Keighley 26th May

[jroyales]

Can't wait for this one.

If we play as we have been doing we should win comfortably. I've heard  three coaches are going and upteen cars. It should be a great atmosphere. Like the players keep saying it will be like playing at home.

Oldham by 20.

Could you make it a few more points….by end of month they could be struggling to keep above Hornets. Now wouldnt that look good, first and second from each end of Royton.

[jroyales]

Depends in which order?

[Anita Bath]

With you lot playing keighley three times I think we need you to beat them three times which pretty much determines the order.

[jroyales]

When we beat them three times will you finish second?

Don't forget we'll have beaten you twice as well

[Bedford Roughyed]

I hope no one is banned after the little coming together at Cornwall.  

[m brooksy]

Any bans wouldn't come in until the following week so should be OK. Don't mind showing a bit of fire a times

Suppose hypothetically of course, we were to lose the game at San Spotty to you lot (injury crisis, bad refereeing etc) but you manage to beat Keighley three times and we beat them at San Spotty. Thats four losses for them but only one for the Hornets from now until the end of the regular season.

Voila!

[Anita Bath]

Or scenario B….you lose all three to Keighley and we give you a pasting at San Spotty….thats four losses for you and four losses for Hornets.

 

I prefer scenario A myself.

[Roughyed Rats]

Perhaps not quite season defining but nevertheless the most difficult and important game of the season so far. If we come away with the two points, it will put us massively in the driving seat. I expect Ellis and Koppy to be back in. If we perform at our best, Keighley will struggle to hold us. With a big following, the atmosphere should be great. Can't wait.

Sunday I'm going by car does anyone know the quickest route to kieghley, on boxing day we went and went through Bradford but it seemed to take us ages to get through Bradford . 

[clifford]

I usually go via Colne and drop down via Skipton. Lovely route

Sorry, same here going by car but not sure of any alternative route that doesnt take you through the delights of Bradford  One tip though if travelling by car is to get there early. Keighley's ground is in the middle of an Industrial estate so plenty of on road parking HOWEVER I got there a bit late for the Boxing Day fixture and only just managed to find a space in the ar$e end of nowhere a long walk from the ground. Looks like though on Sunday there will be a bumper crowd there so i advise anyone travelling by car to get there early doors to try and bag a parking space otherwise you may be struggling!!

[Tim G]

Any thoughts on how many Oldham fans will we take on Sunday. There are 4 in my car and none of us have been to an away game in years.

[tandle]

drive to todmorden turn right to hebden bridge.

come to the centre of hebden briide.

drive through till you see a sign on the left'

saying keighley / haworth the a6033.

the road goes over a large moor.

after about 5 miles you will come to a small round about.

go straight across, that then leads into keighley centre.

We got there early enough so there was plenty of space for on road parking, we parked on the other side of the cricket ground, it was about a five or ten minute walk.

And can look out for steam trains.  

[Tangle]

4 going in our car as always best way to go is take the keighley road out of Halifax  park on the street next to Mac Donald’s

[tandle]

the quickest way is like i said turn left at hebden bridge.

the moorland road the A6033 is the main keighley rd.

runs  straight into keighley a very smooth road.

very few cars no traffic lights and can cruise at an easy 40 mph. 

[fiftiesremembered]

gutted that I am probably unable to go due to serious family illness down South.

Can't see anywhere giving commentary or live match.

Any help?

M66/M65 to Colne  then A6068 to Crosshills you  then join the A629 towards Keighley takes you straight to the Ground.
