Formby & Holker

6 points before the new year and I'm convinced we'll have daylight between ourselves and the rest.

Some of the big boys back for the game, I'm very confident!

Looking forward to Saturday, unfortunately can't make it to Cumbria Boxing Day.

One of only two games to play against our rivals for promotion.

The others have to play each other 4, 5 or even 6 times so someone will be dropping points.

Apart from Widnes Vikings home and away all our other games are against teams in the bottom Half.

It is clearly in our own hands.

I'm generally in agreement, the best run in by a long way. Be wary of the derbies against Darwen and Widnes who have taken points off Formby. Ashton away tricky too. Long way to go

Two very big games that could shape the season - 6 points and we will be favourites for championship.

Big ask though - 4 points would be brilliant.

I would imagine the seasons first postponement amongst these two

Ian Kilford signed in time for the game, remember him at Wigan, must be in his more elderly years now tho that was in early 90's
