The Baron Mk11 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Forcing supporters to pay over inflated prices, yes Leigh, that's the way to go, but not for me. QUIS CUSTODIAT IPSOS CUSTODES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness Tyrone, i think Hornets are desperate for this embarrassing incident to go away. The statements from the CEO are so contradictory it is obvious the club are hiding behind the truth. Let's keep this shameful happening where it is in the spotlight, and let's hope the RFL give Rochdale a strong penalty, either in the form of a fine, a points deduction, or both. Regarding the match itself, I expect to have to re-visit Spotland for the game to be played, and, I don't have a problem with that, as I would expect Hornets to give free admission to all York supporters.

Me too but until we've something new to add just re-hashing what we already know gets boring pretty quickly. This is the Hornets v Leigh thread.

glemiln Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 46-6 loss, but fortunately a better second half after being 30-0 at ht. In fact, it wasn't until 68th minute that Leigh ran in 3 tries in 7 minutes. 10 penalties conceded & yellow card didn't help. Much to do for the visit of Widnes. Swinton lost too.

clogdance Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Wasn't a dirty game, but there must have been about 30 penalties !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glemiln Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Only 19 penalties in total - no doubt most too far from posts at the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanE Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Full marks to your guys for keeping at it to the end - and to your vociferous group of fans. The game was out of reach at half time - although that was partly to do with the ref preventing you from getting your hands on the ball, for any length of time. I hate it when that happens to us - but of course it's good on the rare occasions when we benefit from it! Looking forward to coming over to Spotland (lovely stadium) for the return, which I suspect could be a bit closer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I never count them...far too many for my liking. Who was your little half back in the skull cap, he had a blinder, despite playing behind a beaten pack. You had him long ?

After last season's disaster, we are strictly 100% part-time. It's interesting that quite a few of the squad, have taken up apprenticeships, in a variety of trades, with a view to their lives after RL.

AlanE Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 It's also been interesting to note that our fitness levels have been very good, especially against Toulouse and Toronto, of the full time clubs. Toronto, in particular, looked pretty distressed in the last 20 minutes, but we just weren't good enough to exploit that. Last season, we regularly remarked on how our 'full time' players looked less fit than our part-time opponents! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are full time with their 'parent' clubs, but actually train less with us than our part-time players do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
