Cheers, fellahs. Bongser's tears only came the next day. 52 years ago, Ol' Pa B went down to the old Empire Stadium with Uncle B leaving all three of their young sons in Leigh. Following day, Bongser was on his dad's shoulders for the homecoming parade. Ol' Pa B is no longer with us.

This time the open top bus came through Atherton (Bent in local dialect) and Bongser stood there. As said bus rounded the corner onto Market Street, a bloke hoisted his young son onto his shoulders and the dam broke.

No shame as far as this party is concerned.

We'll go into the top 4 with a victory now. Surely even we can't love this up?

Seriously though I'm not just wanting a win, I'm wanting to see our points difference improved as it could be crucial. Time to be ruthless as we come into the business end.

i will be listening tonight via Micks commentary ... if we dont win, computer and wall will meet

agreed ... still so many outcomes to come these next few weeks

No Patton again.

Typical Jekyll and Hyde performance from the Bulls. Judging by the Batley game, we should have absolutely waked this. Newcastle looked shattered after 30 minutes.
But let's make life difficult - drop balls, forward passes, stupid penalties, overplays. Talk about underestimating the opposition.

Scratchy performance. Got the win and now up to third. But improvement needed.

I heard today Patton is not coming to games when not selected
Brad England wasn't picked today but was running water.

Patton was stood in front of me today.

Fair enough
Guess person who told me was incorrect

Post match, Greenwood described it as a scruffy win, but 2 points takes us to 3rd and we can now focus on Swinton, who are supposedly targeting us as a home win for them.
Brad England is fit & available. I think next week he’ll be back in the 17, Arundel back to Centre in place of Myers.
Baldwinson and Segeyaro both on crutches.

Slightly concerning performance today. Another example of the squad just turning up and going through the motions and expecting to win. The only reason we managed to limp over the finish line is because Newcastle were so poor are now effectively relegated.

Massive improvements needed next week against Swinton. We've now got a decent league position as we come to the business end of the season. Lets know blow it next week.

I don't think it was an attitude of we turned up half d. It was just a flat game, flat atmosphere. Felt like your typical end of season game knowing we would win. We were just clunky.

Doro looks a good pick up.

Definite improvement needed as Swinton will definitely be out to whack us. No end of season feeling next week.
