Whitehaven winning is a big pain in the backside for your lot.

Believe our Group now looks like this. As far as I understand it we are through no matter what unless we lose by more than 12 Points. I hope we put a strong team out and win by a few. Sounds a typical Fax Jekyll and hyde performance. Haven beating Oldham changed nothing. Swintons big win over gateshead is the pain

Wouldnt that put haven on 9 points and you on 8 leaving you out?

Reading that table you must win against Haven.

Yep I thought so, thats why I said it was a pain in the backside for them. Didn't expect them to beat Oldham at all.

The 8 would take them above Swinton and eliminate Hunslet on points difference.

It's last year all over again. Last minute try to Haven to win by 4 points after we rushed the kick despite the draw being ok

That's a great shout, Matt. 'Mon the bonus point. What an idea!

Come on 'Haven, needless to say. Though the 'easy' route last season didn't help us!

That's what happens when you only play for one half I'm afraid Fax. The the fup was that idiot shouting abuse over the players tunnel at the end when they were going in???

What a disapointment, poor game, poor Fax, poor crowd, cold oxo and droped my chips.

Burnt my tongue on our bovril. So disappointing for me also lol

Well, at least I won my bet with paddy power .....

A'h but you can afford the East Stand, only have oxo in the South stand.

Week in the sun did you good then.

It was like watching the scarecrow off the Wizard of Oz. If we only had a brain.
Why go for a little prod on the 6th when winning when a big boot down field makes the opposition have to come all the way down the pitch. OR ball up jumper or every other stupid mistake we made today, won't go into strange reffing decisions as we should have won this game regardless.
Poor display all rounf today I would say, blame it on the San Mig but the coach needs to get some thought processes going in the team.

What was the attendance? I havent seen it posted yet.

It will do in the long run.

Don't want to go on about coach again but playing a pretty lightweight pack saw us steam rollered in the first half.

Get some fat lads on.

Just short of 2,000

I still dont understand why we didnt go for goal when the half time hooter went.

As for a biased ref. Id say a poor ref rather than biased

Spent first half sobering up.

If thats the case, then you should be calling for your coach to be sacked. I understood from press reports that the week in Spain was a 'training' camp. To take players for a week 'training' abroad and to then allow them to booze to their hearts content prior to an important game is appallingly unprofessional.

Agree, we can't blame the ref for that first half today. Also what was going through Worrincys head today?

Regardless of how poor the ref was, i think we missed Patto and Nash today. We didnt seem to have any spart in that first half.
