I know what you mean but tbh we had 9 players. We sometimes suffer due to 1st team requirements as we did on sat. why would we "poop it" when we have beaten you in 2 of the 3 fixtures we have had with you over the last few years??

Leyland's pitches were spiked last week and were in great nick at the weekend. Bit soft on the top inch but firm underneath. Just the small pond on the 40 metre line remained!

Council make a decision on Friday mornings.

How is the pitch up at Higginshaw looking?????

Hindpool Vs Burtonwood OFF

No one want games called off but big pat on backs to Hindpool for giving us plenty of notice that the game couldn't go ahead.

Shame but that's winter rugby for you, roll on Summer Rugby!

Seems I been a bit premature calling it off. it has hardly rained since I made the call and pitch is playable now. Should have had more faith in the new drains we had put in. Pretty disappointed now cos we had a full squad out for the first time this season.

oh dear. if u was at spring view you would be getting tit of the week for that.

from what i have seen leyland and spring view is also off

Just found this thread and have to say that the ref for the Ulv v SV game was the worst referee I have ever seen at ANY level.

It is a good job the 2 sides have a mutual respect for each other and that the game was played in the best of spirits. Somebody would have seriously been hurt......and someone will definatley be seriously hurt if he officiates another game. Spoilt the game and allowed playersmouthing in his ear to influence his decisions...Poor !

Higginshaw 16-26 langworthy reds, another good win for us on a difficult pitch and against a big pack, the hill before and after the game wasn't good though!! Hard place to go is higginshaw!! Good effort by all our lads, bring on buttonwood bridge next week!!!

Correct. South Ribble Council called off the pitches early yesterday. They were fine this morning.

to be honest mate think if the call had to be made on Friday then alot more teams in all Divisions would have been off with the rain it put down!!!!!had a look at ours Sat afternoon and we could off probably let our 2nds play on it...

Id just like to thank the Pilks fellas who I was in communicado with at around 11am giving me directions so I could take the game in.....one man and his dog when I got there, Games off son!...nice one!
