i think east where lucky to score and where never really in the game we (WBB) have started well as have 1st both with 3 wins from 3 but think tomorrow will be tough our 2nds are missing a few through u18's service area and 1st have a few missing so will take some from 2nds.

Cant see simmies 2nds raising a side again tomorrow either as there 1st are really struggling at the min with injuries and bans

I'm just hoping Blackpool seconds show up. I'm just off to bed now so beware scorpions

Didnt realise you were on the committe or coaching staff at Simmies shim!!!



The 2nd team will get a side and will win today along with the first team

just with the 1st havin r milly, j durbin, c duggan all banned and following tge tragic news of chris percival didn't think dave or neil would be playing then with the likes of d magee and g conroy signing for the maries surely it must leave the 2nds short!! But if thats not the case then good luck pal!!

Duggan and Jamie aint banned yet mate, and Neil and Dave aint played all year.

Rochdale Cobras A 0 - 18 Ashton Bears A.

Following the phone call saying Rochdale couldnt raise a side a hastily arranged friendly took place against Spring View A. After a very close affair Ashton managed to post a 24-22 win in the dying minutes after clawing their way back from 22-10 down. Thanks go to Spring View to getting their side down to Ashton with an hours notice and credit to both sets of players for a hard fought game and for appreciating they had a stand-in referee and making his job a lot easier.

Any scores from today?

Widnes West Bank A 34 - 32 Chester ARLFC

Really good close game of Rugby League with Widnes snatching it from Chester in the final 5 minutes despite Chester getting a couple of penalties that they could have gone for a kick at goal but we wanted the win.......Really pleased with the effort of the Chester team.

Some good results again this weekend i see .. widnes and chester looked like a cracker but i went watching blackbrook A on saturday entertain Culcheth .. brook got on the board quite early .. with a nice break and then after that it was just down hill for culcheth .. blackbrook just kept pushing and pushing and there defence was unbreakable ... there really gonna be the team to beat this year .. got some really good young players .. who are the ones to watch. deffinatley gonna go watch them again.

Is it true that the games have been called off this saturday due to the Grand Final ?

As far as I am aware no games have been called off due to the GF this weekend so here are the fixtures for this week

Ashton Bears A v Irlam Hornets A
Blackpool Scorpions A v Leigh East A
Chester v Fitton Hill
Culcheth v Widnes West Bank A
Folly Lane A v Rochdale Cobras A
Halton Simms Cross A v Blackbrook A
Little Hulton v Accrington Panthers

I know that the Chester game is a 1pm kick off to allow lads to travel to the Grand Final, Think Simms Cross v Blackbrook could be the game of the round really close but I am going to go with Blackbrook edging it slightly.

I would just like to say im a local spectator that goes and watch teams who i know and like around the st helens region. iv been to watch Blackbrook A Twice this year .. there opener against fitton hill and there most recent Culcheth. But i would like to say ( i know its goin back weeks now). But Blackbrook A beat Fitton hill 72-7 but why did it get marked down as 27-7 and why hasnt it been changed yet. Blackbrook A's goal differance should be skyhigh but its nt what it should be. Could someone please change it please because goal difference could be a factor at the end of the season. Thank You.
