Errrrm nope

Finally the North Stand found its voice, after being a flat as the team has been for most of the season.

Eagles looked spent later on, so were easily taken apart, not to take away from some good individual performances and a fairly cohesive team performance. Mortimer stood out most for me.

Plenty of long term fan passing's have been marked before kick off with silence of applause so I found it odd that Frank's was bumbled out at half-time, about as shoddy as there being no programmes, I suspect they may have been printed but what can you say when the captain and his segment aren't at the club, the team sheet would have to be totally reworked and Purtill and another club representative have to try and muster up something to say after the disappointment of last week/the season as a whole. Hard to do seeing as everything was in flux up until Friday evening.

I hope we and Fev can maintain some good form before we (hopefully/inevitably) meet over the shield and put on a fine match.

Agree Deeks,the applause for Franks passing wasn't very organised,shame really he was a Top Bloke and a Top Leyther.His funeral is at 1.00pm at Howe Bridge Crem on 10th August followed by drinks at Leigh Miners,all are welcome.

Back to the game,we did fair good in the second half, for me Dawson was MoM,it can't be anything but a Fev v Leigh shield Final,how many in it will attract is anybodies guess.Still a wins a win today, I still say Jukesy was kept on to long,one more win and we would have finished 2nd, how did we lose a 16 point lead at home to Toulouse?

Ian, I would've definitely have attended Frank's funeral on Friday, but I am at Haydock races with a night with Paloma Faith.My thoughts and heart will sincerely go to Frank's family and friends.

Haven’t you completed your snide remark, there is no full stop at the end?

Why not?

One of the big failing in the off season recruitment, alongside taking a gamble at half back.

Could argue that we should have made the Hall / Dagger swap months ago. As soon as Fax lost QLT, they went and got Moss, rather than play a centre there.

Depart back to your other forum Starbug. He played well,end of. One winner today,that North Stand.

True I do spend more time ' over't road ' these days , however mightily impressed with the lad , pointed it out to the wife after less than ten minutes
Sheffield are a well drilled team getting back to some sort of the form they used to display , their league position shows that , but we restricted them to 2 try's , much less than other weaker teams have put past a supposed stronger team in recent matches , to me that was down to having a defence organising player at full back , as I said something we haven't seen since McNally

Can't agree with this. We need as many supporters on here as possible to make this forum as lively and wide ranging as possible.

Always happy to contribute on here VL , Similarily on tuther board , but you won't find me on that Facebook thingy , right bunch of loonies on there

I had a chat with Hutch his brother along with Morts and who should turn up but Riddy.. Was waiting for Mcnallly to arrive. But never happened. Riddy says thats normal.

Dont get me excited for nothing Atomic......... If that's what you are suggesting

Proud of the team the staff and supporters today. New faces fitted in and established names stepped up. Great show from MDJ, Morts showing his class.

Because he’s got a massive future with us

Dagger at just 19 showed he has a very bright future in the game. Tim Sheens is a wise man, he will not be letting this lad depart any day soon.

Depending on our circumstances, would be worth putting an enquiry about a season long loan however.

The passion and skill displayed by both HKR loan players, was superb.

What about the try by the Sheffield lad.Quickest half back seen at lsv this season

Thanks reffy. There could've been a comma after please.

Cory Aston, wasn't it? Son of coach Mark Aston, but only on loan to Sheffield from Castleford.

Spot on Alan.

I bet they thought "what the hell are we facing / comming in to"

When the North Stand bust into applause and singing during warm up, I saw both of them stood there in amazement, they looked and were mesmerized, it was great to see.

All the team couldn't have had a better welcome.

To me that was the most entertaining game of the season - strange but true cosidering our predicament.

Big hats off to the lads.

F00king dislike the c0cky little , always been a gobby dirty g1t - and went missing yesterday when the going gets tough

Keeps finding his way back to his dad as well - bet he thought he was the dogs bo££ocks when Leeds signed him

I thought the same, 'Zulu', and Sheffield contributed fully to that entertainment, in the first half. I thought it was played in an excellent spirit too - e.g. a couple of high tackles (one either way) and the two guys involved shook hands, patted shoulders and just got on with playing.

Yip

Praise where its due, Sheffield played their part in an entertaining game, no funny stuff and we left Senior alone too, he always got a bit of stick in the past !!
