Don't you worry about us and our attendances you've enough on your plate trying to get out of league 1. It was a small discussion about crowds and being equipped for the championship. Once the effects of the pandemic ease on RL the big clubs will start moving their players out on loan etc to the Yorkshire and m62 corridor championship clubs and it will return to being a tough league to stay in. As I say I hope it gets restructured back to Two leagues for the good of cumbrian RL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradford even had a super league player on loan for a few games. Wigan had a young lad playing last night he played against us a few weeks back.

DavidM Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I’ve no doubt it’s a big step up . You look at some of those squads in the bottom half and they’d walk through this league. It’s tough week in week out but it’ll be a good watch and however much a challenge you’ve got to want to go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocH Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 To say we would need 20 new players is a bit facetious, we would need to add some experience and power to the squad for sure but Haven seemed to have managed OK since Covid gave them a break? Surely similar circumstances? There are no guarantees in team building year on year, and it wasn't too long ago we turned over the Bulls twice! Did we build on that team? No. For me get out of this league FULL STOP, recruit sensibly then give it your best shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mind if we wait to see if we get promoted and then, no disrespect to your obvious expert judgment, I’ll wait to see who our coach thinks would be capable in addition to those he gave long contracts to at the start of the season.

Scholey Moore Barnes Fitzsimmons out of the pack would certainly do it . O,donnell and o,brian the hookers would . Miller singleton and Doran would .

Cumbria RL Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Our best player before long will be Jake Bradley a lad who has came from Hensingham and who has slowly come through and on Sunday looked unplayable. It shows with good coaching and the lads will to learn anyone can make the step up, it’s just about the lad if he wants it enough. On any given day anyone can beat anyone. I think if you get up you will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lads developed well pal , he's trained hard and took his chances when they have come to him and stuck in , a lot of young lads don't they just think they should be given a place without the hard work, hopefully he can progress further , it's good for the area , well done to him .

Marauder Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 On 25/08/2021 at 16:02, TOWN TILL I DIE said: can someone please settle debate im having over the table so currently we have Played 12 Won 9 Drawn 1 Lost 2 gives us a win % of 79.17% Barrow have played 14 Won 10 Drawn 1 Lost 3 gives them a win % of 75.00% lets say none of the games called off are replayed, if we win 2 out of our remaining 3 games and Barrow win all 3 of theirs what will the % be for us and them ? Divided Games played into points won then multiply by 50. Carlsberg don't do Soldiers, but if they did, they would probably be Brits. http://www.pitchero....hornemarauders/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows. There's a few names in the haven squad who you'd have thought weren't up to it, and are flying. If the lads get promoted, they deserve a crack. Never had as much trust in a coach as I do in Thorman and his support staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

town2018 Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Well I hope none off the team are reading this thread team morale will be at a low due to current form and reading this won't help the situation either this team have probably been the stand out team in the league this year until the last couple weeks so let's keep behind the team and push for this promotion that us fans and the club deserves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
