My lad is in his 11th season at King Cross Park and this is the first time we have not fulfilled a fixture. If we could have mustered 10 or 11 lads I'm sure they would have given it a go.

Looking at fixtures your due to play fryston this weekend. They've been struggling for players too so it could and up 12 v 12 or sumet

. Maybe a good chance for your players to score some points and get their confidence up again.

Had a joint meeting with the U17s last night. Both teams are short on numbers and it was proposed that the two teams merge to form one strong squad at U18. Unfortunately the 17s decided to continue on their own and it was with great reluctance that the 10/11 U18s lads left decided they had no option but to fold.



Sad day for the club especially when in a few weeks time the 17s find themselves equally short of numbers and fold themselves.

Not Good. Very suprised about not merging. Id have thought the powers that be would have made sure this happened. Lets hope those players who are now without a club can find a new club too!

Shaw Cross v Dewsbury Moor off, pitch water logged.

Sounds like a good game at Oulton. 18.16 to Normanton.



Looks like a straight fight between these two for the league.

Lead for most of the match even after having a player sent off after 15 minutes. Not a bad performance in difficult conditions

Acorn 44 Shaw Cross 4.





You get what you deserve on a rugby field and Cross got exactly what they deserved from this game.

Toll Bar look to be going well.



Won the last six league matches and a good win against Oulton at the weekend.

I believe they have had game or two of those given to them 18-0 for whatever reason but as you say a good team. One of the smallest teams in the forwards but make up for it with big centres and a lanky fullback. Conditions certainly wern't the best on Sunday and they handled them better than us. Probably a horrible game to watch but they were understandably happy with the result!

Have Oulton got some new players or merged with there older 18's because they were extremley poor when we played them Clayton 68-0 Oulton, last season under 17's.

They've had one game given 18-0 v Fryston cos they couldnt raise a team and the rest they have won.. Good team 1 to 17..
