Quote: The Lucky Black Cat "I called for MC to go in the past. But I trust him to get us somewhere near a trophy especially after last year. He maybe needs to think before speaking but dont we all. People are panicing as usual and thinking just bad things. MC has plenty to learn and rather he learned it by us than elsewhere.
As for the Batley rabble they win one trophy for the first time since Adam & Eve and now believe they are so high and mightly. You have a top coach but the players in many cases are average. Batley will never win a GF or the League as they simply are not big enough club with the finances to compete. Batley will get a few shock wins but never enough to win the League or GF. Batley as many of the smaller clubs, see Fax as their Grand Final and will raise their game and it shows. The players at Fax need to wake up and realise that, not MC. MC does not put in such a pathetic effort as the first 40 minutes. The players need to realize there is no easy games and cant just turn up and expect to win.'"
Nice attempt to turn the tables, but it really doesn't wash. I don't see anyone from Batley getting high and mighty, just laughing at the attempts of your coach and a large number of your supporters to blame a defeat to one of the 'smaller' clubs on the referee. Thats exactly what it is - laughable. For the record, I don't know any Batley fans who see playing Halifax as being our 'GF'. You've been down here with us also-rans for so long now, its just another game against just another club in our league. We might have seen it as a big game back in 2004, but that illusion soon vanished when you escaped relegation to the games bottom tier that season. Hope you've enjoyed sinking to our level from your once lofty height, and despite the childish arrogance repeatedly displayed by a number of people involved with the Halifax club, I'll still enjoy my visits to The Shay in the many, many, many years to come.
