Thread | Boston - Saturday
by Dale_4_Life at 18:03 19 Dec 2024
Boston much improved or a real chance for Dale to register consecutive wins?
Cant help but think if we have any hope of kicking on and remaining top 7 this is one we really need to get 3 points.
If we can find a way to WIN more consistently the remainder of the season will be exciting, hopefully one to remember.
Dominate and clearly the better side - Win - 3 points
50/50 great game - could go either way - Win - 3 points
Up against it and clearly not at our best? - Win - 3 points....
Hopefully that winning mentality and winning feeling continues on Saturday and we get into the winning habit in the final half of the season. Lets really kick on starting this Saturday.

How we get our games called off - see below email from Hornets:
The club can confirm that the upcoming 1895 Cup first preliminary round tie between Rochdale Hornets and Cornwall will be played at Rochdale Mayfield.
The fixture will take place on Saturday 1 February (3pm kick-off).
This decision has been made after consultation with Rochdale AFC, who welcome National League rivals Oldham to the Crown Oil Arena on the following Tuesday night.
To ensure the pitch can remain in the best possible condition for both that fixture and the upcoming Betfred League 1 campaign, the tie has been switched to Rochdale Mayfield.
Club officials from Rochdale Hornets and Rochdale Mayfield recently held positive talks concerning the future development of rugby league in the borough.
Discussions took place to help consolidate our improved relationship, and a commitment was made from both clubs to work collaboratively whenever possible - this venue change being a prime example of that.
We thank both Cornwall and Rochdale Mayfield for their cooperation.
The 1895 Cup fixture will form part of a wider day of events at Rochdale Mayfield, with further details to be announced in due course.
The winners of the game will go on to face Swinton Lions in the next round.
So, it's bound to be off if Mitchell isn't fit. |

Thread | Penalties
by Delboy at 19:53 15 Dec 2024
TVOS will correct me if I am wrong but I don't think we have been awarded a penalty in league and cup games this season. Apart from the possibility of unfortunate refereeing decisions that must surely be a direct consequence of our failure to attack and penetrate the opposition penalty area with sufficient aggresion to create an error. Something for Jim to take note of I think. |

Thread | Tamworth Tuesday
by Delboy at 13:23 15 Dec 2024
Unless Jim and the players are able to find a way we are in for another potential bore fest. Tamworth have no obligation to entertain and following a few early season thrashings tend to set up to frustrate, a method that has brought them some success recently and which inevitably works against our slow possesion based style. To avoid the usual depressing sonario against this type of team surely Jim sees the need to start the game hard and fast and keep going forward even if we are fortunate to score early. For once I would like to see the oppostion defenders have a torrid time instead of sitting back comfortably while we pass nonchalontly around the edge of the area. I would love to be pleasantly surprised but I suppose in all honesty I am steeled for more frustration. |

Even though it’s finished.
Big pressure on McNulty and his team to get two positive results before Christmas. The amount of teams bunched together who look to be going for two playoff spots is growing. Top five keep pulling away.
Not seen anything today, but those subs all seem way too late. When we’ve a squad with so many options you have to be utilising them earlier in tight games. |

Match abandoned after a Farsley player collapsed on the pitch due to a medical episode and is treated for some considerable time. Now taken by ambulance to hospital. Best wishes to him and all those affected as a result. |
