Worst 1st half performance at home by York I've seen for a few years

I did consider getting along to the LNER this afternoon. Figured York-Haven would be a close game - a decent watch for a neutral. Thank goodness I didn't waste twenty quid on that. At this rate, it won't be long before York's crowds are back into the hundreds. Super League?

I've never seen York this bad. That's a relegation outfit based on that first half.

[Hopping Mad]

York 0-30 Haven.

[wilsontown]

This is just completely unacceptable from York.

[Hopping Mad]

York 0-36 Haven.

York's 'Barnstoneworth United' moment.

[Hopping Mad]

York 6-36 Haven.

Hunslet just took the lead against Keighley, in a tougher contest than maybe the hosts expected.

Still, at least the presenters and cameraman got tea and cake, courtesy of the club.

That one's League 1 rather than Championship. But a great game nonetheless.

Dons in control until 5 minutes before and after HT. I feared the worst in the 2nd half as we were literally the walking wounded. To push Widnes to the last set of the game makes me proud of the lads. Very glad to have a week off. I reckon it'd be a different result had Pauli not failed HIA early in the game but it is what it is. Well done Widnes.

This game was everything I expected when I realised I recognised most of the Doncaster team. Delighted to come out on the right side of it. Pretty sure we'd have lost it in recent seasons.

Not a good watch for Knights fans today, very poor in every department, no go forward, or shape, to be fair Haven were nothing special but they played straightforward honest rugby with bags of enthusiasm unlike York.I don’t know what has happened there , confidence looked shot to pieces, Harris came off injured looked like a shoulder problem, Dagger binned for 10 mins after telling the ref the haven player had dropped the ball when scoring, no excuse. Discipline and poor game management also an issue at the moment. I still don’t get why we need so many coaches, surely it just confuses things, there should be one guy telling them, that’s it. The players were gutted at full time, so it isn’t as if they aren’t trying and booing them like happened at half time doesn’t do anyone any good.

I can’t see any light at the end of the tunnel unfortunately.

next week could be embarrassing!

[Havenwarrior2021]

that will do haven proud fan traveling home now awesome today lads should have been more don’t think much of york though.
