Think we should be sending younger players who are on the brink of the first team such as J.Briscoe, Green, Cunningham, Kent etc no point sending first teamers cos they will probably get injured.

Not been on for a while so dont know if its in another thread but will Tanseys ban count this fixture?

No it doesn't. He misses the Leeds game.

Have they changed the rule as didnt Tickle? have a ban last season and this count towards it?

Yep they realised it was a nonsense to allow the nines to count and rightly so IMO.

They would have allowed it but because Wigan, Huddersfield and Hull all have players out, and they are all in crucial positions in the table, so they decided to not allow players to do so this season.

i heard reece lyne is running the fastest man race? would be good to see, anybody on here going nxt week should be an entertaining evening

We had a 15-man squad last year, it was:



I can see Burnett, J.Briscoe, Hall, Lyne all going again. Maybe Tuffour, Nicklas, Williams, Liam Kent and Washy joining them? Not sure how else.

nicklas is out injured for the remainder of the season

I reckon Tansey will be off, just to give him a little competition whilst he's banned.

Yes, my bad. I was just looking at the squad page on the OS and was reeling them off there.

jack briscoe should be running fastest man

nah reece lyne should be, alot faster

Lyne's also played a SL game, which I think should be part of the criteria in order to enter the SL's fastest man competition.

Squad: J Briscoe, Tuffour, Donkin, Swales, Williams, Smith, Pearce, Green, Crooks, Norris, Morris, Lazenby, Howlett.

Manchild Pearce in the squad then.

Anyone know how long they play each half?

7½ minutes each half, teams change ends at half time but there is no interval.

So if this doesnt count towards Tanseys ban...couldnt we have played him to keep him match sharp?

Would you realy risk him though knowing the injuries we already have? I wouldnt tbh.

Bradford's squad;

If they don't win with that squad(if all the other teams are like ours full of youngsters), it'll be embarrassing.

Well they need to win something this year

Sameas we thought last year I think.. Wonder where they are in the fair play league??
