Thanks Charlie, just read it.
Glad you enjoyed your day and As I have said on another post, Leigh away will be no picnic for us.
Wish Leigh well.
O'h by the way Charlie, drinking in the 3 pigeons carries a health warning.

| Quote: johnny freeman fan club "I thought Fax played well but Rowley played the tactics all wrong , I think he went out for a spoiling game and it didn`t work as Fax just ignored it and just kept playing .There were also a couple of your players who gave up far too early and your Wigan player looked disinterested for most of the match, Penky was poor as well .
However another day and could be completely differant , we know it will be differant when we face you at your place.'"
Thanks for your comments, they are garbage though

| This was the 1st time in 45 years of watching Leigh I left with 15 minutes to go, that was embarrassing, having watched Leigh Miners v Leigh East under 16s in the morning the Leigh players need to watch them, commitment on defence flair in attack, the ability to pass a ball left and right and a fantastic game from both sides, so I went from watching rugby as it should be played to watching all out 1 man crap rugby, we as fans can see week in week out what's wrong so why can't the coaching staff!!!

| I have to say walking to the ground with my dad, He said he thought we would get tonked today, I replied no chance, we are starting to hit our straps and getting better every week. I thought we were exceptional yesterday and our forwards laid the platform for the creative side of things, However, I also thought Leigh showed no desire and made us look much better than we were. Defensively Leigh had a nightmare and could not defend the little grubber kicks through, i think 18 points alone were leaked right there.
Anyway, thanks to the fans who showed up and i will see you at your place for no doubt a reverse encounter as ussual.
Keep the faith

| Leigh wont be the only team that put in their worst performance of the season against us over the next few weeks.
We put it together for 40 minutes against Dewsbury and then 40 minutes against Doncaster and then for 60 minutes yesterday. Theres still plenty of rrom for improvement as Rhino pointed out. Its going to be hard to play like that all season but no team in the division would have lived with us yesterday which is especially scary for other teams considering we still have a few players to come in as well.

You did play well yesterday , i admit it , but what happens when you have an off day and you get tonked ?It will happen this season , believe me it happens to every team , they dont play perfect rugby all season , its not possible , the season is not over yet by a long way , and the top team doesnt always win everything , just look at Fev .

And that's one of the major faults in RL that has to change, The best and most consistent team all year around doesn't always win the main prize.
Its what's reducing interest in the week to week games as even Leigh's battering yesterday counts for nothing if we make the play offs (which given the standard of teams in this league this season and the fact 8 teams qualify is exceptionally likely ).

Agreed apart from getting tonked. I just cant see it with the group of players we have, the only thing getting Tonked will be the opposition packs.
Seriously though I dont think anyone at the club is getting too far ahead of themselves. Yesterday was the golfing equivalent of leading at the 5th hole and hitting a spanking good drive up the fairway.

All you can do is look to improve with the tools that are at your disposal. At Fax we are doing that so I for one am very happy. I want to see us compete for trophies in this league, that is all we can do really.

YOU CAN LEARN FROM THE PAST BUT NOT RELIVE IT.YOU CAN HOPE FOR THE FUTURE BUT CAN NEVER BE SURE THERE WILL BE ONE.: |
|
| Wether we are ever allowed in Super League again is not our descision but I do want our Club to be the best in this one ,both on and off the field .Even if we are in the second tier of 2 10 club Super League sides as has been suggested if things may go that way there is bound to be competition from the Clubs coming down.
So the sooner we start the better as far as I`m concerned.
