WITH seven teams from the Premier Division and the top three from Championship A and the leading four sides from Championship B, there is a meaty look to tomorrow's second round of the Bradford Premier League's Priestley Cup.

Hosts Hanging Heaton against Championship B leaders Townville and Premier Division front-runners Pudsey St Lawrence at Championship B promotion contenders Wrenthorpe catch the eye, but potentially the most mouth-watering tie is that between top-flight big guns Woodlands and Cleckheaton.

"At least we are at home," said Woodlands skipper Tim Jackson, who only left Cleckheaton this winter.

The teams have already met in the league this season at Moorend, and it was rather one-sided, with Cleckheaton making 309-2 (Chris Holliday 151no, Mohammed Khan 107no) and Woodlands 230 (Greg Finn 83).

"It was a good toss to win, and we would have batted first too if we had won the toss, but we succumbed to scoreboard pressure facing a total of over 300," said Jackson.

"Tomorrow would be a nice way to put that right, but we feel a bit hard done by as we faced New Farnley in the first round – maybe the league should think about seeding the cup a bit.

"We also have a big league match today at home to New Farnley.

"If we lose both matches, that is our chance of silverware gone for the season, but if we win both it will be give us a boost for the rest of the season."

Another boost for Woodlands is the return of Sarfraz Ahmed, with Jackson adding: "He has had a knee injury but should be fully fit for tomorrow."

Elsewhere, two promotion contenders face each other in Undercliffe (Championship A) and Gomersal (Championship B) at Intake Road, while Premier Division basement boys Scholes are at Yeadon, who are also pushing for a Championship A trophy, and Bradford & Bingley visit Methley.

Championship A leaders Batley are at Lightcliffe, while the only 'lightweight' tie is Baildon v Carlton.

As for the new league set-up, Jackson said: "It will take a couple of years to sort out, but it is a positive as you tended to get teams who came up and went straight back down.

"Now with the stronger teams from the Central Yorkshire League joining, that should mean that that won't happen so much."
