Quote: Rotherham Fev Fan "well we'll see! Maybe we are, maybe we're not. Time will tell - eventually!
Last year we were by far the best team in the comp. We are currently playing football akin to the back end of last year.
Naturally, [some] Fax fans are more or less focussing on the two heavy losses we've had (given by the number of references to them on this forum)! Of course, that's ok by be. Why wouldn't it be?
I can't for the life of me explain our form at that time. Perhaps it was the heavy pitches, the intergration of newer players in the team, the distraction of the cup run etc - perhaps it was none of those things. But the two 60 points games were wholly uncharacteristic of fev - before and after that period.
I only hope Karl emulates what APPEARS to be the majority of Fax fans and believes that Fev are the team from 'thiose few weeks' and that another 60 points hammering of Fev is a certainty!!
Best team by far?? Dunno. We'll see eh?'"
Agreed, good post. You may or may not be the best team in this league but "by far"? Definitely not.
I also agree with the comment about heavy pitches but the sunny Sunday afternoon at Post Office Road when Halifax ran in 60 points was an absolute scorcher. We constantly say Halifax are still waiting for thd good weather and firm grounds so we can show what we are capable of but we are halfway thru the season and can't wait much longer.
Personally I think this season is the closest one for a long time. Halifax, Fev and Leigh are the best teams but have been made to work hard, at times, by everyone else. I just hope Thursday night isn't a thrashing be that win or lose.
