Another good win for us yesterday. Gifted the 2 Mayfield tries but was happy with the result.

Got a possible midweek fixture which we've only just found out about as no one from SV has been in touch to ask are we ok.

We hammered Judes who were a completely different side to when we played them early in the season, one of their coaching staff said the 1sts had took 8 of their better players from previous weeks.

It was still a good team performance from us though and the winning run continues.

2 big away games coming for us on the bounce now, Latchford then HFH.

We informed the league as per instruction before the season started that we required next weekend as a free week as it is one of the lads stag dos....the NWML website reflects that this was a midweek fixture and has done for a while.

It is the leagues responsibility to communicate this to you mate.

Struggling for numbers mate, travelled with 14 men again yesterday, i popped my ribs in the first ten minutes which left us with 13, the lad who came on for me was playing his first game of rugby league!

Trouble is we had a small squad to start of with and once you get lads working, and on stag dos etc etc aswell as the wigan v saints game kicking off at the same time we are gonna be struggling. We've been nowere near turning the side out that won the league last year...we have only lost one lad whos retired through injury, its just lads arent available on Saturdays at this time of year.

We could just do with 3/4 more regulars to fill the gaps when were short, but the thing is with local sides such as Pats, IRB, Judes, Cuthberts, Hindley & Riversiders turning 2 and some cases 3 teams out, then there arent many lads to pick from, we are relying on new lads that are brand new to the game.

Hopefully its as bad as its gonna get and things will start picking up. We play you men in midweek I think so we will see if we can turn a stronger side out.

I didnt see much of the game after I went off but im led to believe the referee was a disgrace.

To be honest I spoke to him just before the kick off and at the toss and he was an arogant git then aswell...I tried to tell him that we had glass and dog poop under our sticks he basically said "what do you want me to do about it!"....idiot.

i posted this at the beginning of May!

Home team Secretary has to make contact with the opposing team before the game, I had to ring yours to find out as David Lowe wasn't sure if it was a typo or not.

Anyway we are looking forward to the game, see you Weds.

SV 12 HFH 16

Good performance from our lads and pushed all the way by SV.

Dire conditions and even worse referee but happy with the 2 points.

Sv 10-14 hfh

Great game I thought considering the condition , as cowisearse said we were missing a few tonight but played prob better than we have of late, hfh are prob IMO the best side we've played I think another 5 mins maybe we could have snatched it, to many turnovers at the start of the second half that made the diff, but hfh played clever rugby forcing us to play off are own line which made it hard for us in the end , we'll done to both sides!
