jroyales 373 Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 Looking forward to The Final with some trepidation. The Yeds can't give Newcastle the start they gave them last time because I can't see miracles happening twice. The secret last time was once Langers smashed their stand off every time he touched the ball in the second half - they were clueless. So more of the same. Gill is obviously a threat and the Yeds can't afford to give him any room or the chance of an interception because we know what he can do. A decent ref and the bounce of the ball and I can see us winning by 12. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
J Dyson 25 Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 I’m also very nervous about Sunday same reasons as JRoyales but hope the boys can win. Good luck to everyone at the club for Sunday. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stevos Barber 230 Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 After trekking up the M6 since Easter we have to miss the Final due to other commitments. Give the boys extra vocal support to compensate for us not being there. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dave Naylor 2,169 Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 So, the weekend is here. A little bit of neutral RL to whet our appetite first though. Wigan v Salford tonight, Toronto v Featherstone tomorrow, NRL Final on Sunday morning and then it's us at 3.00pm on the same afternoon. Thinking about it, imagine if we were to screen the NRL Grand Final in the club followed by some sort of cooked brekkie and then on to the play-off final. I'd have some of that! The build-up to our game has been a little muted I reckon. Quiet in here and only Roger's news bulletins to keep us informed. Let's hope the calmness is just the lull before the storm and Whitebank is packed. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Can the boys do it? I get so nervous at the big games but i think that goes back to watching Oldham for over 50 years. Not sure if I can get there as the Grandson is playing away on the Sunday but will be doing my best to. I will be there in Heart if I can't if I can't get there in body though. Come on you YEDSSSSSSSSS!!!! 35 minutes ago, Dave Naylor said: 1 Quote Tony Mac If you’re going through hell, keep going – Winston Churchill Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Naylor 2,169 Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 @Tony Mac I think the result is on a knife edge. Having said that, we should have come away with points at their place and then we bossed them in a stunning second-half a few weeks back. If you recall back in 2015, we played Keighley in April away and lost. We then smashed them in the return match at Whitebank and were just the better team in the final. We can repeat all that on Sunday. I've seen every second of every game this season, home and away. Friendlies, league and cup games, the lot. This team has gelled over the year to a point where you can see the self belief. I expect us to win. Home advantage edges it. 4 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Logic 320 Posted October 5, 2019 Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 Think that we have all learned to be on the calm side at times like these, after failing at the last hurdle over the years, when expectations were very high, so it's not a bad thing. However, I do detect an underlying sense of excitement about this Sunday's game and I believe that the players are quietly ready to do the business. COME ON THE 'YEDS!! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

clifford 1,015 Posted October 5, 2019 Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 I think it's too close to call,Newcastle have been playing week in week out and they have momentum,where as we have been resting up, I hope that mr gill has a really quite game and we will by the odd point 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cumberland Sausage 306 Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 Best of luck today from a Workington fan. I have always enjoyed the banter with your fans and had a good crack with a few when we played you at Borough Park this season.I think over the season you deserve it more that Newcastle who have been throwing a lot of cash at it and sadly we only had 14 fit players when we played them recently and with a fully fit 17 we would have taken them. Enjoy your day !! 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

glemiln 157 Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 Well done Oldham, although we shall miss the banter at Hornets. Crook’s excellent kicking, in difficult conditions, as it was for our Final win, was of course crucial. Plan well for the season ahead. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
