marklaspalmas 1,493 Report post Posted February 8 18 minutes ago, usain bolt said: The draw was always fixed so that the amateur teams drew a semi pro team at round 3 stage, so made it very difficult for the amateurs to progress beyond the 3rd round stage. It is now an open draw, therefore amateur teams can play each other at round 3, therefore being able to progress to round 4 a bit more easily. So it isn't the same stage as before, the amateur teams get to round 4 on merit. I don't follow. Championship clubs used to come in at Round 3. Now they come in at Round 4.

Bleep1673 1,521 Report post Posted February 8 Saw the 2nd half of the Mayfield v Crusaders match, I thought they were much too strong for their hosts, missed the first half because of an assessment day at the local holiday camp.

Lounge Room Lizard 2,537 Report post Posted February 8 On 07/02/2020 at 10:42, Hullfan said: West hull win easy for me, siddal no were near the team they once was Foolish to write off any Siddal team. Its amazing that they are still such a strong amater team when you look at the amount of Ex Siddal players playing in the Pro Game like Morgan Smithies, Riley Dean, Kruise Leeming, Tom Holroyd, Tyler Dupree, Niall Evalds etc. But having over 350 players and 16 teams alongside a well run club probably ensures that they remain such a strong team over such a long time. Would not surprise me to see them beat a League 1 team if they get one in the next round. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UpTheRaiders 153 Report post Posted February 8 Our game with Skolars if off due to them not being able to get here by train. Possible rearrangement for next Sunday and their game vs workie in the league will have to be rearranged as cup takes priority. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder whether any other games will be off tomorrow, and whether OurLeague will be able to show a different game. Bit of a pain for any Workington fans that might have booked travel/hotels for next weekend though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm glad it's off the weather is horrendous here now so the game probably would have been a poor one with people choosing to stay away. You're right about the workie fans though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
