Kieran Gill,

I suspect it will be no different to any other year with a mixture of fringe,youth and the odd first teamer. I'm sure all players will be working hard once they go back in for pre season.

I love going to boxing day games but it's a pretty pointless runout really. Other than giving the club done extra money. Which I have no issue with.

I'd imagine Lock Lane will KO at 14:30.

I would like to think Lock Lane would try and bring the game forward to the Saturday there are a lot of supporters like myself who will have to choose which game to attend if they both play on the Sunday, I am not holding my breath as RFL at all levels have the uncanny knack of shooting themselves in the foot

Nothing to do with the RFL, it's up to the NCL if they move games around. Plus it's only a friendly, a few Lock Lane games were moved around for CC and SL games and disrupted the season, as they had to catch up games.

you are most likely right mate, I just thought how it will effect both gates in some way a cup game being played at Feath with one of our own local teams being in a final, if they had played on different days I would have gone to both

True. I do feel for the NCL as it must be hard to re schedule games around amateur teams. I know one team in Lock Lanes division all went to a wedding last year so had to postpone a game. Which then means both teams have to find another weekend in an already long season to replay it.
