I think it will be a big test for us this season but we have recruited well and kept all of last years squad which was decent to start with.

I'll be happy if we get something out of our local derbies and make a good fist of the season.

Heard that teams in division 1 had been asked about stepping up to the premier and that Haresfinch have taken up the challenge. Any truth in that?

I haven't heard that about Haresfinch, but nothing would surprise me as the structure keeps changing at one point the Prem had 12 teams in it.

I think there is a Management meeting coming up early Feb so hopefully everything will be finalised along with fixtures, bored now with nothing to do on a Saturday

I wish they would just release the fixtures. Doing my head in being asked by the players 29 times a day

They are sending out provisional fixtures to clubs this week, I have a copy of ours we play Shevington & Ashton in our first two weeks.

There are no cups in the fixtures so would assume they will change once cup games go in, hopefully anyway as it has the season finishing on August 3rd

I asked if they could do a premier cup like the old style NWC to beef up the fixtures maybe if all clubs agree on it we can can get it in the fixtures.

How did you get on Saturday?

We lost 34-10 at West Bank but played a mixture of first and second just a fitness session really

Re: NWML Premier Division 2013 : Tue Feb 12, 2013 12:57 pm  

we won 22-10 pal could have been allot more considering we only kicked one conv. Ashton game with a big strong squad.
was a close hard game.

Really poor conditions though and I wouldnt take too much from it in terms of the season in front of us both, but considerring we had only done one ball session so far this pre season, we were really pleased with how we went.

Our pre season so far has been spent in a boxing gym working on conditioning, wrestling etc, and to be fair out fitness levels on saturday reflected it.
