Well back to winning ways following our disappointing defeat to Featherstone. Things could not be tighter at the top with Featherstone just 3 points behind with a game in hand and scoring difference just as close.
With a break now for the next two games its on with cup rugby with Sheffield this Friday in the 5th round of the Tetleys Challenge Cup. The match kicks off at 8.00pm and is at the Don Valley. The Club are subsidising coach travel with all seats £6. We leave the Shay at 6.00pm. You can phone me in the normal way to book your places and pay on the day or you can pre purchase from the club during the week. I will be at the Shay from 5.00pm so supporters should arrive as soon as possible so we can be away at 6.00pm. Final details of coach travel will be available later this week for our trip to Dewsbury in the Northern Rail play offs.
The last week in May sees us back in league action at Sheffield again but this time at Bramall Lane on Friday 24th May and a 7.30 Ko.
Yesterday's first prize of a £25 voucher for the Club shop in Club 1873 draw was number 98 Dave Haggerty and the £20 voucher went to number 32, Bill Bradley.
In the Shay Lounge Player of the Season Anthony Thackeray was first and collects the 3 points with second and 2 points to Ryan Fieldhouse with 3rd and 1 point Scott Murrell. Scott still leads with 12 points but Anthony is now just 1 point behind on 11 with a gap now to third place with Sam Barlow on 6 points.
Dane Manning picked up the Hitman award sponsored by Halifax RLFC Players Ass.
