A VIEW FROM THE TOUCHLINE

I would like to wish you all a very warm welcome to The Limestone Construction Field, Monks Sports Club this afternoon for our game against Myton Warriors n the Impact Performance National Conference League Division Two.

We welcome the players, supporters and committee of Myton to Woolston and hope that they have had a safe journey and enjoy our hospitality today.

If my memory serves me right then this will be our first ever game against Myton, but as you will always find with Hull sides they will be extremely tough, hard working and keep going for the full eighty minutes so we will need to be at our best if we are to claim the win.

We have started the season really impressively with three straight wins; last week’s victory at Dewsbury Celtic was fantastic with us coming home with both league points for the first time since 1st April 2017, exactly six years ago today! Billy Sheen and Mal Holt have certainly got the lads firing and long may that continue.

Our NWML side suffered a defeat at home to Rochdale Mayfield ‘A’ last week in a game that from all accounts we had plenty of chances in but I’m sure Liam Lawton and Dom Ball will have the lads raring to go again in a couple of weeks when they entertain Roose Pioneers. Their scheduled game at Hindpool Tigers today has been postponed and will be re-arranged for later in the season. Also in the programme you can find the fixtures for our Junior teams who play tomorrow. We have plenty of excellent players (and coaches) within our Junior ranks so if you have a spare hour or two in the morning please try and get along and show them your support.

Thanks for your attendance today and we hope to see you again very soon. Why not bring a friend along with you next time and introduce them to the Rovers!!!

Enjoy the game
