Cumbrian commentators so biased

What a prat didn't give us any positive comments complete tool

to be fair...they said we didnt get out of first gear....but didnt need to....Batley did just enough to seal the win

[colinb]

Its always tough in Cumbria. Great win,well done ALL. Big wraps to speccies who travelled. 3 to go. !!!!!

[Bill H]

I wish JK was a little braver in his team choice and would play two proper centres rather than a centre and a second row.  It seems harsh to criticise him when we have had such a good season but sometimes the safety first mentality can let you down.

[Chairman LMAO]

So we're all Leigh fans for the day tomorrow?

[doggystyle]

Of course Chairman. Be great to say we were the only team to beat Leigh in the regular season. Oh and the little matter of us pulling away from the Bulls.

[phildog]

Ticked off JK?

[phildog]

Can't get proper team off LOVERL, bag of rubbish an somebody list the 17? Guess Minikin didn't play then? Who got 1st try and goals?

[Antisuperleague]

Thanks from an Oldham fan.

[The Blues Ox]

Of course Chairman. Be great to say we were the only team to beat Leigh in the regular season. Oh and the little matter of us pulling away from the Bulls.

 

Im hoping we can manage to be the 2nd team to beat them and in doing so pretty much make sure that Bradford miss out on the top 4 and leaving Batley and Fax to fight it out for 3rd and 4th. Unless London start to slip up of course.

Ainscough played and got rang up a few hrs before game according to twitter

[Piggy's mate]

Good win for the Bulldogs and puts the pressure back on the other teams for a top four spot. Could do with a favour from dewsbury tmrw to up the anti

May be wrong but I think Patch had both conversions.

Think we are getting rather short of bodies if, as believed, Cas have recalled Minikin. It would seem that JK does not rate Squires so it will be Ulugia plus a makeshift for the rest of the season.

Think squires is injured and out for season.

Good win & thank you, we'll try to repay the favour but don't hold your breath.

[colinb]

Brown, Rettie, Gkedhill tries,not sure bout kicks. Gore n Calvert for Haven. No kicks.

Great win .Well done Shaun Ainscough,drove up having had call 2 1/2 hrs earlier. Alex Brown failed fitness test,Minnikin withdrawn at CAS request.

Don't think he is ever mentioned in the weekly injury report, but may be wrong.

[phildog]

Getting turned over again by SL Dr partners, cheers Cas, were we getting too good with Minikin to give your pals at the bottom of SL a bit of a game? Can't threaten the closed shop can we? Cas already played, the guy Mini replaced was replaced again so why do they need him? Send another then!

That's what DR is all about, it's not for your benefit but Castleford's.
