This. The Fax/Fev game was arguably the most crucial game in our (Fev)'s recent history, and it came at a time when we are some way off our standard of previous seasons (especially defensively) and distinctly vulnerable. It's funny how things go, topping the league four years on the trot and not really getting much tangible reward, yet in one of the most turbulent seasons you could imagine we have been pretty ordinary all the way through and yet we've managed to secure a huge prize.

I was nervous for days before the Fax game, and again the Keighley one last weekend, but if we do anything on Sunday or later in the play-offs it's just a bonus as far as I'm concerned. We've got our club back, a consolidating season next year will be fine by me too. It won't be a bad thing for expectations to be lowered for us, and we've seen the last of some of the horrible bombastic statements we were putting out earlier this season, which had nothing to do with the Fev I grew up with.

Charlie is predicting a Fev win on Sunday , Fev 28 v Fax 22 should be another cracker of a game , this result will make it a home game for Fax the week after and I WILL be there to cheer Fax on , and meet up with a few familiar faces .

How we have finished 2nd I will never know, weve been utter shiiiite in half the games most frustrating season iv ever seen. The pressure is off now weve won the coin see if they can play any better

Stokes is the referee. FFS.

Kiss this one goodbye that's for sure.

Bad season for you guys at times but as the 3 games between us this season including the pre friendly and lastly the Shay encounter showed we were and are still third best so no arguments whatsoever from me mate.

I will be there hoping but expect another Fev win by some margin.

If we do win I don't think it will be by a lot

As has been said I would like to get to the GF but if not it will be no great lose the main target has been achieved and it should help to solve some of the problems that was left by the 2 men who have gone As long as it's a good game and the atmosphere is great that will do for me

How we managed to finish 3rd i will never know either,a season of frustration once more

good luck and may the best team on the day win, we should that team two weeks on Sunday at LSV, see you then.

You have to beat Doncaster at the LSV first and you didn't manage that in the regular season

Not quite correct Quinny as they could meet in the playoff final

Dick? we should that team two weeks on Sunday?
