We can still do it, says Jamie
Date published: 11 July 2012
JAMIE Dallimore still reckons Oldham can win promotion from Championship One as he prepares for his first senior game at Whitebank in eight weeks.
Due to a ban, his last Championship One appearance at home was in the 26-16 defeat by Whitehaven on May 20.
The Roughyeds half-back returned to the side at Whitehaven and scored a trademark solo try.
He is gearing up for a big game when London Skolars at Whitebank on Sunday (3pm), believing they could still sneak into the fourth promotion spot if Whitehaven freeze on the run-in.
“Hopefully, we will get a win at last,” said Jamie. “A lot of people have written us out of the promotion race, but the four clubs underneath Whitehaven, including ourselves, will all think they’ve still got an outside chance if the Cumbrians slip up badly.
“Until it’s mathematically impossible you can still hope, At the very least we are fighting to make the top-six play-off.”
