Today's cup round game ended up being a one sided affair for the Stanley Rangers U14s. With all due respect to the Wigan St Pats side they wasn't even in the same league standard but did for most of the game try and put a valiant resistance in sporadic bursts within the game and nearly cross the line to score.
It did finish a heavy defeat at 64-0, but for a side that had been reduced to 14 before the start due to players leaving and injury and then to suffer two more of their players to knocks in the game then reduce them to twelve men in the second half it was quite understandable why the second half collapse happened
while being happy with the result you do come away thinking that you wished it had been a more of a challenge.
The draw for the next round was then made in the club house and we have been lucky enough to get another home draw but have drawn one of the better sides Widnes St Maries
now time to prove our selves against the best from over the pennines
tough one also for Normy Knights
