Bearintown Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Looking for a win this week , but think we will lose when we go away the next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homeandawayer Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I think Oldham were feeling the effects of three games in a week so should be close. Not getting carried away with that win good as it was but apart from Caine we've a strong squad to pick from , the next test is to beat a top 4 team away as long as we don't slip up on Sunday.

WTRLFC WEBSITE Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 1 hour ago, DavidM said: What’s Caine’s injury again ? To confirm Caine has had an operation on a pectoral injury and Earl Hurst has has successful surgery on bicep tear. Both will not play again in 2023 season due to the recovery periods involved.

The Voodooguru Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Matty has supposedly done a rib too. The race is not always to the swift nor the battle to the strong, but thats the way to bet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Town utd Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Time to start marwood then,he's been great off the bench,let him start 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Winthorpe Posted September 1, 2023 Author Share Posted September 1, 2023 Marwood must start and show what he can do for next year as a 9. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Town utd Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 I would still like to see walker an marwood play at half together,I think they would make a great partnership,both take the line on and brave in defence, with good support play,town must get a over seas forward to go with Bradley and Stephenson who can brake the line so the halfs can support.

Peter Winthorpe Posted September 3, 2023 Author Share Posted September 3, 2023 Does not seem to be much comments on this match. It's going to be a warm sunny day, ⁸does that improve or reduce the gate? I hope we finish with a good run in the playoffs but this will be our last home game whatever the result today so can we put on a good performance without Matty who makes us tick.

yanto Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) Listening live in Holland but when Walshy asks "Joe" Any questions the commentary goes dead. Who is Joe ??? Anyone in the Granstand tell John Tomo is complaining . 10-8 Town score as I'm typing. Edited September 3, 2023 by yanto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Aitcheson Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 You’re right Ian, I’m listening from Scotland and the commentary is abysmal. I’m afraid that Walshy is having a bad day ( sorry John) and Joe Kirkup ( presumably) isn’t miked up correctly. There are long periods of crowd noise and nothing else. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onreport Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Yes, Missing players and a few playing injured but have to say that was poor, last tackle options were non existent yet again, lots to work on for next season, but overall better season than I expected to be fair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkw Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 That 2nd 40 was one of the worst half's I've seen us play in a long time. Aimless, no ideas in attack, terrible defence. 2 tries from acting half and 2 from scrums is just abysmal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were never good enough to go up , build on this season, finance's and off field systems have been brilliant, get a couple of experience players in key positions and have a good crack next season, I've really enjoyed seeing things develop this year and can't complain, well done everyone concerned with the club we are in a far better position than we have been in the past.UTT 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derwent Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 We seemed like a team that were content that it’s job done for the season by finishing where we expected. Being realistic we weren’t going to progress any further so can’t really blame them. Disappointing but not the end of the world. 1 I’m not prejudiced, I hate everybody equally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Voodooguru Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Absolutely awful 2nd half, as poor as I've seen. Really disappointing to be honest. But in the bigger picture it's too early for promotion for the current squad, and we'd have probably lost money if we got through two away games and not been promoted. On the whole its been a much better season than last when we had players not interested in playing for the jersey. Still need some strengthening in some key areas, but from where we were it's been great progress. UTT! 3 The race is not always to the swift nor the battle to the strong, but thats the way to bet!
