Friday 7th April: C1: Oldham v Rochdale Hornets: “Great Friday” KO 7.30pm Whitebank Stadium

[The Art of Hand and Foot]

It's a double edged sword. We need people to come, BUT , if people are turned away they may be put off and not come again!

[ManchesterYed]

Can’t wait for the derby game tomorrow. It’s sure to be a cracker with two out of form teams going toe to toe.

 

with recent Additions I’ve got hornets as favourites with no Gregory McNally in the squad and lack of prop forwards for us, I hope Meodows is fit. 
 

let’s go yeds   

[tandle]

i agree fully with whatyou have said m.y, if anybody watched the dewsbury v widnes game.

in the interviews after the match liam finn  the dewsbury coach was being  interviewed, the interviewer said that the dewsbury backs played very well. finn replied  that is what you get playing behind a very good pack.take notice oldham.

Great game in prospect. Just hope the referee keeps a tight grip on what should be a blood and snot spectacle.

Is the lad playing who started all the trouble last year with us losing two players and the hairnets getting away with their shenanigins?

All 3 Rochdale players involved no longer at the club. Still say Mazey was lucky to get away with his involvement.

5 props in the 21

No news of the Rochdale team yet. I presume Dave Hewitt will play. Hope he doesn’t come back to bite us.

Rochdale have drafted a prop and winger in from vikings

Don’t want to tempt fate but if they played against Dewsbury I’m not too worried.

Wish we could be there but Sue is working tonight. Enjoy the game and give the boys an extra Come on You Yeds from us. This is the big one,  El FlatCapicco. For the inter parish games at Wig On and 'Ull.

I'll be thinking of the Hairnets fans on their long trip home aka The Trail of Tears

Agree with this, we have 3 prop forwards of any kind of note. We need to go and invest in some strong ball carrying prop forwards or we are going to be left behind.

 

hornets by 10 unfortunately

Hirst is a second row

Meadows is a prop hence him being number 10 

Both of them not playing today.

i suggest herbie that you go to squad for 2023 page 14 scroll down to bedford roughyed.

and if they are props and oldham are short of props, why are they not playing today.

because they are not props.

Oldham Community Radio should be covering the game.

There are a bunch of listening options on that link.

Yes Captain Hewitt will lead out our heros

[tandle]

according to the oldham community radio schedule for today 7-30 pm to 9-00 pm is folk music.

maybe they will change it.

Nice job….I regret the disappearance of the hard copy programme (my partner on the other hand is delighted I wont need another cupboard), but the economics wins this one I suppose.

Can’t wait for tonight!

I suggest Tandle you attend more games. If you did youd see Meadows with a 10 on his back playing prop in every game so far. Same with Hirst coming on as a backrower.

Meadows is injured.

Hirst not picked this week.

Enjoy Corrie tonight.

[tandle]

herbie they may have to play prop due to the shortage of props. they are not prop forwards

and i dont watch corrie.

i am going to watch the aussie games played today on the nrl channel.
