

not really it was a combination of things, the ex chairman getting his sums wrong in the funding department & bad choices in sacking people without thought to proper procedure so it ended up costing the club in claims for unfair dismissal i could go on & on but i dont have all day lol.
