Aye, we (Woolston) had 2 players gouged at Adlington away but what can you do?



Unfortunately, we are governed by the local Parish council who will not let us use the main pitch on bennetts rec hence us using the one over the road. We have absolutely zero say in that.



We would much rather use a bigger and wider pitch.

Interestingly Adlington had one of thier player having to leave the field coughing up blood after the second elbow in the throat not picked up by the referee, your no angels boys, I was there

Unfortunately foul play breeds that foul play. I'm not at all condoning elbows and foul play, however it's very difficult to keep your cool when the other team is playing so dirty. Speaking from a personal point of view, I've never been sent off in an almost 20yr playing history but I did find myself rising to the foul play on that occasion, the odd punch in a tackle or whatever doesn't bother me but when there's fingers purposely going in eyes it crosses a line. At the end of the day were all in the same boat, we all have to get up for work on a Monday morning, that kind of thing could very easily ruin a blokes life. But I suppose you've got to accept there will always be stupid people who don't have a brain to think about it like that.

Like I say, what can you do? Stick up for yourself and your teammates?

20yr playing history?? I honestly didnt realise you started playing when you were 17 mate?? Fair play

playing against adlington will be tough but discipline will win any team a match like that one.

as for the widnes sides finishing top 3 it would be nice but dont rule out the likes of woolston dalton and askam they will all be very good at home and woolston will win the away games to will be up there in contention.

oh and woolston from what i played against last week had no wizards player but did have lymm players but i new they were woolston players anyway.

Once they pull on the green and gold (or white and green with a bit of yellow) they are Woolston players. I don't care what they did last summer, last year or any other time!

Well said Milly.......Thats an excellent point!!



Who gives a rats ass what they did in the off season, once they sign for a club they play for that club

Tough game today with Dalton, good set of lads and glad we managed to get the win! Left it a little bit too late tho!

The one downside to the game was the referee who failed to control the game and gave some ludicrous decisions for both teams. Unfortunately a blatant raised elbow in a tackle which resulted on one of our lads having 25 stitches went unpunished! Absolute joke!! I'm not having a go at Dalton there though because that was the only bit of foul play I saw!

Yeah good bunch they were. At 34-18 up after 50mins though we should have closed the game out and won comfortably but credit to Dalton for coming back.



The elbow was as clear as day, the ref said it was self defence when I went on the pitch to attend our player?????????? Work that out?!?! 25 stitches in his lip. How is an elbow self defence???



A great game of rugby league though by 2 teams wanting to play open rugby league ruined by a tool with a whistle.

So...this week...
