Rochdale in the cup.

[spanishknight]

Play the same squad as last week or swap one or two players?, dont think we have any injuries maybe play Butterworth at stand off dont think Washbrook was the answer last week a bit too slow.

[HarrogateKnights]

Not sure if Butterworth will be available due to being on loan hopefully he is as made the difference last week

[HaxbyKnight]

Butterworth should be available now, doesn't matter to Uddersfield if he is cup tied after tonight.

Normally loan players allowed to play in cup it's the DR who they think they may need in the future that the computer says NO 

regards rochdale watched em on our league and ridyard still got it in his locker he's the one to stop

Yeah I think Ridyard if he plays (cant see why not) will be a massive threat. Genuinely should be playing at a higher level, Rochdale have done well to sign him  

[spanishknight]

With this wind the pitch should be o.k. just hope we can get the posts up with City being at home on Saturday, looking forward to the game and hopefully a Knights win.

[spanishknight]

If the game goes ahead and Tim Spears plays  it will be his 400th first class game, well done Tim your a star not only for the Knights but also for Fev as well.

With the BBC reporting the possibility of mass gatherings being banned from next weekend, the community stadium well advanced and the York City FC camp hit by coronavirus self-isolating, isn't there a fair chance the Rochdale cup-tie (assuming it goes ahead) will be the last game of any description played at Bootham Crescent?

Cant see Coronavirus lasting 2 years. 

[spanishknight]

Heard City wont let Knights use stadium, dont know if right.

[spanishknight]

To be played at Fev tomorrow

[David]

Says on Knights' website that the Rochdale game will now be played at Featherstone tomorrow 15th ko 3 pm.

Can't see much point in playing , unfortunately that's the season virtually over, health must take priority , very disappointing

[YCKonstantine]

City's game today was postponed because a staff member had symptoms of coronavirus, so I assume the stadium is closed for cleaning.

Hope they’ve got a crack cleaning team in to tackle those bogs, there’s far worse diseases than Covid-19 In there.

Sorry folks, gonna be a few mssing here. Youngest son started with rough cough and fever through the night. See you all on the other side. Take care of yourselves and each other.

[RobertAM]

It might be last RL for a while so enjoy it everyone and UP THE KNEETS!

[White Knight]

Final score from Featherstone, Knights 70 Hornets 12. Into the hat for the sixth round.

[JonT]

Sounds like it was just the performance needed to kick start our season. If only it wasnt all about to grind to a halt

[spanishknight]

Enjoyed todays game not just the score, but to see us playing decent rugby for a change, hope the lay offs if there is one is not too long, a big thank you to Fev for putting the game on also.

[HaxbyKnight]

The performance, and result was just what the Knights needed to get some confidence back. Some good tries, and much more solid defending. One other highlight was the sin binning of a Rochdale player,  and the tannoy blaring out,  'Hit the road Jack' as he walked off. Not sure the Hornets player appreciated it, but it amused us.

[DaveButt]

Just how childish can you get

[Mick the Miller]

Cas in the Cup at home whenever that happens
