Dave Sear left watching the trains as Raiders derailed

NOW then dear reader, you may remember that I have previously educated you about the steam train that chugs along the railway line which runs parallel to the John Charles Stadium in East Leeds where the Hunslet Hawks play. You do? Oh good, that means you have been paying attention.

Finally, a real display for Raiders man Dave Sear

WHAT entertainment, but talk about frustrating – if only the Barrow Raiders team had produced displays like last week’s effort consistently throughout the season, then not only would we be in the play-offs, but attendances would have been up as well.

A chance to say thanks for Dave Sear

AS this evening’s game is the last home fixture of the current season, the match-day programme carries a message from the chairman thanking those volunteers who have put in so many hours on behalf of the club.

And now for something completely different, with Dave Sear

NOW then dear reader, I just happen to have it on good authority that you, like me, are a fan of Monty Python’s Flying Circus. (2 comments)

Same again please

DIANE and Lynn are two of the highly experienced dispensing operatives (barmaids) in my office (second bar stool along in the Cross Keys) and they were treated to an invitation to a box for the Easter Monday game against Widnes Vikings by my office manager Larry (prefers title of landlord).
