Anybody any rumours at least? I suppose Fartown will turn up with their second team and ten fans but other than that why can we never land Leeds or Bradford?

If trying to make some much needed finance in these friendlies, why persist with the likes of Huddersfield.Complete waste of time.They can't even get a decent gate at the Galpam(not sure of the spelling)Stadium.

Hya Frank, hope you are well. Though I do agree with your sentiment regards Huddersfield, it may be that part of the deal regards Dual Reg players may include a 'friendly'. That is the only reason I can think of. It would be good to see the likes of Leeds/ Bradford/dare I say Wigan, but as we all know, they have 'arrangements' with other lower division clubs. Ours happens to be with Huddersfield.
WHERE DO YOU WANT ME TO SWIPE THIS?

'Ten fans' so thats 9 more than what you've got then.

3 friendlies = 3 losses.

Will you be handing out free schools tickets to make it look like you have a crowd?

No but you can have youre picture taken with our new shiny cup if you want for £5 , the added bonus is you also watch a game on a pitch which actually has some grass , unfortunately for us we have to put up with an appearance from Warren Jowitt who managed to have a massive impact in his first game as assistant coach of France , how did they get on biggrin.gif biggrin.gif Jog on laugh.gif laugh.gif

Erm.... they battered Ireland in their first game huh.gif

And by the way, our pitch is looking lovely at the moment, it always looks good a couple of months after the season has finished! Our grass must just be shy of people!

thats a brilliant idea Bob.championship charity shield. why not share the gate receipts(After costs) between two local charities, in batley and halfax. just a thoght. (Maybe Kirkwood and Overgate Hospices?)

would the rfl put a cup up to play for annually?

and then in my opinion both clubs should get another friendly from the rfl to raise a few bob for both the clubs. maybe the Rhinos.....for us???

We have plenty of grass on the pitch out wide during the season, it's just a bit bare down the middle (like the top of my head). It's what happens when you have a coach that likes lots of props.
