Will the boxing day fixture always be away from Odsal? Might go but not sure yet...will depend on the weather and state of the body icon_wink.gif

Quote: mat "Will be interesting to see how potter approaches the pre-season games. Last few years we've treated the earlier ones as mainly a chance to give kids a runout and gradually added seniors as pre-season continued, only really seeing anything like a full 1st team for the last friendly. I'm hoping we put out stronger teams this year for all the friendlies, given that we started pre-season training earlier then the senior players should be upto speed fitness wise and think we need the match practice to get combinations going. I Know theres an argument about oversuing some off senior players but we should have the squad depth now to allow squad rotation during the season and not just when injuries strike. Suppose the other argument is that we dont want senior players picking up injuries in the pre-season but think thats a risk we just have to take.'"

It's not just a matter of not picking up injuries to be fair. Whilst the youngsters will have been in earlier many of the first team squad didn't start training until later so won't be ready for the early matches. At least we'd no-one involved in the 4 nations though we had (?) four in the train on squad and some the overseas players who weren't back for the start of training.

Quote: Mick Gledhill "Mick,

Are you sure that buses will be running on Boxing Day ? I thought there
weren't any on either the 26th or 27th.

Last year the club put on a coach.'"


Yes the buses are running boxing day.

It will mean a change in Leeds but for £4 return you can't go wrong.

As soon as First email me back with the times I'll post in here.'"


First buses don't run between Leeds and Castleford AFAIK.

When i used to go from Leeds to Cas it was with Arriva buses.

I have Arriva times, just waiting for First to publicise their Xmas and New Year times so I can plan a good connection time in Leeds.

It'll be X6 Bradford - Leeds (First) then 189 Leeds - Castleford.

It'll take around 1hour 40mins which maybe a bit long for some.

X6 doesn't run on Sundays/ Bank Holidays.

72 is best bet.

I would warn you though. Pretty sure that not all buses run as expected simply because not enough bus drivers will work it.

fair point. think we would have been better served in terms of build up if we'd have swapped dewsbury and fax fixtures though. its likely to be pretty much full 1st team for dewsbury and wakey games and no disrespect to dewsbury but thats going to be a mismatch even allowing for us not having much gametime together (Or at least I hope it is icon_biggrin.gif ). think we'd have got more out of a tough game against fax with full 1st team.

It's running boxing day as it did last year.

Huddersfield-Bradford-Leeds it'll do and they'll be only one an hour, the same with the 189 Leeds-Castleford-Wakefield bus.

But at least we've got a bus to get to the game.

Yes it was, but we didn't have a very strong side out that day which was Mat's point.

The 363 is running in place of the X6 and will continue to Leeds via the 72 route.
The 508 is also running to Leeds.

The only connection to Cas would be on the 166.

I got there with 5 mins to go and it was full, so I went home

I understand that the club is considering running a coach on Boxing Day but only if there is sufficient interest.

Anyone wishing to go can add their name to a list being kept at the ticket office.
