After speaking with David Lowe yesterday there are a lot more names than those listed above who have now formally applied to join (ie not the original 'declaration of interest'). I believe in the Wigan area this includes Cuthberts and Spring View. he mentioned Rylands amongst others I can't recall. It looks a matter of time before the whole NWC comes over as looking at the switchers there aren't going to be many left to play.

save you all from counting - 71 names there.

Re: 2012 north west mens league : Wed Jan 11, 2012 2:11 pm  

We voted on Saturday...no question really with all the frustration of not playing for 12 weeks brings.

Lads seem excited, straight through no brew for us and allot of teams now....MORE RUGBY!!!

Re: 2012 north west mens league : Wed Jan 11, 2012 3:24 pm  

Good Number, that's 6 divisions (of 12) should be a good proper competition

going to be a merit league at the bottom and the structure provided to clubs only allows for 10 teams per division so i imagine they'd aim for 6 divisions and a merit at the bottom. only concern is there are more than 11 there who'd be merit teams i think...

sure it'd be all worked out!

Re: 2012 north west mens league : Thu Jan 12, 2012 9:13 am  

we have asked to go in the top division (got a few more lads this summer to add to lads from last) but prem/1 will be good, we may have our arses handed to us every week but only time will tell. think Hindley have gone in top too????
