Match thread: Championship Rd 20. Featherstone Rovers v York. Sunday 24th July 2022.

[marklaspalmas]

 

We go again. 16 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses from 19 games so far in the league. Just eight games to go before the playoffs.

AFAICS there were no major injuries from the Whitehaven match.

Let's see if any of the 21 man squad (Gale, Ford, Davies and Moors) regain their place in the XVII to face York.

Or if any injured players (Hepi, Pickersgill, Cuthbertson) are ready for action (Kopczak and Kheirallah not).

The big question now is what constitutes the greatest miracle - what Ford witnessed in that delivery room last weekend, or ever seeing him in a Fev shirt again?

He’s been a massive waste of money so far

Aye, but they're cheaper if you buy in advance from the website.

Yes, sometimes a bit of a queue, so arrive in plenty of time. Should be a decent match.

Yes. Go to the ticket booth in the main car park to buy. 

As David says save £2 if you get one from here before (I think midday tomorrow)

Same 21 as last week?

No Fleming.

   Always had this down as a win. And Monday nights game in the warm conditions will not have helped a York team on a bad run.Think we will win by 20+ points but it's the overall performance i will  take note of.Yorks  right winger Brown looks weak under pressure so lets see what Lineham  can do against him.

joe brown has been one of our better players this season  so god help us

[lingaro]

Garbage so far. 

[David Shepherd]

Absolutely awful performance.

Is there even any point forking out for a bash ticket?

 

[elppaxr2i]

Yes not good that again but with everyone else nearby loosin that should at least be 2nd sewn up regardless

Jacks probably out next week lookin at how he limped off, no bussey in the second half

Cannot believe we will see an unfit Jono Ford more than likely take to the field and try and guide us round the park vs leigh

Looking forward to the day session round leeds, hopefully will not see the bash game
