Players like Ormsby think they are too good to play for Oldham and previously Swinton Bad result for Oldham

Great win for the Lions today over a subdued Fax team Well done to the Lions players Fantastic performance By the way Hull Kr are getting a great player in Chris Atkin

Fair enough Still not a good fixture for us cos it's always hard at your place Good luck in the cup

As a Swinton fan this fixture is totally inconvenient, comes before a big home game and we never play well at your place, apart from a couple of notable exceptions I'd love to know why Steve Slater is calling us cowardly. That's outrageous. Surely this fixture was ratified by the RFL and where Swinton are concerned we rarely get any favours Also can't see when playing anywhere else wouldn't be equally inconvenient

If you get two points you deserve to win the cup too

Fabulous performance from all the boys They were inspired The halves in particular ran the show and more importantly ran at them using their obvious pace We tackled like demons and stuck at and held our nerve Plus I got to meet Danny Perfect

Our lads have definitely turned the corner at an important part of the season

Why?

That Morgan is a hugely disappointing player

So you've not heard any of these criticisms before? Only an idiot would carry on in denial in the face of anecdotal evidence to the contrary

We all know it's not touch and pass. The old cliché response to denying the truth that your team week in week out are dishing out dirt. Funny how you left out Tairas elbow smash to a grounded player followed by an alleged gouging in your synopsis leading to his instant dismissal. How you had such a great view of Murphy injury is questionable as it occurred right in the middle of the pitch in front of the sticks. It looked like a cynical late blow with knees and swinging arms to Murphy head and neck to me I missed how Nicholson was laid out We at Swinton have decried our own discipline for two seasons. It's not been dirty play though. It's been niggling offences like ball stealing lying on pushing and shoving arguing with the ref Thuggery and a collective desire to hurt people from Rochdale in what seems to be a coached tactic to win games is something every fan should be looking to change If you continue to bury your head in the sand you will continue to see your players seeing red cards.

To be fair your worst offence,the absolute maiming of Jack Murphy,didn't even result in a penalty so you were pretty lucky Swinton should have put that game to bed a long time before you were even back in it Lever Murphy and Nicholson were so badly injured they couldn't return to the field of play due to ridiculous cynical dirty Hornets play and Lever apart probably won't feature for weeks It's not the first time your team has been given the label "dirty" this season

London must have played bad at Swinton too Unfortunately they scrapped a victory in the dying minutes where the full time fitness just edged it I reckon the story was the same at Oldham It's about time our little clubs (ha ha I'm being ironic) got a bit more respect from these ex super league giants

The stupidest kick off time for a big fixture is really tomorrow when those smaller clubs who are scratching around for every penny also have to compete with a televised big game Should have played both this evening I really enjoyed the 8pm Saturday ko

Based on not seeing your own team ever commit an offence Hopefully tomorrow it'll be a good game on a firm pitch and you'll see who has the pace out wide
