Expatknight Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Plenty of character shown out there today, just like the York we love, yet again some unusual decisions, both ways I hasten to add, by the officials, not so sure Kirmo deserved the red card, will be interesting to see the video of it though. What’s gone wrong with Glovers kicking ? He can usually kick goals for fun from anywhere, probably even the M & S car park! Must have had some new boots on. Friday night should be a cracker especially if we have some more of the squad available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hull kr at home would be my choice in the next round Next round already drawn. Newcastle at home for today's winners. Super League clubs not in the draw until the round after next.

Fax Knight Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Superb effort from a mix-and-match team. What a great signing Bailey is and seeing various young ladies greeting him at the end of the match, the lad is clearly doing his bit to get more fans down to games. Hope he’s on commission. Can only assume Taii and Michael weren’t fully fit given the few minutes they has on the pitch? Red card seemed very harsh and, as others have said, looked like a trip on Marsh after a great Thompson break (he looked back to his best today and that made a big difference) to. Hope we get more bodies back for Friday. Well done all. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puk Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 What a fabulous performance today only spoiled by the man in in the middle,kirkmond red card was never a red and should have been ten in the bin a at the most again Bailey was excellent,but would give the team so much more if played on the fringes and nice of Hendo to acknowledge the backing it got from the supporters today but wish more of them would come and join us in getting behind the team. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was definitely a trip on Marsh wish Taii would run with his size and thought our three quarters were excellent today against a decent Sheffield back line.

Made a joke of the competition and they wonder why they can't fill Wembley Stadium. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea around what time the trip was? I’ve watched the entire second half on BBC iPlayer and haven’t spotted it, yet during the game I noticed the potential trip.

Expatknight Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Bailey has been a tremendous signing for us, he is a machine and still learning, I can see a big future for him if he continues like he is. The two loanees did well I thought too, especially as both of them are only kids. Things are starting to look up on the injury front too, should have more bodies back next week, then we need to keep a stable 17 for a few weeks, we might build some momentum then. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgeb1 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Enthusiasm and effort won that today plus some very good coaching, A special mention to A J towse and Myles Harrison who are now showing the faith placed in them over the last couple of years , the young loan signings are also doing a great job, that was back to a normal York performance let's carry that on in both the league and cup and with a few more casualties returning soon my glass is half full again . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not entirely convinced the trip on Matty was intentional and Matty didn't react as though it was. Having said that the amount of clear headshots allowed to go unpunished was quite shocking! There were at least four on Bailey alone. I'm not saying they were intentional as I don't think the Eagles are that type of side but someone should take Mr Vella aside and show him the difference between shoulder/chest and head! With two different sides he would have been in the middle of a war! What a display by Jordy Tommo - he was everywhere! We were down to twelve but he worked hard enough for three players. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, it baffles me how Liam got mom on RL website? Why was he even in the running. Tommo, bailey and Fitzsimmons all had massive games imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expatknight Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 correct me if I am wrong but aren't the gate numbers provided by the stadium management company? this company is to all intents and purposes YCFC and nothing to do with the Knights, in an ideal world one would hope that such info would be equally availble to both clubs but.......... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well "Fandom" is pillar 1 of the IMG, with "Performance" pillar 2. There's 25% allocated to each pillar. So there's that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it if you are at Odsal in 1954 but why is Joe Knight bothered how many others were at the same game as him? On the other matter, well, I can obviously see why you might want to keep your attendance under the radar if IMG are gonna judge you on it.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think fans tend to see it as part of how well their club is going, though the announced attendance these days at a lot of clubs seems to include season ticket holders whether they are present or not, which kind of negates from the interest a little. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
