This was always going to be a tough encounter on the East coast against a side that will contest the Tom Beeutiman Cup Final against Cottingham Tigers next month but the way the blue and golds played in the opening 30 minutes suggested an unlikely victory.
This was probably Beverley’s most disappointing performance of the season at the Eastmount Community Centre last Saturday. They managed to field a fairly strong lineup with only Gavin Proctor a late withdrawal due to injury.
The blue and golds bowed out of the Tom Beautiman Cup on Saturday at the Beverley Leisure Centre. They had ample opportunity to win this tie and will again kick themselves for not making the most of their chances in attack.
Watching the two sides warm up last Saturday at the Leisure Centre, the sheer physical presence of the West Riding outfit was always going to be a deciding factor in this Yorkshire Cup tie.
The blue and golds will be very disappointed to have not taken both points from this encounter at Haworth Park. They led 12-0 after 15 minutes and were 22-14 up with just 15 minutes to go.They clearly have the ability to win games like this but a little bit of tactical naivety at times proved to be their undoing.
The blue and golds got the win last Saturday which will hopefully now kick start their season. The first half was an evenly contested affair with both sides turning around at the interval at 6-6.
This match had to be switched to the Leisure Centre after Beverley’s opponents discovered that no posts had been erected at their council owned pitch at Costello on the Friday before the game.
The blue and golds will start their Hull & District League campaign this Saturday away to Three Tuns (formerly GW Horners). Guy Adams was pleased with the squad’s only run out against quality opposition Wortley Dragons three weeks ago.
The blue and golds travelled out to Keyingham last Saturday on a near perfect Spring afternoon welcoming back Lee Stevens, Gavin Platt and Adam Norton from their various work commitments to bolster up the pack.
Beverley ARLC bowed out of the Council Cup at the first round stage last Saturday at Costello. In a familiar tale for the visitors. There was effort and enthusiasm aplenty but errors were made at vital stages.
Beverley’s season continues along the same theme. Pride and passion aplenty but littered with mistakes that are so often ruthlessly punished by the opposition.
The blue and golds went down to defeat again at the Leisure Centre last Saturday. Once again there was no shortage of effort, endeavour and spirit but they were sadly lacking a playmaker which would have converted pressure into points.
This was a desperately disappointing afternoon for the blue and golds at the Beverley Leisure Centre. A second half capitulation saw them concede 22 points without reply despite leading 12-8 at the break and the Haworth Park outfit having a man dismissed in the 39th minute. The game started poorly for the hosts with Beverley fumbling the kick off and the visitors scored in the corner off the resultant set…
The blue and golds bowed out of the Tom Beautiman Cup at the first round stage. They will rue many a missed chance as they squandered quality possession and field position. They threw almost everything at their opponents in the first 20 minutes but the final decisive pass too often went to ground. It was against the run of play that the visitors took the lead as a result of…
The blue and golds went down to defeat in dissapointing style at the Leisure Centre last Saturday. A stuttering below par performance saw them have ample chances to win the game against a much improved Horners outfit from last season. The hosts started brightly as Steve Davidson’s long pass found Lee Facus out wide who sprinted away and did well to score despite the best efforts of at least 2…
The blue and golds got their first league points of the season in convincing style on their travels to Lambwath last Saturday. Rich Shaw was able to field easily his strongest side thus far this season. Suddenly the prospects for the season look far brighter with team playing as a well organised cohesive unit. They looked far stronger in the pivotal positions with half backs Steve Connolly and Steve Davidson…
