Many a club have been close to closing and haven’t. And many have had success on the back of a bit of over spending - You panic too much BSJ. We’ve had two moments of magic in my 50+ years of following Dewsbury. 1973 and 2000. One of them was down to Bob the great. If you never dream Wots the point? Long live Sir Dermott I say.

Which ever is the daftest and least likely to work will undoubtedly win. Will SL allow two extra teams in though? Seems unlikely on past experience.

Lots of lovely messages on Facebook. Seems impossible we won’t hear “legs, Dews, legs” again. RIP Elsie

But we didn’t close down did we? And we aint had much else to cheer about since so thank goodness for Bob McDermott I say. Will always be a hero for me

Who knows how this one will go. We never know what we’re going to get until kick off with this lot. That said away form has been cracking so fingers crossed.

I’d have thought I’d have thought he would have been asked. He might have spent a tad too much but had he not no one would have been up there celebrating on Saturday- cos we would have won nowt. I won’t say anything bad about him. One of best teams we ever had. At the same time we owe MS a massive debt of gratitude.

Like the look of Dec so far so pleased with this news. Once the Coach and players work out he can offload and throw a decent pass and reckon he’ll be even better.

Well, unlike most of the posters I thought we were much better than last week. Ok, no where near perfect, still no backing up and not an ideal first half by any stretch but I thought we tried to play a little wider from the start and it was much less down the middle than against Goole. Much better with Keenan on the wing I have to say. Thought Hookem was MoM. Never looks like an old style 7 but he never stopped working and must have been close to the top of the tackle count. We were also better when both Toby and Dec were on together.

Ditto

Agree 100% and wish that we could have Sam Day play, but coaches love tacklers and I’m relatable informed that he’s one of our best in that regard. Rather frustratingly I see that Reiss Butterworth has played one game for Sheffield. Boy oh boy he’d be massive for us in this league.

As it happened I would have been better fixed watching tv.

Was poor tonight. Simples….

I know we’ve debated this before and while I understand (I think) why the club likes to have the odd Friday night match - why do we always chose one when Yorkshire CCC have a home blast game? They only have two or three Friday Blast games at Headingley all summer and yet, for the 72nd year running one of those clashes with our one Friday game. Suspect it doesn’t affect many people but it ****** me off. Mind, we could debate the joke that is a fixture list in this league ad infinitum.

Happy, happy days. Just the mention of Dennis Bailey gets the endorphin levels rising. Good job you didnt listen to Eddie…….

A lot more fixtures
