Thanks BB. I was hoping for an evening ko as I'm working Saturday.

We just have to win this one... I don't fear any of the teams left in the 1895 Cup and oh to see Batley at Wembley

Isn't it also 3 o'clock on Sunday when we are supposed to be receiving this emergency text message test, save us from using the hooter I suppose

No offence to the kick off but no game ever kicks off on time these days I bet it will kick off 3.03

Easy win for the mighty Doggies, surely?

We will have to play a lot better than we did at bradford for this one! We did what we had to do at bradford, we ground out a win on a heavy pitch against not such a great side, not saying keighley are any better but, I expect this game to be a bit more open so we will have to be a lot sharper this week!

Not easy, no.

The Cougars are a decent team...and are getting better every week, in my opinion. 

Hopefully we will be up for the challenge.

I think this is true re Keighley. But l also think it is true of us. I know the performance at Bradford wasn't great but it was their first defeat at home this season so we must have done something right.

Will be a different team this weekend, no Hooley, no Manning. Will Linners move Bucko into the 2nd row, Kear inside to replace him? That leaves both wing spots to be re-filled. Is Leaky fit, Ward to get a game?

[phildog]

Birstall, they're below us and got a beating last week....

[ginaldo]

i think Linners will move McGowan back to full back and fetch Morton

onto the wing and Ward back in the forwards, dont think Leaky will be fit

counts for nothing in a one off cup match

[phildog]

Think Morton will replace McGowan on the wing and JC in on the other.

Why do you think JC will play? I think Hodson and Buchanan will be centres he could start Nyle Flynn who’s probably deserves a shot in the next two games with Ward returning on the bench
