Dewsbury on Sunday .........

[Unicorn 106]

I’m quite pleased, that 2nd half would have been a tough listen.

So Haven and Barrow at home and we're away and we still dont get commentary.

Calum gave it a good go and at 8 all at half time I was getting hopeful.

Injuries seemed to stop us in the 2nd half and we shipped 30 points.

A bit like what happened at home really

Afraid you don’t have a choice. RC hardly even cover our matches.

The sooner this season is over the better. Big improvements required for next season if we are to get out of this terrible league.

The lads we put out today really gave it a go and we're in the game for 50mins.

Put Henson and Barnes back into the side and we would be stronger still

.Add Thomson and Steele and Curwen and ⁹

We can still get out of this league, you realise that right?

Any sign of these players coming back for the play offs?

thats ok as long as callum continues?

I know we haven’t beaten any contenders but I still think under Dews there’s no one really standing out , certainly on what I’ve seen . You need your best players out there though to have at least a sniff 

[Therein73]

I wouldn't give up all hope of success in the play-offs...... Your guys dug deep today and showed a real spirit ..... Only when you got players injured and busted did we get on top and take the game away from you ....... If you've some decent players to come back I reckon you could have a right crack at it...... Great set of supporters today and really added to the atmosphere both in the ground and the Royal Suite afterwards ........ True Rugby League afternoon - Well done !!!

We competed with the run away leaders for 50 minutes, considering the top players we have missing that was a brilliant effort. Well done, would be great to get the likes of Barnes, Henson, Key and the rest back for the play offs.

Can someone explain play offs pls?........is it top four, five, six?

Whatever it will be a tough task from one of the lower positions which will most likely be an away trip?

Although some clubs are equally as inconsistent as Town............Certainly Doncaster are hard to weigh up....beat us last week, signed some alleged top players during week, and lost at Crusaders today, what the heck?...If our large injury list can be repaired quickly play off success could be possible. Apart from Dewsbury going up I think Hunslet might now be a good bet to join them.

A lot of inconsistency in teams is down to Dual Reg.

With Loans you know your squad better -DR can change at  minutes notice.

It should be scrapped - it is only there to help SL who Hoover up all the prospects and expect us to give them a game?

Pleased Muzza doesn't use it its awful for the game.

I know we used it in the past with Phil Vievers and we got to see some of Wigan Players who went on to be great " Manfredi etc- but its not good for a squad or the game.

Dewsbury promoted, 2nd to 5th play 2 semi finals and final. We would probably have to visit Huntley, the struggled against Rochdale today.

[town blue]

2nd plays 5th, 3rd plays 4th - 5th team will never play at home regardless of play off results.

Wasn’t aware of the process, it’s only a couple of years ago that we were in it. we could still get another home game then

Hunslet should hold no fear for us, remember at there place we would have got a least drew had Sabutey unfortunately not dropped the ball over the line in last minute, provided we can put a strong team out that is.

Different formats guys......not "simples" to me now.

[the old nine ole]

You should be proud of your team today ... they never gave up despite a few of them clearly carrying injuries.. your full back Burns was playing on one leg for over an hour .. he never gave up!! When he came off it was clear he was in excruciating pain... I hope you can regroup for the playoffs!!
