We're still the team everyone wants to beat, so, no, there would be street parties along the entire length of the M62 if we got into their position. You only had to look at the mix of shirts in the north stand that had taken the ASDA shilling - Stains, Hudds, Wire & Leigh were all there & I'm sure I noticed a couple of Whinos coming out at the end of the game.
As far as the game is concerned, it [iwas [/iembarrassing (5live were saying that Red Hall are going to look at Easter fixtures to stop it happening - which can only extend the season). But isn't it simply down to the depth of squads, rotation & man-management that allows us to do that? It was actually a good run-out for some of the crèche & they were enjoying scoring for fun. We've got to have that mindset of "grind the opposition into the dirt at every opportunity", take no prisoners. As an exhibition match I really rather enjoyed it.
