It's time to stop talking about making mistakes and giving penalties away. Sort it out Calland!!

Ill discipline, no shape in defence, can't tackle, no shape in attack, no ideas in attack.

All due respect to fev, our squad is better than theirs to a man.


Their players know what to do. Ours don't. That is the difference

Fevs defence is superb. Giving us a lesson once again. Teams don't count for diddly squat on paper - they are a better team than us this season. The results and league table don't lie.

They have a better coach than us that's the difference

well said!!

The same old Fax under Calland. Plenty of mistakes, Poor defence, Lacl of concentration. Some games we can get away with it when the players individual skill gets us tries. Sadly Halifax will never win anything under Calland because we cant do the basics right. We had 5 sets of 6 and did not score. -poor.

Fev have some good players -some I would like to see at Fax. But as has been said the difference between Fax and Fev and Barrow last year is the Coach. Until we have a coach who can sort our weaknesses- concentration, discipline and defence, then we will always be entertainers but trophyless. I have banged on about this for a year now and still do not think Calland will get Fax to win anything. The question is which do people want us to be? For me I would rather be winning a trophy or two than be scoring a load of points and letting a load in as well.

what you on about hes the best manager in the league by a country mile!!!

After the season that Widnes are having... strange of them to come on here gloating.....

ill be the first to say i dont actually like cullen.. think he a idiot tbh

To be honest I am happy with a bonus point tonight as we were pretty much down to bare bones player wise then we lose Gleese mid way through the first half and after a short turn around we were always going to struggle against a confident top of table team that looked fresh after their 10 days off...

i cant say im a massive fan of calland but i dont think we can blame him for tonights defeat as we had many chances but it was down to poor individual performance, blacky dropping the ball despite playin some good kickin options and penky knockin on from the play off the ball, aizue isnt worth the time or space. Frank and Nash played well tonight but other than that nothin positive well played Fev.

Matt doesnt play but the structure out there was embarassing, either they carry out poor orders, or ignore orders, either way Matts got to shoulder responsibility, which is not new.
Forget refs mugging us, some of that rabble are mugging us, they were embarassing, and Matt Calland in charge.

Very very very poor tonight. No idea what to do anywhere on the field. Branighan, Bannister and Watene seemed to be the only players who turned up tonight. We really aren't going to get anywhere with Calland in charge. He keeps saying "we'll work on our defense" "we'll work on our discipline" well I'm sorry but it's obviously not working. Just to point out i'm not calling for Callands head as soon as we lose, i've not been keen on him for a good while now. What happened to this idea of him standing in the dugouts with the rest of the team?

Credit to Fev, nothing fancy they played it very simple and that's all they needed to do. And their defense was top notch. No "big" players but very well drilled.

But that blooming drum!

Poor night overall.

thats a fair point but droppin the ball and picking the ball up isnt something calland should take the blame for, these are sloppy basic errors, however he can be blamed for playin Aizue....please please get shut of him.

When you are dominated by a stronger defence like we were you are made to look hopeless in attack!

Our plays were slow - they put us on our backs every tackle and as a consequence no forward momentum and a lot of static flat plays.

MC can prepare them for all the moves in the world but if your not controlling the ruck forget it!
