I came in from a night shift and was watching the live score update on the game instead of going to bed !. After 37 mins it all looked possible then 3 trys before half time by Hudds burst my bubble (46 min half !). Shows that they can be matched by a determined champ team (for a least almost a half), and maybe beaten by a full time, hungry, well coached Champ Team. If only we can find one

I'd say more hazardous. London will fancy their chances of beating a Super League side and getting to 3 wins, which along with points difference, would probably be enough if we lose this week.

What Batley suffered from was Soward (world class). We don't want to meet him in MPG - even if Wothington plays!

Theoretically you could need 4 wins to make the middle 8, normally 6 points would be enough (maybe with points difference) to make 5th and the MPG.

There are 28 games in the middle 8s therefore 56 on offer (the bottom 3 teams have to have a minimum of 6 of these points (three games that only include these teams), therefore the distribution could be 10, 10, 10, 10, 8, 6, 2, 0 for example and therefore 4 wins to get 5th. however the distribution is more likely to be something like 14, 12, 8, 8, 6, 6, 2, 0


Anyway safe journey over to anyone making the trip, hope we can get 4,000+ for the game.

Ambitious that. Especially as you seem to employ mathematically challenged counters when we visit

Not a shared gate this time though

Yep I realised that after I had posted

I think the big game for you now is Leeds.

You should be too good for Fev and Batley, while Leeds look to be the form side from SL, when you meet they will probably be six from six and nothing to play for, you turn them over and it puts two SL sides in the MPG.

Good luck and look forward to returning to the great rivalry between you an us, Widnes, next season.

Im 100% confident that Fev will be a different beast this coming Sunday, Sharp was furious after the Hudds game and the players will of known about it after im sure, We will be fired up, any complacency among your players and we could turn you over

Try "I'm sure that the players will HAVE been made aware of Sharp's annoyance after the game." It's just a suggestion but I think that it is easier to decipher.

Don't get me wrong, Mrs Bonger is a White Roser too. We are working on grammar, pronunciation and general decorum. She is also coming along very nicely as I tell her of Willie Tonga's amazing offload

Ging,I would also agree Fev will be more than up for it.Leigh will just be up for it more.Gone are the league games,and the stakes are getting higher with each game.Each game being a final,but there are no grounds for complacency yet.

27/04/14 Leigh 26-16 Fev

12/06/16 Leigh 16-12 Fev
21/08/16 Fev ??-?? Leigh

Only a perfect 10 could possibly lead to a long gap before the next meeting. Make it 10, Leythe!

Don't forget your final full stop and note that in Gentleman's English the full stop comes after the quotation marks.
See, I don't give a toss about punctuation or pedantics over there they're and there etc on a forum...
It comes across as a bit cockish...if tha gets me drift...

Good afternoon Robin, hope you are well?I'm OK could be better , but nowt a good Leyth win on Sunday won't put right,I hope to see you and Suggy in the Top House before the game ,for a Learned discussion about all things Cultural in Fev

,see ya Sunday. Charles.

Aye... some exciting badinage, intellectual discourse and biting repartee in the top house.....
OR
You could just come n talk sheeite wi me n ging dong

Sorry I won't see you in the Top House mate we are going into Pontefract on the minibus first, may see you at the bar in the ground though.

call in the golden ball opposite the bus station, the landlord is a fev fan and the ale is cheep

We have a bird in our local pet shop going cheep!

We will be in there early,leaving Leigh at 11am,yu know we only talk sheeite anyway,see ya Sunday.

having a go at gramma on a fans forum is like going into mcdees in a tuxedo, get a grip of your life dont forget its not easy typing on a phone when youv got big hands that have knocked plenty of leythers out while playing rugby against them

Cheers mate if we go near there will go in and hope to see you in the ground not seen you since the George and Dragon was it last season?

Its always a tough match at Fev but I feel this one Will be really difficult as Fev will have targeted this game as one they can win, fully expect them to come out all guns blazing.
Need to be 100% switched on from minute 1 to minute 80 to make sure we keep moving forward and keep everything in our hands as far as the 8's go.
Looking forward to it!

Agree with everything you say there JENKY it won't be an easy game we need to be focused for the full 80mins or we could become unstuck, I think we will be though to be fair.

yes thats the one
