  1. Same here John, gave Odsal a miss, don't think my old lungs are up to the red dust these days. As you said another great commentary from Andy ably assisted by Myles, who really knows his stuff. And I've got to thank Acko for once again adding some humour to the proceedings. Think him and Myles were trying to work some decisions out and Acko said " I think it was Colonel Mustard in the library"? By eck, an old Cluedo fan.
  2. Is that the one that picks up in Strensall John?
  3. Not so sure about attracting young gang culture Acko. How about getting some Saga trips to turn up, Clint might be up for providing cream teas as an added incentive. Gerrem over from Dean's!!
  4. A great team effort against a resurgent Barrow. Once again I listened to an exciting commentary from Acko ably assisted by Jacob Gannon. It says it all when they struggled to choose a MOM, it sounded like a few players could have been given this accolade. Inevitably it went to Liam, a great captains knock. It's all amazing considering the first three matches. In future might I suggest that the club employ some form of special means to raise the players quickly from their preseason slumber? Over to you............... Well done EVERYONE.
  5. If there's any truth in this stuff then there's some more questions to be answered. As mentioned above " Clint's message " ......" can't have reached the players" and possibly didn't reach the coaching staff two of which quickly left the club and joined Fev. I'm surprised, certainly at the moment, that Fev are such an attractive proposition. But ££££££ as usual.
  6. For at least 70 minutes today that was an embarrassing performance by our side, it was quite amazing that we were only 12 points down towards the end. Then, a good late try was like the kiss of life, a newly found enthusiasm that had been sadly lacking suddenly showed up, and Knight's fans woke up. There seemed to be so much wrong today, especially in attack. To me, Hingano appeared to be trying too hard at times but maybe because Liam seemed strangely subdued, offering little threat with ball in hand. But when we only have one forward consistently making any ground, Thommo as usual, then the halves are working with scraps. All in all very poor from our team, a shame as the pre-match entertainment from the youngsters was excellent. A hell of a lot to work on.
  7. NO
  8. For me this was one of the best overall performances for a while by the Knights. Donny have made some good signings but time and again, when Connor Robbo tried to get their attack into gear, our defence snuffed them out. As others have alluded to, I also expected more from Donny but our hard working and organised team barely gave them a sniff. Well done all.
  9. I think the decision was given cos a Knights tackler touched the ball in flight. We were bang in line and it did seem to change direction, but only slo mo will tell for sure. Gutted for the lads, gave their all and got nowt. But great to see an 80 minute display.
  10. Yes, apart from running riot against the amateurs up at Newcastle. I've always considered Dagger to be a classy player and thought he would be a very useful addition this season. BUT, I do wonder if his temperament gets in the way of his performance?
  11. Got it in one there Roger, " when we go behind early we seem to struggle" . Think it was about 60 minutes when Acko said that the Knights players were wandering about with hands on hips looking dejectedly at each other. Or summat like that. It appears to me that this current team appear to be mentally lacking when the chips are down, recent examples being Haven and Sheffield when things were going against them. In todays game the Knights were lacking a spark, and worryingly, but fortunate for us, it was Swinton who provided it with the sending off. We'll happily let Swinton have their own inquest as to why they suddenly imploded, but as Fenton mentioned above it is imperative that the Knights have a good look at their performance today, certainly in the first 65 minutes. Anyone know a good sports hypnotist?
  12. Overall, Glover was the best centre on the park, just shading Jimmy K. who worked hard as usual. If I had to pick Lineham, I'd shove him in the pack. And our other old boy, Matty M, got two tries with good backing up. Although not happy with the result, I'm pleased for Marshy cos when we were at Wembley I believe he missed out last minute due to covid. Yet another must win next week, although I fear that Fax will wake up again soon?
  13. Not often that I'm speechless. STILL STEWING!!
  14. Nice one Acko. As in, engaged to the daughter of a very rich ###### who's making promises?
  15. Yes, during the chat a great request from Ryan Brierley, " I'd love to see his qualifications " when referring to Richie possibly becoming a director of rugby. MONEY TALKS, and it's who you know.
