negatives - stewarding was bloody hopeless and led to much frustration.
The PA system was ropey at least where we were stood.
And the golden gamble ticket prize - £100? We paid £50 out at a reserve game and regularly pay out £500 at 1st team fixtures these days. Poor value and i understand why many fev fans declined.
Positives then.
Decent stadium with great views.
Cracking access and reasonable prices.
Choice of hostels very close by.
Top fans. Very hospitable and great craic which really made the day.

I thought at was an excellent performance from rovers. 6 & 9 played really well.

Fans seemed like a good bunch.. bit of beer throwing.. but that happens in the south stand when its all home supporters.... there was however one total muppet, some rovers fan (in his 50's) who tried to get right up next to westwood when he was kicking a goal after the second try... he was red in the face from shouting "yer bent f**King b*****d westwood.. f*****g q***r boy"... right next to the advertising hoardings.. a steward had hold him him trying to keep him off the pitch... then i saw him at half time buying a pint

what does a fan need to do to get thrown out of a ground these days?

Good side.. I can see them winning that division on the basis of yesterdays performance.

I really rate Briggs and would love to see him in SL, when he was in Leeds Academy he was man of the match in a game against Penrith Panthers who had several players who are now standing out in the NRL.

It's a shame that clubs don't recruit more from the National Leagues instead of only looking for overseas players.

I think you have to temper that mindset with the monies wanted by NL clubs for transfer and the desire (and salary requirements) for parttime players to go fulltime.

Thought Fev were terrific. Repeatedly running the ball out of their own 10/20 was impressive to say the least. Thought they might turn up with a forwards only game and just grind it repeatedly down the middle. They didn't and played some bloody good stuff.

I can see Kyle Briggs being snapped up shartly by a Super League team. I think I'm right in saying that he's the son of Karl Briggs, ex Halifax, Salford and Gateshead. He had a very good game yesterday and his goal kicking was spot on.
