Just been on the Quins and Celtic game that it's the Sky game, Thursday 17th.

is that going to be normal sky sports or the red button due to a daft tennis match that murray will lose

So Batley away and home in the space of 96 hours!! Going to be a tough one!!

We played Wath Brow at the LSV this season in the Challenge Cup.

Looks like a Leigh/Batley v Keighley final.

I'd have been happy with a home tie against anybody, can't ask for any more than that. The fact that we're the Sky game makes it all the better from a personal point of view as I wouldn't have been able to make a Sunday game.

Would have taken anybody at home. Was made up when we came out the bag first! Batley are a good side but if we play to our potential we should have enough to make it through to Blackpool! Can't wait for the semi now

It will be just as tough for Batley though.

I think a lot will rest on the league game, to be honest. Batley will come to Leyth with a huge amount of confidence if they turn us over next week.

It depends on which coach values the most, the NRC or the league table. It depends on which coach is prepared to go for both or go for the main objective. Will one coach play reserves in the first game or the NRC semi final. It's gonna mind games and tactics to say the least. Will one coach go for the game that matters or will one coach be bold enough to go for both? Which scenario? No advantage in having to play twice in the same number of days. Just a question of how you achieve the best from two games.

A one point victory in each one will suit me fine! Don't think either club can afford to rest any players in either game, to be honest.

maybe a change of tactics in each game so the opposition don't find a way of combating our defense & attactting abilities.

BU&&ER was going away that week
