I see we are playing the Dulls on the 27th January.

I also see that the Dulls are playing Hull FC the same weekend.

So are we playing the team full of kids again?

I really hope we are not.

Since we are playing at home I would imagine they will send whoever they have available - possibly a side full of kids. If it had been at Odsal I think they would have fielded a competitive side.

I hope they actually send a mix of youth and experience to make it more of a game of it.

At the end of the day both sides should try to get some benefit, a blow out score either way serves no sensible purpose.

To be fair it has a pleasant sound when you say it out loud.

last year it was "Super League is coming to Cougar Park!" - which turned out to be bullocks



IGMC

Was that the farce that was the saint's visit?
A drubbing serves no purpose, neither does advertising a 'super league' side comprising players no-one's ever heard of.
Let's hope there's a couple of big names to make it interesting, but enough second stringers to make it competitive...

With the team we're building, they cant bring too many second stringers, or it wont be competitive, because we will beat them!

I imagine our first team squad such as Kearney, Gale etc will be playing Hull. So we may send a good set of halves. Jeffries and maybe Briggs. As we have like 2 pairs of halves. Bateman, Murphy, Ball, O'Brien, possibly Platt or Sykes and maybe Addy.

In answer to post title, maybe none!. Just appeared on bulls website that there's no agreement to play you in a friendly, despite both you and t&a announcing fixture.

Oh well, we won't miss it.

Cheers for that MICKY.
No need to worry about it seeing as the game isnt even happening.

I find myself overwhelmed with indifference.

Is there such a state of mind as underwhelmed?

They are scared of being beaten again!

What's the difference between us playing or not?

£10k at a guess?

Good point Stealth , first team coming or not would still have brought in a much needed cash boost.

Would appear it's possibly back on again. www.keighleycougars.com/?p=3633

Maybe i'm missing something here but shouldn't the club know whether it's own stadium is available or not?

It just comes across as a bit bizarre.

Its not our stadium, its when the Hull stadium is available for there friendly with them so then we will play them Friday or Sunday

That makes sense. I'm assuming that that's in case Hull City get to the 4th round of the FA Cup and get a home draw at the KC. So I guess we won't know for another 10 days or so.

I think the website could do with being a being a little clearer on that.

On here its down as the Friday www.keighleycougars.com/?page_id=14

It will almost certainly be Friday unless Hull City beat Ipswich Town in the cup, then draw one of the big 5 Premier League clubs and the TV schedule that game for a Sunday.

Well it's been confirmed on the Bulls website that we're playing your lot on Friday night and Hull on Sunday.

So I'd imagine that we'll be sending over a B side made up of fringe players and up and coming youngsters possibly similar to the team we put out on Boxing Day against Castleford.
