Quote: Angelic Cynic "Quite by accident I came across information that Doncaster have rearranged their home game on 14th June away from The Keepmoat as work is being done on the pitch.
As that date is the reverse fixture v Whitehaven,does anyone know where the game is likely to be played,please?'"


Maybe the work will be finished by 4.15. icon_cool.gif

BBC Radio Cumbria would be your best bet. Regular updates I should imagine.

Betting Update
We cant afford to lose these type of games if we want to finish in the top 4 bookies have us as 14 point favourites I wont be having a bet as the pitch may not suit our style of play and we have a W3 L7 record at Whitehaven however on a positive note the team travelled yesterday so should be fresh for the game my prediction
Cumbria had heavy rain last night could be a gluepot of a pitch which will keep the score down Whitehaven 16 Sheffield 26

Some interesting matches the highlight being Fev v Bradford with the away team being 6 point favourites London look to have another tough road trip this time to Leigh who are 20 point favourites. dewsbury are 6 point favs at Hunslet.Interesting game at Batley Halifax are slight favourites and lastly another south yorkshire club travelling to Cumbria Donny at Workington Difficult match to assess the bookies agree and donny only slight favourites

Again wont risk my money at this stage of the season but if i had to have a bet i would have Dewsbury -6 Bet Vic 10/11 and Leigh - 18 Ladbrokes 10/11

Good win today, followed the game on twitter it sounded like both teams made loads of handling errors was this down to a muddy pitch ??? An area of concern is our kicking game our conversation rate was something like 0/5 by two or three different players Brambanni is our regular kicker why did he not take the kicks ?

I know its early in the season but I am optmistic about us finishing in the top 4 Fev's big home defeat by Bradford today and previous close wins against Hunslet and Doncaster suggest they are beatable this season and London have had a poor start we have already had one convincing win against them and are playing them 3 times, we are probably better than the likes of Halifax Dewsbury Doncaster and Batley

Eagles Fly Past Hapless Haven - wp.me/p3JxPK-vt

I was doing the Twitter account Duggs so I hope the updates were alright! Good win overall and I was impressed with John Davies on his first outing. Two solid defences coming head to head next week when Batley visit the Keepmoat, should imagine we'll be a bit more expansive next week! icon_lol.gif

The Twitter updates are excellent thanks, good report however it still does not explain why brambani was not taking the conversions it sounded like his inplay kicks were good so confused why he was not taking kicks at goal ?

I'm none the wiser about the kickers either. Walker, Briggs and Brambani are all, usually, good conversion kickers in their own right.

I thought he was immense.Coming back from injury onto that pitch;then putting in 3 successive tackles set the tone and he continued.
I was a fan of his to start of with but he,and the others defended very well - desire,doggedness,determination? Well impressed.

My only little whinge would be....where they say 'see the game out','close the game down' - game management etc. we tried to keep the ball alive - after the hooter went at the end of the first half and then after their repeat sets,where on your tweets you have it that Misi knocked-on,he didn't;he took the catch and then for some inexplicable reason passed it to a teammate who wasn't expecting it and he knocked-on.
I don't think it wise to give a home side or their supporters any encouragement.

That stated a wonderful team performance - great day out,despite the A595 - what route did you take back,I saw you in a front passenger seat demonstrating map holding skills? then the vehicle disappeared - and the players MUST have another overnight stay before the Workington game.They were very good.

Must finish with praising our fitness levels - well done all!

We seem a lot more better in the forwards than we have been in recent times. A tough game like that today was a great test for our forwards on the boggy pitch and they did themselves proud. In the three-quarters, Smeaton didn't get much ball but did well in the tackle.

I'll have been catching up on a previous tweet probably, so that's why I got it wrong. Still a bit of an amateur when live-tweeting so bare with me 11.3359375:10
