In my opinion the best amateur club in the world

| Quote: chazzerboy "To put it in context not a bad season really. We dont appear to be spending what Leigh, Fev and Harrison even stated Dewsbury as spending more. Let too many quality players go Beswick, Penky, Black, Barlow to name a few. I would like KH to change the style and be more fluent in attack. This 5 drives and a kick will not attract the fans.
Need more quality in outside backs for next season IMO. Ben Kaye a disappointment for me this season.'"
I completely agree regarding Ben Kaye his speed from hooker is woeful at times and I wouldn't personally play him I would much rather have holden there instead IMO

| To put the season into context.... We've been poor, again..
The fans know it, The Board should know it, Karl should know it, The Players ought to know it..
The last hope for us now is to get to the Final and generate something positive. Can we do it ? Yes I suppose we can.
Will we do it? hmmm there's no indicator to suggest were going to do a Sheffield..

| Well done Mr T Hall on probably the most balanced post over the last two days. I know we are all disappointed but the level of vitriol posted on here over the last couple of days has beggared belief - mainly I note from people who never post after the winning games. Anyone would think we were facing relegation not 2 points off second place. Given our budget was the 4th largest this year, if we achieve 3rd we have batted above our weight. And to those of you making a stand and staying away from games - I am actually not interested. Everyone is entitled to do as they like, but I will continue to support my team like many others through thick and thin. The season has not finished and we need to get over this an get behind the lads

B*ll*cks, take away everybody's bonus points, we're still 3rd. Funny how people spin things to fit their argument. We are 3rd in a very competitive league, yes we've played some pretty gruesome rugby this year, however, why would you sack a coach who has got the team into a fairly competitive position with what is reputed to be a much reduced budget.

| Can't really compare until you lay out all finances, sources of income and benefactor contributions of all clubs. Relatively speaking we may be punching well above our weight with the finances available. Fev may have been expecting to walk the division with theirs and so may be disappointed that Leigh have stolen their thunder. Leigh may be sinking benefactor cash over the next three years in the hope of self sustaining returns.
I don't think Fax have the cash to splash in order to push into that top four next year.

| As long as we're in the top 5. Trophy time in third 8 league! Bring it on.
Never thought when I started following Fax and watched the glorious Preston, Bentley, Schuster, Austin, Anderson and Eadie moments that I'd be understanding of us settling for being one of the best of the third bests!
What on gods earth happened to my club?

| Brook's money ran out.
Gartland knew how much SL would cost
The game got too expensive. Bradford are testament to that. Gotta be careful with the cash.

Don't see how to be fair, didn't even fire me up to spend 15 quid for the next game.

Was he really? Wow!! I thought he'd slipped quietly away down South somewhere? He must be knocking on a bit now.

| Quote: charlie caroli "After attending the Fax v Leigh earlier in the season , I was very impressed with your Hospitality and the way your Sponsers are treated , along with the Facilities you have , they are definatly a match for what Leigh have on offer .Your ground and Fans are for me Superior to Fevs , maybe Karl has got some things wrong this season , but you are still in the mix , maybe not as favorites , I think the season may be a disappointment to you , but its not all been bad , personally I think if you show maybe around 6 of your current squad the door at the end of the season and recruit well you could still challenge for the Top 4 next year , obviously it wont be easy , but it wont be easy for anybody .
As you Faxers know I like Fax and want to see you challenging Fev , hopefully we will meet in this years GF , and stage a great game at Leeds , and then make plans for next season .Keep the Fax faith .
I doubt we will be in the Grand Final and on what I have seen against Fev on Sunday I think it will deffo be a Fev v Leigh Grand Final.
I have to ask do we want to get to the GF and get tonked by Leigh who are streets ahead of us at the moment?
Honest answer no thanks.

No??
Well if getting tonked by Leigh gives us another day out and my club more prize money, I'll happily take that.

Fax have given Leigh two good games this season so I wouldn't rule them out beating Leigh in the final if they both get there.
