Whitehaven: New head coach Kyle Amor ‘proud’ after Dewsbury win

Whitehaven-born Amor, a regular pundit and co-commentator on TV for live Super League games, was brought in as predecessor Jonty Gorley resigned last Monday, the day after a win over Doncaster.

But the 37-year-old was able to coax a performance out of his players with Whitehaven only having one replacement on the bench compared to their opponent’s full complement of four.

The win relegated Dewsbury to League One and saw Whitehaven climb out of the relegation zone above Swinton Lions, with five games to play.

“To do what we’ve done there is the gutsiest thing I’ve seen,” he told BBC Radio Cumbria.

“14 players – the game’s tough with 17. Each and everyone of them should be applauded.

“They need to enjoy the admiration that comes their way but they need to understand that’s one step. We’ve got another five to go.”
