This side has taken 30 years off me this season, I feel like a kid again on match day.
Smashing Bradford live on tv and playing some superb Rugby is brilliant PR and marketing for the Club too.
We seem to have won a few fans on Skys panel too.
One very very proud Fax fan here, Thank you Richard, thank you Players, Thank you BOD's and Thank you
fellow fans, its been a great ride this season, and I cannot wait for next season now.
In Richard we trust and UTFAX.

Just a post to echo the thoughts and comments of those above regarding the complete transformation within a season of the Fax team under the guidance of RM and his coaching team. I heard yetserday that the result was the best since the second World War! The last time I saw us poop on Bradford's end of season party was in the Schuster era from memory.
This team has fantastic togetherness and the celebration they did at the end of the game just showed that in buckets. I am 54 and was acting like a 14 year old yesterday totally taken in by the whole occasion and in dreamland. It's made all those hundreds of miles and £ cost travelling with Mrs LTD this season, worthwhile for sure. It looks like we are building for the future and our season tickets have already been renewed. Let's get more people down the Shay next season and give the BOD and RM more support both vocally and financially to take us onwards and upwards. May the Fax be with you.

Just. The best season. Ever.

Brilliant and next season should be even better - I am fairly certain we are re-signing the majority of the team, which with a few carefully chosen additions should make us a force to be reckoned with next season. The thing that has let us down in the qualifiers has been lack of cover for injuries - a bit more depth in the squad can only help us next year.
We were so much better yesterday with Tommy back, Salty at FB and Jonno at HB - everyone back where they play best

The Ex NRL and SL players retirement village over the hill will gain a few more members over the off season. Luckily Degsy's pockets are very deep as he trys to take Salfords title of the most disfunctional team in RL. Back to us and our fitness compared to the full time teams has been great considering the restrictions that we have but Ive heard next season they should be even better with some of the new stuff that the club will be bringing in. Ive got a feeling next season will be even better than this one.

What a great way to end the season, last few have ended on a massive downer with no momentum being carried into the off-season, this is different. Next year we will hopefully have built on RMs first season and have his own team working on his pre-season, the excitements building already, just need Widnes to do what's expected today and it'll be like Christmas down the Shay with the extra funding.

Well done to all at the Fax, and thanks for a positive and uplifting season.

Anybody spared a thought for Miles Greenwood? It will be like a new signing,on a free, to have him looking for a starting position, adding strength and depth to a tremendous squad.

He just seems to get the best out of everyone. Some of the players that have been great this year I didnt rate at all at the start of the season. I really dont care who we sign because I know RM knows how to get the best out of them!

Best day and great to see the players in town after a special season we will not forget in a hurry

Just watched 2nd half again. Anybody else catch what Ben Thaler said just after Heaton finished off the length of the field try.
I quote. " God almighty, don't want too many of them"

will watch out for that and aussie jo and her silly spex !
from what i've seen already it looked a dreadfull turnout from fax fans ?

Did anyone here Steve Tyrer after we scored the last try when it shows the players celebrating? "F*ckin leave it Tommy" haha makes me laugh every time I here it.

Aye it didn't look good. Bradford though have only their selves to blame. There were six regular home and away Fax fans watching it on Sky with me In a pub in Bradford, none of us prepared to pay the extortionate admission prices. But what a brilliant session we had!

That's a tight bugger thee Hudd.

Didn't help being moved to Saturday at such short notice. I know a few people who couldn't go but would have been there if it had been on Sunday.

No disrespect Pete, I think we touched on this point earlier this season.
If the entrance fee had been say £5 less would you have gone?
Probably yes?
What's £5? two and a half pints?
I just think the players would have liked to see a better following, it was perhaps the most important game we have played for a few years, more important than any final we have been in over the last five? Years.
From now until next season put 10p aside for every pint you have, not only will you have enough to buy a season ticket, you will be able buy a couple of players.

A week Neil, that's what it was, a week to alter arrangements?
Blimey I wish my social calendar was that full.

For me it was a blessing having the game moved, I was on nights so would have missed it if it hadn't been on the telly.

Look in the shower, Norman, Charlie might be behind you.
Spooky.

HJ, I can't disagree with what you're saying. I just can't bring myself to fund the bullies. My season ticket for next season is already ordered!

Sportsman, Mallinsons 0070 3.9 % Mmm!

PMSL

I was away on holiday,and i presume so were many others, hence the poor following.I know a few people couldn,t make it because of the last minute change and having other arrangements in place.

Apparently the Bulls didn't bother to turn up either.

I love it,

I love it
