Batley Bob Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Summer fixture, so not a friendly.I don't think either chairman would be daft enough to risk a dunking on Boxing Day!If memory serves me correctly, there was also a barrel of beer as a bonus for the winning team.Memory clearly faulty, though, as I don't recall who actually won. Winner went straight to the grand final at Widnes , losers had to play again to get there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPH Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 No I truly don't BB. Whichever side wins at these friendlies is pretty irrelevant. IMO of course. isn't this Match for the Roy Powell Trophy ?......

Blind side johnny Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 isn't this Match for the Roy Powell Trophy ?...... Yes, but if your coach uses about 35 interchanges like ours did last year, then you would also regard it as irrelevant I suspect. Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind side johnny Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 May be but I'm pretty sure the negativity on the dewsbury forum has put off more than one who won't be attending? He only goes to MP when he can get in for a fiver. Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change.

coolie Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 He only goes to MP when he can get in for a fiver. Won't be going anywhere this season..Kinda had to cut my nose off to spite my face. No Ram's season ticket,so no in for,a fiver at batley Principles are principles And if you go,don't enjoy what you see,don't see things change,see the same old cobblers listening to the same old excuses... Why go to torment yourself.. Simply you don't Until things change.... And they certainly will without doubt I could always buy a giant's season ticket and get into both for a fiver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
