Quote ="ColD"Didn't go, how many Batley fans turned up.
Well done to the players in what must have n=been very difficult circumstances for them

Hard to say how many Batley brought - there were a smattering in both stands, but they weren't particularly vocal.....but then, they had nowt to shout about!!
Fantastic display today - all the more so in the circumstances!
A captain's 'knock' from Rob to earn MOM plaudits, although personally I thought Hoppy edged it!! The lad was immense, and all but unplayable at times!!
It's hard to single players out in a performance like that - the very epitome of a team display - but I feel Thornley is due a 'mention in dispatches' too. For me, he summed up the 'backs to the wall' nature of our defence today, and was tackling everything that moved!!
As has been said elsewhere, one word sums up our feelings after a display like that - PROUD!!!
Let's hope the off the field nonsense can be resolved soon - these lads deserve to be treated right!! And I still reckon, if the essence of that display can be summoned up again in the coming weeks and months, that we can yet have a huge part to play in the second half of the season!!
