From the John Smith’s Stadium in Huddersfield to the Skydome in Coventry, from Billingham in the north east to the MKM Stadium in Hull, this weekend is one of the biggest for sporting drama in many a year, so much so that we could have done with a 20-page Sports Weekend to preview it. Ten just doesn’t do it justice.
Whether you’re a football fan or an ice hockey enthusiast, a rugby follower of either code, an avid watcher of Yorkshire at Headingley or someone who likes to plonk themselves on the settee to watch snooker, this weekend simply has it all. And from a Yorkshire perspective, as we come to crunch time in four of our team sports, there are so many clubs entering this weekend on a knife-edge.
The Titans’ season-long battle with Leeds Tykes has been a fascinating one, two former standard-bearers of Yorkshire rugby going toe-to-toe, win-for-win in pursuit of promotion. Rotherham blinked first but, crucially, Leeds blinked twice and when the Tykes take the field at Headingley after Leeds Rhinos women have taken on Warrington Wolves in rugby league’s Women’s Super League, they do so in the hope of winning to put a bit of scoreboard pressure on Rotherham.
