Sorry to hear about John. Top fella. Seems that we are losing a lot of our old faithfuls just recently.

Just seen this. Very sad news. A great fella was Dave. Always optimistic always had a funny tale to tell. Been at many dinners where he was the compere and he was class. Always a gentleman. So sad. RIP Dave.

Yes Pete the SAGA trip went well! 41 old gits, the eldest in his 80th year! Started in Hanging Heaton WMC for a few sherbets then on to the ground. Free entry much appreciated. Reasonable beer prices,plenty of outlets. Good selection of foodstalls. Plenty of clean toilet areas. Decent stewards. Good band. Wrong result but not a bad game. We all enjoyed ourselves and will be back. Well done Batley.

Brought 41 of us over from York{Punch Bowl RLFC old boys} on sunday. I can honestly say it was one of the best days out weve ever had and I applaud everyone who was involved. Well done Batley. Real people.

We {York Punch Bowl} played against London Colonials late 80s in the National Cup. Their pitch was in Battersea park I think. They ran from a boozer called The Prince Albert . Had a great NZ standoff at the time who ripped us to bits. It got a bit tasty with 2 sent off and the atmosphere after the game in the pub was ermm..daunting. Happy days!

make sure you print your tickets for the newcastle game as ive seen somewhere the turnstiles at St James wont detect a phone screen.

so far booked for England v Samoa and both semis. will also be attending games at LNER

The Three Pigeons near The Shay only has normal tv. The best bet for watching Sky would be The Ring o Bells next to The Minster, turn right out of the railway station, or The Royal Oak which is straight up Horton Street out of the railway station and 5 minutes on your left. Both pubs have real ale.

Got a feeling Sunday will see our biggest away support this season. A lot of lads going on the 1120 train. Punch Bowl old boys celebrating our mate Sids 60th. Hoping for a turnout like we had at Batley pre-covid.

Phil Lowe
in York Knights
Posted
Can anyone tell me if there has been any sort of recognition by York RL of the passing away of Phil Lowe, one of our finest coaches? Not to mention him being one of the greatest forwards this country has produced. Coached York for 3yrs I think, got us promoted and also coached us to the challenge cup semi. I apologise now if I am wrong but its a bit shabby if hes been forgotten.
