Aston? You sure?
Didn't pull any trees up at our gaff.... or anywhere else for that matter. C1 player at best

You certainly were 2nd best in the halves but your forwards lost the collision and didn't give your halves any platform to work.
This is the first season I wouldn't have taken Murrell.
Dual reg.... foster went well.... but did the others really give your team any advantages?
We didn't play any DR yesterday. I'm happy with that.

All our DR/Loan players played well so that can be put to bed pretty early.

Same problem as last season. Penalties, unforced errors, and unable to score points.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

People saying Hitchcock looked uninterested everything came down Heaton's wing so hardly is fault. The faults were the halfs and also no fast play the ball we are slow off the mark etc. When you watch the leigh v Toronto game you will see how far we are behind

With respect didn't notice a tackle bust or decent off load from any of our DR forwards.As for Hitchcox,one opportunity to go full length simply didn't have the pace.I'm sure the likes of Sion Jones etc can tackle and run hard,i have different expectations from DR if we have to use it.That game at 8-4 going downhill was there for taking but as well as the obvious lack of guile we worrying ran out of fitness...

Well that's how I saw it n'all.

The game's not about pulling trees up.

How else would you like me to describe his time at Fev?
Mediocrity doesn't appear to have deterred him.
He wasn't thought well enough to retain him. He went elsewhere.... and elsewhere.... then elsewhere back to his fathas team. Presumably he'll take root back there.

You really believe Hitchcox was interested and put in a shift?

He hardly put a foot wrong. Not a bad debut for us at all.

Did nothing that Chester Butler couldn't have done,probably less.

Regardless of what Hitchcox can or can’t do Chester is a good player with the strength and size to be able to compete in the Championship now, unlike some of the other lads that are still to develope and should be given an extended run and can do a job on the wing.
Not sure that’s where his future lies, but he may not have one unless he gets some first team game time and sooner rather than later.

Upcoming talent stifled by unmerited DR again...as an asidev anyone who witnessed last night,were there any standouts ?

I thought he looked disinterested.
Appears we view his performance differentky

Not Greg's style to criticise individuals.Wouldn't be playing Sunday if i were in charge...

No I agree with that, but he did nothing wrong. Lets see if this weeks winger fairs any better.

Certainly appeared that way - despite 'fax being under the cosh for most of the 1st half he never once looked to help out the forwards by taking the ball up from inside his own 20, something I'd expect a winger to be doing.

The converse argument is just imagine what all these wingers think who are sent to stand out on our wing , Hitchcock , Bibey , Evalds ......can anyone recal them getting a decent pass in space from their ? Thereby lies the problem and to be frank that's why switching who we have on the wing won't do much until we pass them the bloody ball early or create a break.

Didn't he? Might be worth watching the game again then.

We'll disagree then. I've watched again. I haven't changed my mind.

I think you should've gone to Specsavers! In play, he touches the ball 5 times in the 1st half:
1. picks up a loose ball and runs.
2. AHB ca45m from his own line - passes
3. AHB ca10m from Fev line - passes
4. 'Quick' 20 m tap - runs
5. AHB ca35m from own line - runs

So im correct then. Also more yards in the 1st half than any other Fax player.



So 5 sets there and he ran 3 times including the loose ball. Considering how many sets we actually had in that 1st half and how many started on his side of the pitch that is not as bad as you want us to believe especially when Fevs attacking kicks were mainly down the JWH and Heaton side of the pitch.

So did Hitchcock get a pass from any Halifax player?

I think we all know the answer to that but a couple of Fev fans would have you believe he had a nightmare.

Stop the misrepresentation.... you know that's not what has been said...
I stand by my comments
