Congratulations to all at West Bank, the league title fully deserved.
We just didn't show up today and were well beaten by the better team.
Two must win games for us in the next couple of weeks to secure promotion.

Congrats to West Bank on winning the league today. Have a great night.

No arguments from me, well deserved.

Cheers to all at woolston great game, you would be the first to admit you didn't show up good luck on securing 2nd. You were very gracious after the game and it was very much appreciated well done.

Champions champions champions

Is anyone really going be sure they'll get promotion? By the time they have decided whether to play summer or winter, teams pull out or join in, it will a massive feat to sort it out for this coming season.

And how are they going to be sure that everyone who starts in September will still be playing in the competition come March? You could end up in Div P/1/2/3/4 depending on what teams decide to do.

Will the 10 that voted 'no' for the NCL change their minds? Join the BARLA Conference? Drop into NWCs (assuming there is still a NWC winter comp)? There will be massive changes next season. Knowing our luck we'll be told we have to start at the bottom - again!

I agree Milly I dont think any of the leagues will pan out based on this years promotion/relegation, How can it?

If the RFL want sumer rugby in place for next summer, then theres going to be an influx of teams into NWC that oppose summer rugby, aswell as the ones that want to go the other way....I don't think it will have a massive effect on the ability for NWC to run a league as per normal next year, but there are gonna be massive changes in personnel i would suspect.

All in all I dont think this transition is going to be quite as fluid as what the RFL think especially at a Local Level, and may take 3/4 years before there are settled leagues in both winter and summer....But as long as theres 26 men on a field and a referee in the middle come 2.30 pm on a saturday afternoon then I'll be a happy man!

=#FF0000Congratulations to West Bank, Well deserved and done in emphatic style by the sounds of it, See you at OT

Orrell have conceded to farnworth

Latchford also conceded to st maries

It does make me wonder if the amateur game isn't a winter sport for a reason?

The start of the summer music festivals are underway - Glastonferry today. Wonder how many games will get conceded when V, Reading & Leeds etc get in the way? I know our lot are into their music festivals.

Stag dos - not necessarily a pub crawl round town anymore. A full weekend (at least) away, possibly abroad?

I think it will only get worse. and if the RFL kick you out for conceding where do you go then, once the winter season has been dismantled (which is what I feel they are aiming for).

Signed,

Negative Nelly!

Tuesday night
Orrel st James vs west bank. Wb will be looking to bounce back after a unfortunate defeat to clock face.
Woolston vs adlington. Adlington won on on Saturday but can't see them traveling if they do woolston will win by 40+.
I have a feeling both games won't go ahead.

Orrell vs west bank OFF orrell couldn't raise a team.

HFH vs west bank on Saturday is OFF HFH couldn't raise a team.
