The older players let us down the young uns were willing to go. Amazingly its now only Tues and we have 32 available for 2 games this weekend'"
That's familiar mate, I've heard plenty of cry-off's myself. I noticed your 2nds were postponed too so that's a poor turnout for two teams. It's that time of the year I suppose but in Greetlands' case, they have a local cup semi final scheduled for a week on saturday so I suppose lads want to put their names into the selection process for that game. I can't understand the 3-piece-suite excuse cos DFS have an all year round sale on & the lad who took his girlfriend out, I can understand it if she's a bit of a little cracker to be honest

Pathetic turn out but to be fair it was mainly 2nd team lads available, problem now is young people dont see playing rugby as a priority on a Sat unlike my generation if they get a better offer they take it, likewise with injuries they wont play through them like we used to do, they just dont make themselves available, then we have a lot that just dont even let you know if there available or not

| Same story at a lot of clubs sadly.
You made a wise decision not to go to West Leeds, we once went there with 11 players for our A team, and we really did scrape that side together. They were unbeaten at top and they were first class pillocks with us. Had 2 lads suffer serious injuries which ended their playing days. Horrible club.
Might be seeing you in a few week over at Selby we're hoping it will be our last away game of season and we're planning on getting a bus over

I try and see a local game most weekends but, I haven't travelled very far, my main ventures are KCP, Halifax Irish, and if they are not available, once to Queensbury, once to Greetland
So I don't know what the controversary is about West Leeds.
I don't doubt our honourable members, so please let me in on it.

I think the 3 piece suite excuse must be doing the rounds, I think I told you late last season Colin that one of the KCP 1st teamers didn't turn up for that very same reason.
I know to look at me now no one would believe me but, when I played you started looking forward to the next game on a Sunday morning, check the bruise's from yesterday, declare yourself fit for a week at work and think nothing much during that week other than Saturday afternoon. No holidays during the season, I still have a very good friend who's wife dislikes me simply because I declined to be his best man, I had an important game that afternoon. I did go to the wedding, followed by pre meal drinks, but left before the meal. The Lady I was with, who could have become Mr's Halifaxjohn if she had been more understanding, hasn't spoken to me since that day.
They were good times.

That is the reason the coach binned it, i thought they should of gone but he said " them youngens will get a right pasting and we may never see them again" They used to be old Stanningley Crown team they are propa bellends, and the coach was right they would of knocked the smoke out of them 16 year olds. I may play in the game when we play you if i can borrow some pads and about 20 inhalers

couldn't have put it any better. Hopefully the league will give us plenty of notice so we can sort a bus and have a good session at your place

King Cross Park for me, 2.30 kick offs tomorrow sports fans, might have fish and chips from the shop on Saville Park first (don't tell Mrs Halifaxjohn)
Interesting to see whether Wortley Dragons manage to get a team for their cup game against West Leeds.

| Day off today for me after working too many hours at work this week, shame to waste a good day out in this weather but am chilling out and re-charging. Son No.1 is playing against Brotherton away today, wherever that is, sounds like another lot from the old Yorks leagues so i guess they'll be crackpots.

| Watched a bit of KCP then strode down to watch Irish. Blimey what a game, very close with Hunslet just running out winners.
KCP won by a reasonable margin.
As I say every week Rugby League at any age or level is a very tough game.
1 criticism if I may, the clothing of the ref's bright orange shirts shorts and socks horrendous, watching the Bullsh'ters v Cas at the moment and the officials have sky blue shorts and pink shirts with sky blue squares on them. Whereas the football refs on the moor had simple black shorts and shirts. Looked far more professional.
