17/02/09 - Rotherham Metro into Semi Finals
Metro continued their great run of form in the British Championship by making the final weekend for the 7th consecutively time. However 2 victories over Welsh Wanderers and Invicta were subdued when Rotherham lost 15-7 against Manchester in the final qualifying game. All credit must go to Manchester and they showed off their superior fitness after both teams had less than 3 hours to recover from their second games respectively.
This now sets up a clash with Lancaster with a spot in the final at stake. Metro go into the tie as underdogs against the raining champions, furthermore Metro will miss the services of Jerome Gabarretta who faces an aggonising 1 game suspension after a rather harsh sending off with 3 minutes to go against Manchester.
Please make your way to the Manchester Aquatic Centre for a 1300 start against Lancaster.
