It will be interesting, Alan. London should really be making the top four come end of season then.

Leigh will finish top and Bradford second. With a part-time team finding themselves very much in the deep end come the 8's, but also with nothing to lose.

Sure we had over 500 in 'The Last Orders' before the game - must be great having all them Lancashire folk visiting and spending money - unlike 'That Bradfort' lot icon_wink.gif icon_smile.gif

That's it this year, the RFL funding is set up to get the top 4 teams to go full time but last year Fev decided to spend it on their ground and facilities instead (fair enough).

Quote: chissitt "Don't watch Fev normally only went to compare you with Bradford, I don't know what their normal attendances are at Fev but compared to the Bulls it was poor, at a guess I'd say about 3 times as many. With regards to the playing side of things it took you till the second half to dominate them, whereas the Bulls were on top from the start, maybe you'll have to wait till you've been to Odsal to get a true comparison.'"


By that reckoning Batley must be one hell of a team to beat Bradford for 75 mins.

I count I think 19 seats wide x 20 rows per section,Yes we were spread out but easily filled 3 sections if we were all together..Thats 380 per section which = 1140.

That sort of kills your 4 buses scenario..

If Batley are one hell of a team, by your assumption Bradford must have played out of their skins to beat them in the last 5 minutes', only 5 games in and you seem to be getting nervy all ready.

We decided to remain in the seated DIY stand behind the sticks for the second half - to avoid being stood in the biting wind. (Wimps - I know!). We were of course joined by the Fev fans in the second half who had changed ends.

Although Fev were soundly beaten by a far better team on the day, their team did deserve some credit for not throwing in the towel. They just couldn't live with our boys faultless second half performance. They certainly didn't deserve their fans deserting them well before the end.

'The Walk' started around 68 minutes and by the time the final whistle went we were virtually sat on our own. If their season doesn't improve dramatically I don't expect them to travel too well to the LSV. The Fev club must be hugely disappointed in this response from their fans who have seen some very good times in recent years and who deserve better in terms of loyalty during their more recent financial challenges.
