Don't you start with that as well. Shame on me for not finishing work until 7? Shame on someone else or not having the finance to go? Shame on the single parent having to stay at home with the kids?

Leave it out eh.

Got that wrong didn't I

Well done- cracking game but the more polished, professional and composed side won.

What a battle Said and Dickins had towards the end of the first half and start of the second. I thought they were going to kill each other at one point. Real old gladiator battle.

Tonight shows what an extra dimension and a settling influence Beswick has, while he was off in the first half, Fev scored 10 points. Then he came back on and seemed to play everywhere, taking up a few straight up drives.

The scrambling defence was brilliant at times and it seems the lads have a great bond and want to work for each other.

Just a shame the fans can't be together instead of singing the same song every 2 minutes, good following though.

Great game and enjoyed every minute of it. Fev were definitely our best test yet. Got a blooming headache from listening to that d@mn band all night though

Yep, a real ding dong, not just from these two, but across the field.

A cracking effort from both teams!!

A couple of us did give a rendition of the old scratching shed favourite "you are my sunshine" - you obviously were stood too close to the band to hear it

Saw your twins on the telly at the end, mate.

I've said the same thing before, Haighy. We are a different team without him on the field.

one departing fan said "Leaving a match proud to be a supporter isn't as good as winning, but it's a reasonable second."

No way did anyone from Fev say that!
Poetic licence me thiks.

Well, I've just been chatting to a good mate of mine who's a Fev fanatic and he reckons we deserved our win and he wished us all the best for the season, adding that the Fev fans he knocks around with hope that we win things if they can't 'cos they like us and said we're always a decent bunch to have some banter with in good taste. They're on the other hand expecting quite the opposite next sunday when Wire are down at the CMS for their big cup tie.
Come and say hello to him if you see me at Cas next week, we hope to be meeting up there.

Everyone seems to be forgetting that Fev started their pre-season about 2 months ahead of us as well.
