Believe me I enjoy games, even when we loose, that's why I turn up week after week and have done for lots of years, an I am the first to give praise where its due. I think the first 40 was ALL Batley and I have already said. But when a game us lost due to poor, poor referring decision, don't call it whinging just because its pointed out. I am big enough to accept the defeat no matter how it comes but that doesn't preclude me talking about it and giving my opinion.

I have already said "fair play" to Batley for hanging in to the end. They had to be there to get the penalty.

Well what does it matter? We still lost. Plus i'd be shocked if he didn't give us at least one dubious decision. Just the way it goes sometimes.
Personally i'm not a fan of threads just to moan at the ref.

Where have all the Batley fans come from? They never use this forum.

Guinny, Hull FC. says it all.
Thugs?



Was it an away game at Leeds?

Only when it suits their WUM's

Ok, I accept many of you have been magnanimous in defeat, but there are still plenty of whingers on here.
To say the game was decided by a dubious decision just because that was at the end of the game is wrong. Every try and decision contributes to the overall result. not just the last one.
Personally I thought the tackle that James Martin made (1 on 1) on your 40 / 30 line was excellent. The ref gave a penalty and that started a series of plays that saw you catch and overtake us. Was the game decided on that dubious decison? Possibly, but I don't hear mention of that on here.
What really winds me up is the way that some of you accuse the ref of cheating but then end the post with 'fair play to Batley, they hung in there'. Just accept you were beaten by Batley, not the referee.

Well played Batley.



I say Batley are a beter team.

Ok, let me explain my position. I think the referee had more than a hand in the outcome of today game. You have to accept in our sport that decisions will go for you and against you throughout a game and a season but when a contentious decision that does affect the result is made, then of course his abilities are going to come under scrutiny, hence why I have two opposing views of the game, And I have no issue with Batley winning the game, in the cold light of day, if we can do the bizz in cumbria it will be good to see them in the draw .

If its a well done you want, well here it is. I hope we get to play each other again in this cup, preferably at blackpool.

Beter? What's that?

Better than Widnes for sure

Fax lost today because we played too much dumb rugby.
