Doubt we'll trouble you in terms of the scoreline as we are suspect defensively even against Championship opposition (and Doncaster last week), but we play some good rugby in attack on our day and can see a high-scoring game.
Think this is the first time we have played you in a competitive game since your promotion season in 1997 (though there was the Richard Whiting Testimonial friendly a few years ago). Really hope as many of your fans come as possible, even if it's an evening televised game - those who haven't visited for many years will notice a vast improvement at the ground, we honestly think it puts the likes of Castleford & Wakefield to shame (not that that's hard). As well as the new stands, the pitch has been lengthened significantly and it's not quite as much of a slope (though the slope is still there).
Don't be put off if it's announced that the crowd will be segregated, that will mean you get the two newest stands at the Railway (top) end of the ground, it helps create a cracking atmosphere too. I'd expect a crowd of 5,000+ depending on what day the game is played and in such an intimate stadium where the fans are so close to the action the ground is bouncing in those situations.
No1 Club or the Working Mans Club or are they the one and same?
