I don't play for anybody anymore, had a bad knee injury and packed in 10 years ago.

They are coached by ex-player Matt Crowther who played at the top level with several clubs before his career ending injury. As for the players i'm not 100% sure of their past achievments. I'm more of watcher than a fan and go watch a few other amateur clubs as well as Lock Lane.

The facilites are top notch by amateur standards, with parking, clubhouse
bar and food available. Admission is £2 which includes a programme.

Expect the pitch to be like a mud bath.

Will the game definetly be on?

We wont have played for 6 weeks come Saturday due to Christmas and the weather

I'd imagine so. The weather is not too bad at the minute but i've heard some snow is forcast this week so best to check up the day before if you setting off early.

You can contact the club on: 01977 731233

Snow and sleet forcasted, probably more rain as well. Anybodys guess really, but don't think LL's pitch will stand anymore water.

Any idea if he's doing anything else? Last i heard he was wanting do something with regards physio work or something. Nice bloke is Matt and i was gutted for him when he had to pack in.

Not sure to be honest, mate. I think he's either assistant to Lee Hughes at LL or the other way round.

Not sure what else he does but as you say he's a smashing bloke.

Normy do you know who iv got this week?
Or anyone?
On my fixture list its "backlog fixtures"...but weve missed so many due to cup runs it could be anyone.





Was there a fixture pencilled in for us in the paper today?

Cas Panthers u17s...if anyone else wants to be kind and read the league express or whatever paper it is.

According to communityrl.com you're at home to New Earswick.

Lock lane are away to West Hull and we play Elland away. Should be an easy win for you that Fents, New Earswick are'nt pulling any trees up.

We should have played new earswick away on sunday just gone, but there pitch was water-logged.

I might come down and watch that one if it goes ahead and I don't have a game.

Is Lock Lanes pitch going to be playable on Sat?

Its in the hands of the gods mate, weather permitting. If its not played this week it will be played the following.

Whats it like at the minute and whats the weather like?

Don't panic mate, I'am sure LockLane will do everything they can to get the game on.

Clear and bright atm.

OK mate.

Im not playing like, currently got a broken arm, hoping to get the pot off this afternoon though

Think i'll be going down to the Cas Panthers v Leigh Easts game Saturday. Are you up for it Bonz?

Your game off then?

My game is Sunday mate, under 18's...then its straight darn't lane for Singe's memorial game

If iv got nothing to do on saturday, thats where il be too.

Heard a little rumour some Cas Panther players are going to Gateshead.

It was in the League Express mate.
Kev Till and Richard Lupton (?) i believe were the one's mentioned, although i could be wrong.
I've seen Dave Woods down at the Panthers on a couple of occasions which i can only presume that he was scouting.

I had heard it before it went to press, though Sean Hesketh was mentioned as well.

Oh ignore me I read it wrong! Thought you meant Panthers 17s on Sunday!
