Unnecessary loss and, in the end, a heavy one. We are clearly not a wet weather side. Plenty of effort, knocked on the door a lot but not enough cutting edge and too many errors. We gifted them tries. Again slow start to second half. I thought their 7 had a good game with the boot and they have a few big units but I’m far from convinced they should beat us at home. Oli L 18th man today. Generally I think having a decent squad now allows rotation and Thats a good thing. I thought Norman who took over kicking duties was more of a threat with kicks in game but we didn’t make the pressure count. Really disappointing.
Should add I think it was a decent crowd but I’m now over this idea that it’s Ok for away fans to be mixed in with us. They should be allocated an area where they can chant come on York Knights to their hearts content without annoying me.

Yes too many handling errors. York coped better with the conditions.

I agree entirely !

On the topic of crowd numbers I assume we are getting more attendees than Ealing in 2017 & 2018? I'm not seeing too many Ealing regulars that I recognised at PL so is it a largely different audience?

The Ronan Michael/Ukuma Ta'ai interchange caused us problems in every game we've played against them this season and did so again today. Shifted the momentum I thought and set a good platform for their halves.

Henry going off injured certainly threw a spanner in the works and we seem to have settled into becoming very dependent on Corey to pull off a miracle kick every end of set.

Despite a good start ( early try, forcing York to drop out a number of times) we never really looked like we were going to make the most of our chances today.
Rushing the play in those weather conditions was bound to lead to handing errors.
When we got near their line we just didn’t look to have the means to break through, and yes we gifted York their tries.
Being nilled in the second half- as miserable as the weather!

yea we have been to 3 games total at PL since the move, and unfortunatly have found other things to do now on sundays. Its possible we might start going more regulary but right now don't really see it. I think I'd need to see a complete shift in ownership for me to start to think about attending more than the odd game.

Would have gone to the SF if it had been on a Sun, but could not make the Sat
