April

[Dave Naylor]

During the month of April we had six games.  5 in the league and 1 in the cup.

Dismissing the cup, we won 3 out of 5 league games and the two losses were against Toulouse away and Halifax, a game we should've and almost did win.

The wins were against Bradford, Swinton and Dewsbury.   

I tell you what, we're doing just fine and the best may be yet to come.

Yesterday was the breath of fresh air we needed, the players should feel proud as we are of them.What a set of pads we have.

Have we got some new training equipment?

It's going to feel strange playing the Batley home game not at home(the fold).Hmmmm. Hope they can find a suitable venue where a decent atmosphere can be generated.

True hopefully it won't be in West Lancashire

Just analysing the season so far, we're doing ok.

1) Home wins against Sheffield, Bradford and Swinton, away win against Dewsbury and a draw at Rochdale, 2 point defeats at Featherstone and Halifax, and at home to London.

2) Expected defeats at Hull KR and Toulouse, although we may have hoped for better margins, and our only really bad display at Batley.

That means we've played the expected top 5 once and done ok, we've only had 4 games at home, so we've only got 4 away games to come (London, Swinton, Bradford and Sheffield), 7 at home plus the Blackpool bash.

Without tempting fate in terms of form and injuries, if we can stay strong at home, we should be safe and, hopefully, avoid the last day drama of last year. Fingers and everything crossed.

Just think if we had taken those points against Hairnets, Fax, London and Fev - we'd be in 5th spot.

[moorside roughyed]

I know,a sod isn't it. We've not done too bad this time.Those losses were close ones,too close.

Had we played and won the Dewsbury home game we would be in 6th. No complaints about that whatsoever.
