This afternoon we bid a warm ‘Leyther’ Artist David Hockney once said, “I'm a bit claustrophobic, I welcome to the players, officials and don't like crowds, I live by the sea - that's what I see when I supporters of Batley Bulldogs, for the come out of my house in Bridlington.” Kingstone Press Championship round Whilst we obviously can’t attribute the current decline in crowds, to twelve game. claustrophobia, I’m at a loss to understand what exactly is causing it. As a result of our resounding defeat at Halifax, Our average crowd last season was 1,660 – if you exclude the two in the previous fixture, we currently occupy lucrative home cup ties against Leeds and Halifax. This season we are fifth place in the Championship table, having averaging 1,331 – a decrease of almost 20%. Prior to today, we had been comprehensively beaten by three of the teams above us. Today only played two league games against teams who figured in last we play the fourth of those teams, and a quick glance at the table season’s Championship, Hunslet and Sheffield. These two fixtures saw below, illustrates the magnitude of our task. Batley have the meanest a reduction of just 11%. Of course, it’s not as simple as the bald defence in the league, averaging just 13 points conceded in their ten statistics suggest – for instance, those games against the Hawks and Championship games. Indeed, that was exactly how many they Eagles were played in the ‘Summer’ last season, whilst the conceded against Huddersfield in last week’s Challenge Cup tie. corresponding fixtures in 2013 were played out in near-Arctic Whilst four teams, including Leigh, have scored more points than conditions! them, the Bulldogs are proving true the adage that a sound defence Today’s visitors seem to be suffering similar problems. Their average wins matches! Their sole defeat this season was a narrow one at gates in 2013, excluding the cup tie with Huddersfield, are 778 – Sheffield, and their draw at home to Halifax was the only game in down by 18% on last season. Batley have played four teams, who which the ‘Shaymen’ have dropped a point so far. they met in 2012, and gates for those games are down by 19%. Encounters with the Bulldogs in recent seasons have proved difficult to forecast. Since 2006, we have managed to win five of the seven Latest Championship Table home league games, and four of the away ones. However, in knockout competitions, Batley have twice been victorious in the three games at KINGSTONE PRESS CHAMPIONSHIP TABLE - Leigh, whilst we have won the only cup game at Batley. Seven of as at 24th April 2013 those eighteen fixtures, have ended in ‘bonus point’ margins of less Team PWDLFor Against Points Bonus Points than twelve points. In 2011, we completed a league ‘double’ over the Points Diff Bulldogs, but last season they gained revenge by returning the compliment! 1 Halifax 11 10 10352 142 210 0 32 2 Batley 10 811270 129 141 1 27 Deja-Vu 3 Featherstone 10 802351 164 187 2 26 4 Sheffield 10 802307 192 115 1 25 Our last two away games have, oddly, produced the identical 5 Leigh 11 803322 246 76 0 24 score line – unfortunately both were defeats, by 10-60. The 6 York 10 406207 246 -39 3 15 first of those games, at Championship leaders Halifax, was a 7 Dewsbury 10 406191 259 -68 2 14 severe disappointment, as the home side monopolised 8 Whitehaven 11 407192 299 -107 2 14 possession, and utilised it magnificently, to put us to the 9 Swinton 10 307190 271 -81 4 13 sword.

Here are Paul’s thoughts on all the games since the Good Friday encounter with Swinton. Swinton reaction: (Won 20-12) Swinton had mammoth territory on our line in that second half. They only breached our line once at the very end; their other try was an intercept. In terms of desire shown and defensive commitment, it was outstanding. It was the slowest game of rugby league that I’ve seen for a long time. The rucks weren’t well controlled and that didn’t suit us. But in saying that we were pleased to get the win in “our house.” I’m pleased we got the win. There was every Ryan Brierley splits the Wigan defence reason for Swinton to be optimistic; they had Wigan reaction: (Lost 10-60) a new coach and a strong side out.
