Loverat misses out this week; a dislocated thumb required surgery so Dave is out for 6 weeks. Wishing you a speedy recovery from all at I's, Dave. XXX.
Also digitally challenged is Joe Barker who knocked out a finger! A couple of weeks should see Joe back in action.

The backroom boys have been struck down with Jims Revenge. Simmy, Wacca and Forthy are all ill so Darren MacIntyre steps into the breach on Saturday.
" I'll show 'em. Tap end,water boy, fourth official, easy, piece of p*ss." said Darren " After running the Hawks single handedly i can do this in my sleep"

The Hawks didn't have a game, then they did and now they haven't. York RI agreed to a game then within the hour decided not to bother. Bad news for new management team Kelk and Penna.

I have it on good authority that a certain Leeds club are providing the warm up fixture for the Ramblers next week. Yorkshire Carnegie take on Aberavon in the B&I Cup at BP with a 3pm K.O.
£10 advanced booking entry or £12 on the gate. Once I have found out how to upload the poster I'll put it on.

For this weeks first XV fixture the club will be supplying Autumn Bounty from Newsome brewery. this is a 4.1% amber beer with a nutty aroma and a fruity hop finish. The hops are grown in Ellerker. It is truly Autumn because the pies are available with mushy peas this week ( there is a rumour that there may also be gravy. )
