So, anyone feeling confident?

Plenty of points, I think it will be close with Fax just getting home if Thacks plays.
Fax 26 Batley 24.
Crowd 1900

If we played anything like we did last week Batley will put 40 past us with ease. Pressure is on and confidence is on the floor. On holiday with wifey so I may be spared more agony.

Good luck lads.

Cant see anything but a Batley win unfortunately, they are hitting form and we are totally out of sorts.

Harrison's former team so I feel Fax might up the tempo for this one. Scrappy low scoring game though. 14-12 Fax. Att: 1376

Dunno, you would say Batley on confidence and form but can we play as badly as last weeks last 30 minutes and the York & Fev games? Surely we have a decent game still in us?
Not sure about the crowd will be pretty low I feel as people fed up around 1500

Charlie hates to say this

but a bullfrogs win will suit the Leythers .

Fax 30v10 Batley. No problem. Att, 1493.

Fax will win.

Salfordlad knows.

To be honest not that interested. Even if we do win it wont be pretty. The team for me don't look that interested despite all the words on Twitter and facebook. Actions speak louder than words. Time for players and coaches to either sort things out or just leave. No more excuses and feeling sorry and angry etc. Be honest with yourselves if not with us.

Normally on the morning of a game I'm rather excited. But today for the first time in a long time I'm questioning wether I really want to go.

Wouldn't miss it for the world

I haven't looked forward to a game in a long time!! Even the mrs who never interferes is asking me why I'm bothering!! Can't even get the kids to come!! I can't see anything but a Batley win... Hope I'm wrong but KH needs to walk in my opinion before its too late.... If it isn't already.

I hope I'm proved wrong, but after such a great start to the season the fire has certainly gone out. With all the rumours about players leaving ect, watching a half d side has little appeal, I feel sorry for the guys who know they will be here next season, having to play alongside those who don't who arent putting the effort in

Even the Courier can't be bothered putting out an on-line preview of the game to kindle up any interest.

To be fair, the courier is garbage these days. How many times do you go on the website and the "Top Story" you are greeted with is a 2 night stay for 2 in Loch McNowhere or something?

And for the second week in a row, I have backed an away win on coupon. Batley are +10 on the handicap.

No, it's usually 5 dullards advertising that their Dust Collector tube business in Walsden or Rastrick has won an industry award. Yawwwnnn.

Your both wrong it usually something like ACCIDENT bicycle got puncture on Halifax Rd, police attended scene but nobody was injured... A few spelling mistakes generally thrown in for good measure....!!

Fair play to Tom Scargill with his Town reports though. One of our better Sports journalists.

When I was a young lad, a good Phil Lyon preview of the game, team news and gossip got folk talking in pubs, clubs, homes, factories and offices and would attract substantial floaters to the game.

Main stream media still has a massive effect on Joe Publics decision on deciding what to watch. Unfortunately these days, our local Townsfolk are unwilling to follow their local team and are seen in numbers watching a Man Utd game in the pub.

There was one the other week. Firefighters attended a barbeque fire. It was extinguished before they arrived

Its like Alan Partridge has moved into Local Newspaper Journalism....

And as Chris points out, all those reports about the police attending a minor incident where no action was taken, its almost as if they have someone sat watching twitter, as soon as the police helicopter people tweet that they've been in Calderdale, they write a "report" for the website detailing nothing more than what the 140 character tweet of the police said, but padded out into a paragraph. then what REALLY riles me up (I need to get out more) is that they use the same image EVERY time.

Are you sure Francis ?

Good call..........very close and could have gone either way at the end.

Great game. Well played fax. What a catch by rettie for last try.
