We had some very good players back then. Tiny Solomons - would you try and get in his way without up to date life insurance? Not me.

Any truth in the rumour that Whittle has left the club? If he has it's a massive loss.

Its stated on the roughyeds website yesterday that he has left but no reason given. Sad news for sure

[jroyales]

Has he joined Oldham's A team overthill?

We had to let him go to accommodate Bob Lindner on the overseas quota.

Lindner was outstanding. A real leader. Scared of nobody.

⁹Start of a great weekend. We sitting in the Derngate Theatre in Northampton just watched Inspiral Carpets with Happy Mondays to follow. Then only three more sleeps to the big game. Yay

You think you will be able to sleep…. you will probably be having nightmares

 

Safe travels.

Off topic a little but here goes - Haven't heard anything on the women's team,any info anyone?

[sheddingswasus]

Seem to remember there were some issues and the club closed it down until resolved. There was a news article on it but I can’t find it at the moment. The appointment of Beth Sutcliffe is part of the pathway going forward.

That's a shame. The women's game is really coming on. It'd be a shame if the club wasn't part of it.

They said they plan to restart it at some point hence the appoint of Beth Sutcliffe. But it won’t be a priority I guess as I am sure there are no IMG points for running one.

Thanks for the info. It's a shame for the player's who initially put the time and effort in.

Liam Bent on a month’s loan from Widnes to Rochdale.

I see Keighley piled on the points yesterday as did Midland. I still feel it will come down to points difference at the end of the season. We should have played our strongest team against Cornwall and scored as many as we could. After Hunslet we could have scored over 80.

My concern is we haven't played a decent side yet or is it we are just too good - i sense the latter.

I can't imagine we are too worried about points difference so early in the season - Sean will be confident his team will beat Keighley 3 times and it won't be an issue.

I wonder if Keighley are thinking the same. Who and why it was decided we play them at their place twice.

[m brooksy]

The three games against Keighley makes points difference a bit redundant this year. Whoever wins two of those games will be going up.

How very dare you!  Not played a decent team? Remember Gods team were missing most of their best players when we met a few weeks ago. Now we have them back be ready for a proper battle when we get you back at the Crown Royal.

And of course we could do you a favour this weekend. All welcome.
