Thanks for that lads, I shall see you all in Wrexham on June 15th.  (Those that are travelling that far, that is) We are only playing HullKR that weekend away, and I never go there so Wrexham it is!

Looks like Workington at home is the good Friday fixture again.

I know it doesn't make any real difference, but I always say that the last game of the season should be a reversal of the opening game of the season, if you're at home on the first game you should be away on the last.

Also, we should change the kick-off times for Batley and Sheffield at home, make them travel up here for 2pm kick offs, can't see why Batley need to kick off at 2pm, makes it an earlier start for ourselves and town to get there in good time.

Yeh 3 away games in the first 4 isn't ideal but if we're looking at top 8 or higher we should be looking to go to Keighley and Dewsbury and blow them away

I think the reason for the early kick off at Sheffield is that Owlerton Stadium is a greyhound track and the floodlights only light up the track, also there are two tracks so fans will be a long way from the playing area. You can google the stadium at

i know, and can see no reason for it, so surely the teams travelling furthest to get there, ie haven town and i suppose barrow, should be allowed a 3pm kick off

as it is it means setting off very early on sunday morning, or going to the expense of an overnight stay

Batley can't plan there season around us marra.  Avoiding the 4pm Sunday football is probably the reason.  Would prefer us to do that or Saturday night fixtures.
