Former Chemic Ant Walker, has by "mutual consent" left the Lions.

His best game for us, came just a week after "Noosegate" when he scored a couple of blockbusting tries in our win at Sheff.

Where next for him?

I have my thoughts, but admit that I know nowt more than you, so..............

Well have to see.

Yeah, he's become a(nother) Lion, who's now a Crusader, and............

Now Jordan Case had also "left my mutual consent". He's had injury probs of late, so we'll have to see if he retires, or finds another club.

With those two recent departures, there's now a mere five on the books who were with us last season!

We're up in the North East on Sunday to play Thunder, and it's another ground to add to my CV, as this term, they've re-located to Blaydon.

COME ON YOU LIONS!!!

Just back from Blaydon, where it finished Thunder 6-48 Lions.

Professional performance, but there's better teams than Newcastle.

To their credit, they never threw in the towel, and kept going till the end, even though they were well beaten.

Next up for us, is in a fortnight with a double header, when we host Dewsbury, and the girls are up against the Bulls.

We're walking again! So can you help please?

Prior to our game with Keighley on 22 June, we're engaging on our annual sponsored walk, raising funds for Blood Cancer UK, and the MNDA.

It's along the Bridgewater Canal from Barton Bridge to Heywood Road.

The Give as You Live page is now open on - donate.giveasyoulive.com/fundraising/swinton-lions-supporters-sponsored-walk

Or you can do a bank transfer to the TSB in Eccles  77-19-10    32413168

Thank you in advance.

Lions 10-26 Rams, and second best all round.

Four tries to two, and whilst their second from a kick, looked well offside, we were still beaten by a better side.

Their forwards bossed it, and also they landed five from five with the boot, which always helps.

On to Goole at home next week, hoping for better things!
