Thanks DM, we really could do with making a statement tomorrow, Oldham and Crusaders made theirs today.
Presuming the top four places are going to be filled (as they say on Britain's Got Talent
) in no particular order by: Dewsbury, Dons, Oldham and Hunslet, with the games between the four primarlily determining who finishes where. Here are the fixtures:
Dewsbury: Cornwall (a), Rochdale (h),
Oldham (h), Midlands (a), N Wales (h),
Hunslet (a), Workington (h),

Hunslet: Cornwall (h), N Wales (a),

After today, Dewsbury have got four at home and four away. The Dons and Oldham each have four home games and five away. Hunslet have five at home and four away.
Interestingly, Hunslet's games against Dewsbury, Dons and Oldham are all at home.
If we win every match, we'll definitely finish top. If we lose at home to Dewsbury, we'll probably finish second at best. If we lose at Oldham, we could well be third. If we lose at Hunslet, we might drop to fourth.
I'll be pleasantly surprised if we finish top. I'll be disappointed if we finish fourth. I hope we're good enough to finish second but it could be a close run race.
