Back in the day they sometimes played 3 games in 3 days at Christmas time.

They should bring that back and see if Jamie Peacock's head explodes.

Better to have glory days long gone then to not have had them at all.

Before this just disintegrates even further into a B&W v R&W slanging match it would be good to recognise that there are plenty of English players & club people that are also far from happy at playing the Easter weekend fixture schedule & I imagine that if it wasnt for the fact that the clubs make money from the derbies & the demands of the TV sponsorship, the tradition would have gone a long time ago.

That was the most pointless use of the quote facility I have ever seen

Most Aussies are soft and Whine, that's why they do so badly at most Sports, they can not hack it.

Peter Gentle was on Look North this morning, saying that we shouldn't have two games over Easter as the standard of the second game is poor.



Personally, I agree with Peter Gentle, the second game is not up to standard.
