Got to say as nobody else has yet, a big thankyou to the BBC for last Sundays coverage which I recorded on Virgin Media and have watched twice!
They did us proud.
No patronising, no micky taking, calling us Fax, a piece on Wainhouse Tower, saying how good the pitch was, even mentioned the Faxettes!
It looked good on the telly don't you think, especially me at the end

If only Sky would treat us with the same respect, what is with them and Fax?

Robbie Paul (Hunter-Paul to be pedantic) was so impressed with the pitch he tweeted a picture of it

Yeah i forgot to take it but watched the highlights on BBC Sport, the pitch looked great, would have been better with am extra couple of thousand in but overall a good day.

Recorded and saved on dvd, great production BBC - a big well done (such a shame about the bloody commentary clowns of French and Davies).

and halicat

Ray French seemed to have alot of respect for us.

Honestly i thought the commentary was crap. Making a big thing about the defences when in reality they could easily have been watching a game that could have ended with a cricket score. Instead they should have been focusing on how well we were doing to put up a fight and make a game of it and focusing on some brilliant attacking play. Instead it was defence,defence, defence. I bet Sky Sports would have done a ton better job in that respect as they talk the game up much better. After the game interviewing about 6 people from Bradford and none from Fax was just a joke.

That was ridiculous. Other than that I agree with Fax4Life.

Tonight on Sky - Castleford losing 56-0 to Warrington.

Regarding the take-aways for Castleford from this match Eddie Hemmings asks .........................

"Any positives ........................?"

I thought Claire Balding reading the text from the Bulls fan saying "Get Fax back in Superleague as quickly as possible" was brilliant PR.

I agree, Davis was negative about every aspect of the match and French wasn't much better. There job is to sell the game and a good commentator can make a bad game seem good. They just killed it. BBC should look for new commentators.
