If the possible suspension is Roden, he had his appeal upheld and will serve a 2 match ban.

[Yorks Tim]

Hornets by 10-12.

 

[Dovster]

Hornets just by 4. I'm expecting a very good game.

[Chronicler of Chiswick]

Hunslet by 6.

I was hoping it was going to be on the Sportsman on YouTube....I've just checked and its not on. Nothing on the Sportsman until the League 1 playoff 'final' on 6th October (Keighley v Rochdale or Hunslet)

I think the decision to show the wheelchair game was made a while ago when they announced they were showing a series of 6 games. I was hoping that they may have had permission to show todays playoff game

Listening to the playoff game on BBC Radio Manchester. Hunslet came good with 8 tries and a romping second half. Hornets discipline letting them down. 26 - 46

[Dovster]

Never expected a 20 point margin. Credit to Hunslet as its not an easy place to go and get a result.

[Anita Bath]

Hornets wthout both half backs, goalkicker and hooker. Wigan would struggle without them.

If swinton win the play off for last spot in championship Hornets will be the only red rose team in league one next season. So much for the heartlands.

Aye, and not many White Rose ones either. A groundhopper's delight next season.

...if you like long journeys!! I did start to work out how many miles I travelled to watch North Wales Crusaders this year ...reminder that a home game is a 96 mile round trip for me. I gave up counting in March! We had two away trips to Cornwall this season, so thats near enough 1400 on its own!

[Anita Bath]

Aye, most teams a hell of a long way from the M62.

Expansion in action and its not working at that level.

Probably only 3 teams near the M62 in League 1 - Rochdale, Hunslet and Goole...I suppose Keighley is next nearest then Dewsbury ....and Swinton could come down but that would mean Keighley or Hunslet would be promoted. All other teams are a fair distance away. 

It must be daunting (and costly) for Cornwall to have to travel to Newcastle, Workington, Goole and Whitehaven for 4 of their away games in 2025!

Cornwall are playing in 2025, you will be relieved to hear. They are trying to transfer their licence to Bedford.
