After a week off the boys are back on the road, albeit a couple of junctions up the M62 where they'll face league leaders Normanton Knights at their self proclaimed Graveyard stadium.

The boys commence back training tomorrow and their coaches will be looking for a big response to the last game, one that will definitely be needed if they have any realistic chances of leaving WF6 with 2 competition points.

If you're at a loose end, why not come and cheer on the boys in the baking sunshine as they go toe to toe with the league table toppers, challenge cup and Wakefield cup finalists.

This should be a cracking game of grassroots junior rugby league!

Let's go Mustangs!!

Mustangs 8 - Queensbury 20

The Mustangs gave arguably their worst performance of the season against a well drilled and determined Queensbury side who took the two points on offer to leapfrog the hosts in the league table.

From the onset it wasn't the best of starts for Knottingley as a couple of players decided to not play at the eleventh hour and one without notifying the team of their absence.

Low completions resulted in good territory with repeat sets for the visitors who were able to expose weak defending out wide to open the scoring.

From the following kick off, Queensbury continued to play smart and again took advantage of poor errors by the hosts to again score out wide for another unconverted try.

The introduction of Harrison from the bench sparked life into the Mustangs outfit and despite not being able to train of late, managed to crash through several would be defenders to score on the left edge for a try Marley was unlucky not to convert.

Unfortunately normal service resumed and Queensbury bagged a further try brace to take a well deserved 16-4 lead into the halftime break.

The second half began to look more of an even balanced contest with neither side giving a back step.
It wasn't until the 55th minute the deadlock was eventually broken, a fine solo effort from captain Franki who broke from deep to race some 65 metres to score out wide.
Again Marley seeing his goal kick drift wide of the uprights.

The Mustangs revival was short lived as the visitors themselves scored out wide despite the best efforts of debutant Coby-Lee.

Best for Mustangs in a well below par performance were Cole, Harrison and Jamie who all worked tirelessly throughout.

The Mustangs are without a game this weekend but are back in league action a week on Wednesday when they make the short trip the league leaders Normanton Knights.

Final score - Knottingley Mustangs 8 - Queensbury 20

TRIES:

Harrison and Franki

The coaching team have named their 21 man squad ahead of this eagerly anticipated Division 2 clash with high flying Queensbury.

Jack S returns to the team having missed the last few weeks through injury and a welcome return is also in store for Connor G who rejoined the Mustangs this week, having not played since 2025.

Knottingley will also look to give a debut to new signing Coby-Lee who also joined the side this week, having not played for a number of years but previously starred for Fryston Warriors.

The boys return to action this Sunday with a big home tie against Queensbury who sit pretty in 4th place of the league table.

The Mustangs are still without a couple of long term absentees and now have a further loss via suspension but see Jack S return from concussion to bolster the ranks.

These two sides have never previously met but Queensbury have impressed with some good wins this season, particularly a 2-0 victory over Siddal on the opening day of the season.
They will also compete in this year's YJL continuation cup final, a trophy well known to the Mustangs having won this themselves last season and being the current holders.

As ever, the team and volunteers would love to see as many of you down to support the boys in this crucial league game so please come join us.
There are games on from 10:30 with our 15's starting off the day followed by the 16's then wrapped up by the under 18's clash.

Knottingley Mustangs 44 - 18 Farnley Falcons

The Mustangs ran out comfortable winners in the sunshine down at Howard's Field in a game not without controversy.

It took just two minutes before the hosts got the scoreboard ticking as a short kick on the last was fumbled by a Farnley Falcons player, but gleefully collected by powerhouse prop Harrison who crashed over for a try converted by Marley.

2 minutes later, key man Matty scored the first of his try hat-trick scored in just 12 minutes.
Harrison collecting from deep and breaking to the halfway before a superb offload found the supporting Cole who in turn released Matty with a suspected forward pass which the referee pointed to the line to award the try much to the disbelief to everyone within the ground including Matty himself.
Marley unable to convert the extras on this occasion.

A rapid ten minute try brace from Matty took his tally to 3 for the day with Marley adding one further conversion as the home side raced into a deserved 20-0 lead.

Next to cross was the impressive Tom, playing out of position for his side and interlinking nicely with Matty before bamboozling his way to the whitewash for a try converted by Marley.

The Mustangs took their convincing halftime lead into the sheds and normal service was resumed just 3 minutes into the second period as Harrison crashed onto a lovely Jack W line ball to skittle a number of defenders out of the way to dot the ball down next to the uprights.
Marley coolly adding the additional two points with ease and the Mustangs looking good for putting on more points.

However, Farnley had other ideas and full credit to them for their never say die attitude as they responded with a fine individual try from what appeared to be a nothing kick, turning it into a converted try.

Fast hands down the right edge from Knottingley saw them respond almost immediately to send centre Marley racing away. The Falcons full back looked to stop him short but released him at the same time to allow Marley to regain his feet and dive over for a deserved try that he successfully goaled from out wide.

The final minutes saw Farnley go back to back with converted tries that will no doubt have frustrated the Mustangs coaching team on what should have been a far more convincing scoreline.

Credit to Farnley for battling to the end when many teams could have just capitulated, getting their just rewards with some well taken tries to make the scoreboard more respectable.

The boys are back in league action on Sunday with a valuable 2 points up for grabs as they welcome Farnley Falcons to Howard's Field.

These two sides have never met so this is going to be an unknown challenge for the Mustangs who'll be looking to continue their league form and maintain pressure on the league leaders.

The Falcons will be coming and hoping to get their season up and running so this promises to be a great clash between two great grassroots junior rugby clubs.

Another lovely day is forecast so why not make the most of it and come join us to cheer the boys on whilst enjoying both the weather and the refreshments available.
