The York player who ‘abused’ the system was in A+E last night with a suspected broken jaw and/or a broken nose.

Still waiting for clarification on timekeeping - it’s either done by an RFL official or a rep from BOTH clubs, so blowing the hooter early as alleged by some will have been a joint decision or an RFL decision.

Wasn’t at the game (wife’s birthday) but managed to catch bits of the commentary on the radio. It sounded like to very evenly matched teams. In the end it came down to our inability to kick enough goals. York closed the game out and we didn’t, even if we were only the width of a post away from it.

There now seems to be a bit of a gap opening up between ourselves and the top 5. We should aim to win all our remaining games and just see where that leaves us. The dropped point last week was a blow but really it was the games against York and Sheffield that have cost us. I just hope Chalmers wasn’t gambling the club on a top 5 finish like Green did.

6th would be a very decent showing given we were the 2nd best team in L1 last year. However when you look at how York have gone and how consistent they have been you wonder if we could’ve done better.

I think people just love looking for conspiracies and controversy even when there isn't any. It's also very poor form of John Kear to be making those sort of comments to the press when he can't prove his allegations. He just looks like a sore loser.
We outscored York 5 tries to 4 and still lost, something that should never happen in a game of RL. Couple that with the knock on in the last minute, the foot in touch when grounding the ball, and the intercept passes and the only people JK and the players should be disappointed with are themselves.

I still think it will come down to the wire between ourselves and York for fifth spot, but I can see us just missing out and finishing sixth. I'm fine with this as long as Chalmers didn't foolishly budget for us finishing in the top 5. That's my only anxiety and it will continue to be so until the funding distribution is evenly spread irrespective of the final league standings.

Irrelevant. For a Head Injury/concussion assessment, it all comes down to whether the player had symptoms which made the Dr/physio suspect concussion. Plenty of players have nose bleeds without needing a concussion assessment. Equally players need concussion assessment without any obvious head injury. One doesn't necessarily mean the other.

Has the allegation been made by anyone other than our resident gob$h!t3? Wouldn't be the first time he's made accusations other than for them to be completely false (Remember his Morgan Escare tweet) one day the boy will land himself in hot water.

I agree with Nothus about Kears comments. End of the day we lost it ourselves through awful missed conversions (again, whoever chose to swap Keyes for Lilley wants shooting) and schoolboy errors.

Focusing on those conspiracies makes him look like a bad loser. If they're true, go through the right channels to make a complaint. The two instances where he had every right to feel aggrieved (the complete ignoring of the rules by the ref to not sin-bin their man for a professional foul. And the blatent high shot "missed" by the TJ which resulted in Evans being KO'd he didn't bring up)

Frustrating but we only have ourselves to blame I'm afraid.

This constant swapping of kicking duties amongst the players is a bit reminiscent of a pub team.

Not trolling btw. Thank you to your fans for travelling over and adding to the ocassion, been another great battle, I think a draw would’ve been a fair result but this is rugby league.


Yesterday there was the RFL timekeeper and the York timekeeper present.

What you describe in the opening paragraph is how the timekeeper's work in League One. In the championship, it is the sole responsibility of the RFL appointed timekeeper - not the York timekeeper as was the case yesterday.
