Due to a coming together of my foot and a very sharp garden spade I was unable to make it, score please.

Think it finished 24 -20 to our boys. Bit close for comfort but were through to the final along with brighouse.

Brighouse were awful against Greetland. It was all on until 10 mins from FT when the home side benefitted from a disputable try, they also gained a conversion earlier that was clearly wide of the posts & their ol man linesman actually bragged about it after he put his flag up !!! All part of the game I do appreciate & good luck to them in the final 'cos they'll need it.
This was Greetland's most aggressive & controlled defensive display for quite a while and their discipline was far superior than two divisions higher opponents who only had two subs I understand. Their stand off created two or three quality try scoring passes & that basically was the difference.
A cracking match to watch in all honesty.

Stainland Stags, Colin. Dewsbury played down hill first half and were leading at half time and looked the bigger better side. Second half complete turnaround, stags ran away with it.
Very good standard and very hard.
Looks like the nomadic Danny Fearon has turned up as Stainland coach.

He's been there all of this season mate. I understand the conference players have now left the Stags & returned to their other clubs, i have no doubt it will have been a different visiting team than the one which played up Greetland the other week too for the same reasons !!! Well done Stags.

Lovely day for it today, don't envy our 1st team playing up Queensbury

Make sure you have your thermals on John.

In all the time I have worked for Queensbury I have never been warm when we have played at home! Ever!

He went to the wrong ground, apparently he had forgotten his spectacles.
This week end? Got to be Greetland v West Leeds, never seen West Leeds, so will be able to judge them impartially.
