There is no way this match is going to be off. Great forecast on the coast.
The Groundsman has the pitch looking tip-top. 750 programmes ordered, 185 booked in for pre-match lunch (which will be 200 by Saturday). The match has been trailed on the back page of the local paper twice this week, Radio York will be broadcasting live for snipets.
BRING IT ON!
You can keep Twikers, the World Cup and the Premership. Nothing beats watching your home town team stuff it to your biggest rivals on a fresh Decembers day the week before Christmas.
If you're from Malton, Whitby, Driffield, Pocklington or York - I suggest you abandon your team for one week and come and see the CHRISTAMS CRACKER at Silver Royd.
How will Brid approach the game?. Normally their team talk is all about going up the coast to try and beat up the posh boys from the bigger club BUT Brid are top of the table and are full of talented rugby players? They don't do beating up this year, they do winning - OH NO, no team talk!!??
And what about Scabs? Sadly mid-table, players missing and lacking in confidence. But what's that i hear??? - suddenly out of nowhere the real Scarborough forwards turned up last week at Cas and played like the Scabs 8 of old. Big players back, playing like big players??
Well we'll know soon enough.
You're very quiet Mr Potatohead, is the thought of buying me a beer making you break out in a cold sweat?
