Another great day out to come for the club and fans, just what we need too after posting a 20k profit.

I type as a liile bit drunk out my head thanks to hR LENZ WHO LEAVES OUR WORK TODAY: i THINK CONGRTATS TO fAX FOR WINNINGS hEUTE ABEND TODAY; sAUBER SUPER WORK: aFTER 15 BEERS MAYBE NOT BEST TO SPEAK BUT ANYWAY well done all and congrats. I probably look at thos tomoz morgen und think oh je! But well done Fax and sorry and hope you forgive me!!

Congratulations folks, see you at Blackpool.

20k profit too, surely speculative!

Sat here on the coach wishing my club were more like our big boy neighbours. I'm sick and tired of making money and cup finals

Fax - 4 finals in 3 years Bulls - 0 finals 0 playoffs 1 bankrupcy.... ouch

If our bid was speculative , theirs must have been a fairy story and a Grimme one at that.

Oh, I hope that wasn't taken wrongly. I wasn't being serious regarding the speculative figures, it was my attempt at humour but gaymers at 3.10 a pint has possibly affected my wording if I sounded like I was being negative.

What date is the final?Well done Fax.

Couldn't make it tonight but I managed to check the halftime score and wasn't impressed, but good god was I surprised when I saw the final score! Sounded awesome! Up the Fax!

We were dire in the first half, and looked like a side capable of turning over Fev in the second.

I don't know what Karl said at half-time, but boy did it work!!

Great turnout from Fax fans as well, especially considering the weather...

so glad Fax won.....Shefield att: 671.
The ground will be rockin' - even without the Mighty Leigh !!
If the final is 'half' as exciting as last year's, it will be a great game.
Obviously I think Fev will win....but who knows ?
Congratulations on a great fightback tonight.

29th july

I WAS at the game and saw every minute.

Your assumption of the game is spot on, not impressed with the first half at all, but boy, what a second half display.

Congratulations, great second half comeback. Gutted we couldn't hold on after a strong first half, and had we curled the conversion over from the last try who knows what might have happened, but such is life.

Best of luck on the final.

Awfull display first half with hardly a set completed but second half completely different team and to come back against a good Eagles side took some effort.
This win was a must, lets hope we can kick on and get some form back.

Good to meet Robin (RFF),top bloke

It's a very fair reflection of the game.

671 spectators though. There were a lot more than that?

I would have believed it more if they had announced 1,671. It would have been a nearer estimate of the crowd.

Are NRC games a shared gate by any chance?

I did think they announced 1671 at the time, but wasn't paying that much attention (more focused on what was happening on the pitch!).

There did seem to be a hell of a lot more than 671 there but that's what was announced.

Must be a split gate if thats the case then.

Garbage in the first half and thats putting it politely. Whatever was said to Handforth and Thackery in the interval worked because they were both fantastic in the second half, both looking good in attack and working really hard in defence. How much better do we look when them two fire. Once we get on a roll we are very hard to stop. Great second half lads.

Dont pack yer bags for Blackpool just yet though as we have a couple of important league games before we smash Fev in the final.

your gonna have to be a hell of a lot better florimo to smash this fev team at the minute, you never looked like scoring the other week against us


i hope you play tiger and thackeray again against us cos their non exsistant in big games

Here we go again iv never know a set of fans go from 1 extreme to another in such a short space of time, probably the reason weve no time for you. Thaz beat Sheff by 2 points and its back to world domination. Get a grip man for feks sake

That is true, however remind me what happened this year when it was Fev V Fax at POR.



I wouldn't know about them two specifically but again remind me what happened in the last 'big' game between Fax and Fev.

Fev are the best team in the league at the moment and IMO by a distance. However Fax are so unpredictable and as the game at POR proved when we are on our game we can be devastating.
