So far they've got the results without quite being at their best but York will be a sterner test. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Grason Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Many of these are tough to call but here goes: Batley - (but could go either way) Oldham (home advantage) Dewsbury London Swinton (maybe wishful thinking) Toulouse Featherstone (if they can tighten up their game and cut out the unforced errors they've been making - but will be close) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covering injuries, last couple games we've had 2 academy lads and Joe Brown (nice lad but probably not really Championship standanrd, who is only playing this year so he can play for Jamaica at the world cup before retiring) in the squad/playing.

The 2 academy lads, both England academy internationals, have done well and will be good enough but don't have much first team experience, Alex Donaghy had played one Challenge cup game last season and Isaac Noakes made his debuet against Sheffield. Plus it's entirely possible that more injuries were picked up against Batley last Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Taylor Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Really looking forward to the York Vs Featherstone match. So many on the pitch battles that are tasty. Kirmond Vs Lockwood - I believe this is the first time professionally they have faced each other in a competitive match (not friendly).

The Phantom Horseman Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 The option to buy a weekend pass for £20 or a day pass for £15 for the Championship seems to have been removed now that League 1 has returned, and instead all that seems to be on offer as a package is £30 for a pass for both divisions. That's very short-sighted I'd say, a 50% jump in price to watch a lot of League 1 games that many fans of Championship teams won't watch (if only because of time constraints) is a bit daft as I think that price will put plenty of people off. They really need to reconsider that (or put it right if it's an oversight). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a line from a film, I went to a boxing match, and an ice hockey game broke out. Remember, we are RUGBY LEAGUE fans, not violence fans like York & Featherstone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to put words in Chris Taylor"s mouth, but I'm certain he was referring to the duels on the pitch and not any violence of any sort! 1 "Out of the way,son. Where's my medal?"
