Sunday 3pm at The Shay.

Let's make no bones about it, we were awful last week. Dreadful. We will have to be much better to get anything on Sunday.

Halifax aren't in the best of form themselves though. They gave Swinton a bonus point on the opening day and have since lost to Featherstone and Batley. They're there for the taking IMO if we play to our potential. Their main off season signing was Simon Brown and there is nothing he can do that Tubbs doesn't know about and won't have prepared for!

Halifax 16-26 Eagles.

Att: 67036 (36 from Sheffield)

Pretty much agree they are there for the taking if we can put it together

Halifax 16-22 Eagles

Att: 1539

Quietly confident.

Beware the wounded Faxer

Charlie knew

.

Why didn't you say then ?



It was a good game - could have gone either way.

Quite an entertaining game in the end, I'm baffled as to why we only started playing in the last 10-12 minutes when the score was 24-10. To then get to 24-22, concede again and then score again, it was more gutting than it should have been. The first 68-70 minutes were poor from an Eagles perspective, a 10 point defeat would have probably been a fairer reflection of the game.

Reasonable day out, decided to go at the last minute. Given I live in Derbyshire and go can via Sheff/Manc on the train, I went via Manchester/Huddersfield on the train, rail replacement to Halifax as it was a lot easier. Time for a pint in a pub near the ground after, few Eagles fans in there I got talking to.

I'm away next weekend but we really need to beat East Leeds next week, 2 defeats on the trot is a bit worrying.

Aston out !

One of those fans was me! Nice to meet you!

Griff , I did

in an earlier post , its looking like a cracking league this season , with all clubs taking points off each other , im not taking anything for granted , yesterday we stole the game , but that's life , come July the season will be great .A tip for my seagull friends , Ericht at Cheltenham tomorrow , im not sure which race it is in , trained by Nicky Henderson , and around 8-1 .Charlie knows .

.

Ah - my mistake. I thought you said 22-16.

As Stevo says , that's being Pedantic

I knw it would be a close game , resulting in a Fax win .

You are cordially invited to enter the FREE Tipping comp for Cheltenham on our message Board .

All I know about hosses is they have a leg at each corner, Charlie.

Ive just backed one in the 3rd race at Cheltenham , to win , it came second at 33-1



im gutted as I didn't back it each way .





.

Just seen your tips for day Charlie, slightly worried you've gone for almost the exact same picks I have!

Well Brummie if you mean Wednesdays tips ?You will be doing OK , as ive backed and tipped 3 up to now and a second , Whisper was 14-1 , I had a few quid on that ,have faith in Charlie

.

Yeah was a good day yesterday, Whisper was a great winner! Certainly paid for a couple of away days this season!

Charlies tips are now on the message Board , though im less confident today and wont be risking much , im waiting till tomorrow , its Bobs Worth for the Gold Cup .My Grand National tip is Colbert Station .

Will you be having a Bob'sworth on it ?

Griff remember Charlie knows ,

Bobs Worths jockey is Barry Geraghty and he is riding like a man possessed , Bobs Worth is very lightly raced this season and has been trained to defend his Title .Im not sure where I am in the Leythers Tipping Comp for Cheltenham,but Charlie is NEVER far away from the lead .
