Well thats that then

There has been a bit of a lull in the posting of items on here lately, this has been due to a bit of a quiet period in games, however there have been 2 games this week, on tuesday night the lads went away to Featherstone where they played a friendly against a good Featherstone lions side and were beaten 28-16, they gave a very good account of themselves and this was a good work out for the important game which was to come today (21 4 07)
We played against Myton warriors in the group cup and a lot hinged on this game, if we won we went through to the final against East Hull, however things didnt quite go to plan and we were beaten 40 points to nil, there was a nasty injury to Ash (R) in the first half and he received treatment for a good 5 minutes or so before having to go off. The good news was it was a bang to the head so it shouldnt do any damage (where there is no sense there is no feeling)............only joking ash, i hope you feel better soon.
This defeat signals the end of the season and to be honest i dont think the season could end soon enough for a very depleted and injury ravaged bunch of lads.
You have all done very well this year boys and lets hope when next season starts we might be a little bit better and a little more equipped in the way of a few more signings to give a little bit of back up for when the injuries come.

A big thank you should be said to Carol who today informed the boys that she will be leaving us as coach (the worst kept secret in rugby league) after doing a sterling job for so long, she will be handing over the reigns to Lee from next season.
I think all the team and parents owe carol a big debt of thanks for the hard work she has done on behalf of the team and i personally didnt appreciate how much she does actually do until i got a little more involved, she might now have a little more time to spend with her family.
Lets all get behind Lee and give him our support, and im sure we will still see carol around the place so she wont be leaving us all together but she might be able to enjoy the games in a different way as "just" a parent of a player. (hands up all those who think she will be able to stand quiet on the touchline and just watch the game quietly) not many hands up there then!!!!
