Buck the Broncos in Blackpool : Thu Nov 20, 2014 11:15 am  

Summer Bash fixtures have been announced and we'll be playing the third game on the first day against London Broncos! Looking forward to it as it should be a good weekend, a weekend where Championship rugby gets the publicity it duly deserves. Come on Eagles!!

Nice to have a derby game against the London Hendos .....

I noticed some Super League fans whinging - just for a change - that in a promotion/relegation season it seems wrong for the RFL to select the games as it may be unfair.

Sheffield Eagles against one of the full-time sides? Seems a good challenge to me.


Anyone out there got a date for when the new shirts are shown,and available for purchase,and is there a season launch date?

Tubbs is trying to get Pete Green a testimonial match similar to what Hendo had v York. I would imagine there'd be one or two pre-season matches due to how many we've signed and them sort of matches will do the team chemistry a lot of good.

Hmmmm - like it did last year ?

Has Pete got his Testimonial through ? That's the first step - there's no Testimonial match without a Testimonial season.

I should imagine he has seen as Tubby spoke about it at the fans forum. The club were, at the time of the first fans forum, wanting to set up another at the New Barrack in the December. Hopefully we'll find out more about pre-season, 2015 kits etc then.

That's good news.

Well, good speculation, anyway.
