HEAD coach Mick Cook says York City Knights could put a run of National League One victories together if they continue to play like they did against Leigh Centurions.

The Knights fell into the relegation zone following their 24-10 loss at Huntington Stadium.

But in doing so they nearly pulled off a shock against the title-chasing full-timers, and Cook reckons more performances like that would bring points "sooner rather than later".

The Knights have missed out on signing Salford forward Mitch Stringer on loan. The former London broncos player has returned on-loan to Sheffield.
