I could tell that from the other end of the pitch. Quite what the touchjudge was looking at remains to be known though.

That's because he dropped it as everyone but the three spare parts could see.

In touch
Not getting much luck at minute are we?

So you don't think he dropped it as well?
Watch him, either way he is looking at the ref and linesman, he's not celebrating, he knows it's dodgy.

In touch and not grounded

Didn't notice the above when filming it but having looked back on the video it does appear that way. However splitting the frames I do see the ball grounded not dropped and he is still in whilst doing it. I don't know how to put a still on here but will email it to anybody who wishes to see.

It's history anyway ... we lost because we deserved to.

This division is tight and before the seasons end there will be many sides that "deserve" to win but don't.

You have to punish sides that are playing poorly and stay switched on for the full 80 or this happens.

We (Keighley) have in the past been in your position and lost such games, and I know which I prefer.

Finding a way to squeeze a win from an initial poor performance becomes a habit as does loosing it.

I can't see us playing so badly against you at our place and JD will certainly get our forwards fired up, so it will make for a very interesting rematch.

We will certainly have to play a lot better if we expect to maintain our current position. Swinton and Whitehaven look very handy sides.

It's funny how when a side plays better than yours it's because you played badly. Can't you even give some credit to a side that was playing better than yours until the game turned round.
Keighley never bust us up the middle hardly, they had more speed down the right and showed up our lack of pace. That aside you would have lost.
As for the return, you can put your house on Keighley to win.
If we can't beat you at home after outplaying you for 60% of the game, we have no chance away.

I suppose I could point to this...



.....and say you didn't give us any credit before the game

My post was intended to be sympathetic not demeaning. There is no doubt that you were the better side for large portions of the game but that isn't always enough is it?

(and we did play poorly )

Where was Grant Edwards and Craig Fawcett on Sunday, were they injured??

I think when Keighley fans say that they were poor on the day then i'd be inclined to agree and wonder about how bad that makes us.

Again im sorry to be the negatice poster yet again (i feel thats all i do lately)...but isnt that 7 losses in a row...are we aiming for last years record of 20 odd or whatever it was?

Don't know about Grant but I was advised that Craig had been 'left out' in favour of Aaron Dobek.

We appear to be using the lottery technique for team selection, or possibly the picking the balls out of the bag FA Cup style format.

I think you are being unfair now.
Miller is in a much better position than we are regarding team selection and injuries, and he only wants the best for Donny.
It's the players on the park who have not delivered.
If Miller had a better say and budget he surely would have us a table-topping side.
The pig's ear on Sunday was down to the players and a lack of strong guidance on the pitch.
We are not good enough and that's not Millers fault.
I think we play some attractive rugby, we are just not fast enough or have enough forward power.

The table never lies.
We are ordinary.
It's easy to take it out on the coach, but you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.
