Neil's Notes v Leigh/Away Travel : Mon Mar 14, 2016 9:42 am
Well yesterday's game went the same way as all the previous defeats. Got ourselves in a winning position and then could not maintain it. The Championship is a very tight division this year but we must start getting points on the table as you get nothing for a narrow defeat but I am sure we can turn things around. In the Shay Lounge Player of the Season Adam Tangata took first place and 3 points followed by Gareth Moore on 2 and 3rd with 1 point Miles Greenwood who soon settled in after being out 12 months with a broken leg. Gareth takes a early 3 point lead with 6 points after the first 3 games.
Richard Moore took the Hitman award sponsored by Halifax RLFC Players Ass with some really strong and important tackles.
The first draw for Club 1873 takes place after the Swinton game on Sunday 4th April. We have now reached 122 members so we are nearly at last years total of 145.See me in the Shay Lounge or in front of the main stand on match days.
Our first donation from Club 1873 and away travel to the Supporters Trust towards the reserve side was made yesterday of £500. This along with the £230 paid for coach travel for the reserve side makes a total of £730 so far this season. Thank you to Twin Valley for there support of our reserve side travel.
Thank you for all your support.
Yesterday's half time draw winning number was 7167 for £225.
Next week sees a break from the Championship when we go to Pilkington Recs on Saturday 19th March in the Ladbrokes Challenge Cup. The game will be played at Langtree Park St Helens with a 2.30pm Ko. The supporters coach leaves at 12.15pm from the top of Hunger Hill as there is no parking at the Shay due to the football being at home in an important semi final which could see them getting to Wembley. All the best. Fare is £10 with juniors £5. After that on Good Friday 25th March we are at Oldham. The game is being played at Stalybridge Celtic FC, Ko 3.00pm. We leave at 1.15pm from the Shay Car Park. Adults £9 and juniors £4.
To book of any of these phone me on 07714488080.
