Could the present incumbent of fourth spot please enlighten him as to what exactly went on in the last half an hour at The Keepmoat? Ouch!!

I'm not sure I can ... Little or no creativity, no game management and generally, very poor defensively.

Previous head coach returns to upset the favourites with his new team.

A really bad day at the office.

Evening, Wanderer. Pretty sure that most Leythers can empathise save that, on day one of our season, Rowley came back to upset our favourites with our old team. Let's see though if the boot is on the other hand this weekend.

Go Leythe!!

To business and, as promised here are this week’s “ ‘ave a bashs.”

Saturday:

Barrow XX-XX Sheffield
Halifax XX-XX Featherstone
Trannies X-XXX Leigh

Sunday:

Toulouse XX-XX London
Rochdale XX-XX Swinton
Batley XX-XX Dewsbury

As for BBQ, let’s run with the one from round one but with Bongser being a bit clearer (edited quotation):

Bent&Bongser wrote:

How many different TRY scorers will there be in the Tee vee Leigh game that are past or present Leigh players? (TEN POINTS)

IF AND ONLY IF YOU SCREW THE ABOVE ANSWER TO THE FLOOR -

Novelty Bonus: Name them beforehand for three points a pop. Any posts that name more players than predicted in the main bonus question will be ignored.

EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT!!

Three of the bashos (anyone else recall the Sumo in the early days of Channel 4?) see present top six clubs pitted agin one another. Six points will, therefore (barring seriously high tides), be dropped by the sides in the top half of the Championship this weekend.

Do you gentlemen recall that, a few weeks ago, bold predictions were made on whether the top four would contain the Cherry & Whites? Those preds still stand but, down the line things are a little less opaque.

Now Bongser has thought not so long and not very hard about this, but can preach to the converted and others that Leigh will have a further (away) match versus the faux Canadiennes (they cut down trees, they wear high heels, suspendies and a bra (the last accoutrement presumably collectively)), plus another away day in Toulouse and, before our Odysseys, a Homer with ‘Fax.

The other (again present) top-six clashes yet to come are, by Bongser’s addled reckoning:

Trannies vs London
Toulouse vs London
‘Fax vs Fex
London vs ‘Fax
Fev vs London
‘Fax vs Toulouse
Trannies vs Feather Boas

Toronto, with due respect, have the meaningless shield in the bag, but Bongser asks all of the assembled (for less points than before) to name the other three Championship qualifiers for the Middle 8s.

Example answer (and using League One clubs merely to avoid leading the jury):

2: West Wales
3. Coventry
4. York

Name any of ‘em (any order) for five points a pop. All correct and in the true order will earn a further 'Pony' of points.

This pred league is far from over!

As ever, good luck!
