ye i am a higgy lad i was on about unbeaten in the league!! as cup comps are a bounes if you do well league is everyones bread and butter and show how good you are week in week out.

All we know is we have to win our next at higginshaw and that will put us 2 points closer to what we all want to achieve....we are grateful for the free week this week!

We have had a tough run of fixtures, and I'm sure a few have been stood in grow bags since we played them first time around!!....so its great week for sdome lads to get the knocks right and for us to go to higgy with no excuses...hopefully Leyland can do us a favour at weekend, but we are goin in as if Irlam have the points in the bag, that we can only concentrate on what we have to do.

....But there are no easy games in division 3 this, and in my opinion it will be the most competative league in NWC next year if the current positions reflect promotions and relegations, out of all the league our points for is the lowest out of all all 6 leagues for a top placed side....which may indicate we are rubbish in attack (but I'm sure there a few including myself will disagree), or that its been one hell of a tough league.

Leylands, Hindpool and Ulverston's run in for the end of the season and that 3rd spot

Hindpool v Heysham Atoms
Higginshaw v Ulverston
Leyland Warriors v Irlam Hornets

Ulverston v Leyland Warriors

Leyland Warriors v Hindpool

Spring View v Hindpool
Ulverston v Irlam Hornets
Leyland Warriors v Langworthy Reds

Spring View v Ulverston

How do people think it will end up

Looking at those fixtures I would say Leyland should get 3rd and Ulverston probably finish 4th. Been a great league this season with pretty much everyone capable of beating anyone else, although Spring View seem to have run away with it they have had plenty of close games.
On a personal note it's been a great season for us at Hindpool. We have our best points total since entering NWC and have fielded 17 players every game in both the 1st and A teams when last year we had to fold our A team and travelled with 12/13/14 players

Them fixtures couldn't have fallen any better for a good run in!

Go on which game

It's not going to matter as it's gone off to the trash can.

fair do's

Some big games this weekend we at higgy need the 2 points against ulv and hope lang slip up its getting squicky bum time at the bottom off the table.

Langworthy and Higginshaw will both be in division 3 next season as Golbourne dropped out remember so only 1 will go down.

it will be chaos working out the divisions for next year with possible teams coming in from NCL, some teams going to summer, plenty of drop outs this year already, etc. - i wouldnt pay any attention to where people are now ending up.

very true
