Well we are back, and in what makes a pleasant change for a season opener, we welcome Leeds to 'fortress' Halliwell Jones in our first SL Game of the 23 season.

I'm sure there'll be an air of expectation on both sides of the Pennines, who'll come out on top Powell or Smith, who's recruits will lift their team from last season's mediocrity and will Don the southern Rhino make the Last train to Clarkesville (Chester)?

You decide and good luck. I will be giving the points scoring distribution a tweak so have a look at the Sticky before KO

Cheers UR, Forever and Ever by Slik was No1 on this day in 1976, which reminded me of our poor performances that seemed to go on that way in 2022. I'm hoping for a change of tune this season.
