How is it drip feed? It was published like every club in the championship at 8am this morning which was released by the club on social media like fev, Oldham, York and the rest of the clubs including league 1 

onto Oldham I think it will be a nice to be back facing them at boundary park haven’t faced them there since 2006… some good memories including the John Gallagher game for the loyal fans…

Hopefully a decent even contest and good to see a traditional club heading back in the right direction.

Always enjoy Oldham as a game and club 

2002 semi finals of the NFP play offs was the game I will remember along with the trans pennine cup

A fair decent one 

[LINNERS]

Maybe around 100, but with a fair wind could push 200 for this one.

How many of you Bulldogs fans remember coming to Boundary Park on a snow-covered pitch in 1982?

This will be a tough one especially with their current squad recruitment and the fact that they will already have played in round 1! A good benchmark for us tho. And who on earth likes going to Oldham in freezing Feb?

Yep, I was there.

If memory serves Batley were well-beaten, and half the crowd went down with frost-bite.

York will soft them up for us 

[phildog]

That match in the snow was a comfy home win, had to park in a supermarket or shopping outlet  if I remember rightly. As for following sheddingswasus, you'll know we're there, a bus full and lots will make the short journey on their own.

Challenge cup see’s us at Newcastle away

More than likely this will be played at Blaydon Rugby Club. We're just waiting for sign off from The RFL to play there this season.

What's wrong with the Gateshead Stadium.
