Good luck to all today, look forward to some good match reports later today! come on Newton Stormmmmmm

newton beat bolton by a score along the lines of 38 - 12

Chester 36 - 16 Bury (I think)

Gave a penalty 10 metres out on the very first tackle and conceded straight away - not a good start! Was fairly even for the next 40 or so though we let Chester in once or twice. After half time we fell apart a little and conceded a few on the bounce but then muscled up again for last quarter, scoring a beauty at the last minute.

Pleased with the performance today against a MUCH bigger Chester side. Travelled with no props and 3 lads on debut, with lads filling in all over the place and the smallest team we've probably ever fielded! Chester were unspectacular but effective and we couldn't organise ourselves at times, with some stupid errors. Very enjoyable game and a fair result, Chester are a good bunch and played in great spirit.

Bank Quay Bulls A 68 v Little Hulton 0

scoreline says it all really fair play to Little Hulton who never gave up tho

We had to admit defeat and concede our first game after only having 9 lads available to play against Folly Lane A.

We shall regroup at training this week and hope to start our season at Chester this weekend.

What happened to all the players in the Summer League

Not a bad result for Bolton really considering it was probably a brand new team

Large majority gone back to Winter clubs including Rugby Union.

One of our lads got married on Saturday which didnt help player selection (how selfish)

We "should" be ok this weekend.

Fixture change for Saturday 10th September

Bank Quay Bulls A v Thatto Heath Crusaders - 2.30pm Kick Off @ Bank Quay

This fixture has been arranged as Accrington (Bank Quay's opponent) and Leyland (Thatto Heath's oppenent) are playing in the RLC Play-Off Final this weekend.

Is this the only game thats going ahead today in this division?

No, we've got Chorley at home. We've all got bloody man flu though, dropping like flies. Gonna be a snotty game!
