phildog Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Right, we were told by Mokko that he couldn't get the regular friendly v HW Select due to (stupid) RFL rules about amateur no-contact period in January. Hey presto, a plethora of amateur clubs get into the 1st round proper of the Challenge Cup ( possibly some into the 2nd round) both of which are scheduled to be played in, guess when, yes JANUARY. Now Wath Brow have pulled out citing the above RFL directive, which poses questions. First, does the idiotic RFL realise that it has contravened its own rule? (I suspect that they haven't the foggiest idea). Second are those amateur clubs who play breaking RFL rules? Third, are amateur clubs within their rights to refuse to play in rounds 1 and 2 in January for fear of RFL reprisals? 4th, if the RFL allows these games to go ahead then could the HW Select also decide that they can play after all? Remember folks, this RFL is the body that actually pretends to run our game!! Management Committee 'my a*se' to quote Jim Royle!! 1
9' oller Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Also 600+ d.b.s checks sat on a desk of rfl red hall since November. These won't be processed whilst this former ref is suspended, his special office friend also on erm leave. 'Shaw cross juniors, Birkenshaw, Mirfield, Heckmondwike Panthers, Stainland Stags and then the Heavy woolen donkeys... WARDY, STOZZA, GT, KARL OR KEAR MUST OF DROPPED A DIGIT FROM MY MOBILE NUMBER!
phildog Posted January 6 Author Posted January 6 How do I connect these 2 pieces together 9' oller....
bromleybulldog Posted January 14 Posted January 14 3rd round draw Home v Dewsbury/Dewsbury Moor/Haresfinch 1

bromleybulldog Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Good incentive to get to round 3- hopefully a local derby versus one of the Dewsbury clubs!!
Blind side johnny Posted January 14 Posted January 14 A bigger incentive would have been a home tie against a SL club. Both HW "lower league" clubs have managed to grasp short straws! Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change.
phildog Posted January 14 Author Posted January 14 Bromley, you guessed right, hope 'The Moor- have a change strip, as there's a colour clash!!

In RL isn't it the tradition for the home side to change strip in the case of a clash? 1 Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change.

phildog Posted January 15 Author Posted January 15 Why then does the RFL want clubs to have home and away strips then? It was however a tongue in cheek remark....
