Very excited about Saturday in Chester......Not sure how many we will get turning out but things are looking good for our first season in Winter Rugby.
A lot of our team still away (Chester University lads) but still should have a strong side out.
Still got a lot to sort out to make sure the game, and afterwards goes well, at the moment I will be cooking on the side but I am hopeful it will be a good day and the result will be the right one!
We (Rochdale Cobras) were looking forward to the season, that was untill we found out both teams dont have a game on the 4th (WTF).
1sts did have Blackpool at home and 2nds have/had Culcheth away. Culcheth may not have a team for saturday (not thier fault, when i spoke to them it was the 1st they knew they had got in the league) they are trying there best to sort the game for us.
got a good 50 lads signed on, firsts are looking better than last year (even with Big T gone, as the boys aint depending on him maybe). 2nds are a bit of a mix, on a good day we could put out a right team.....but the next saturday would be a right mess
all in all tho looking forward to it!!!!!
Do i know you RochdalePaul????? Im Ben Boothman ex Milnrow/mayfield?, im playing for our 2nds so will see you this season but not till march???? odd fixtures????
Also Mike, if Bury want a game saturday we will travel to you, we could do with another run out (2nds)?!!?!?
Ben I saw you at the August meeting, I am Paul Foster who played for Milnrow from '89 (under 13's) to early 90's (open age) however moved to Chester 10 years back but I am now back playing and running Chester.
I know Ryan Blake from kids and he will know my dad!!
I am looking forward to the Cobra games gutted I have to wait until March next year!
rung you yesterday and today at the pub ben....seems your a part-timer and your details are definately wrong in the NWC book (meant to mention that before when we spoke!)
I think your going to have to wait mate, pathetic numbers at training again last night, going to take a miracle to get 13 lads out on saturday, nevermind 17!
Training again tomorrow night, fingers crossed
Any news from you chaps after training tonight? Reckon you can raise 13?
We've got a nice new pitch with brand new posts waiting!!
Shock horror, 23, yes twenty fooking three, was at training last night!!!!! No show all fooking summer, then all rock up 2 days before a match.
Looking forward to it, new found optimism in the Newton Camp, though a lot of positions have changed
We will be competitive for 10 minutes, then die a death as hardly any have trained for months lol. Hey Ho.
Roll on 2:30pm tomorrow
good good...
ps. please feel free to compliment us on our posts. me and cronus dug the holes and put them in in the dark on wednesday night...that's why we're so keen to play!
Im playing centre tomorrow so doubt il get close enough to see how good they look haha! Unless its stood under them after you guys score...but lets hope not.
