Highs:

The mental opening game with the two sendings off,

The Bradford game with 19.5K in the ground

The Leeds game that was 0-0 at Half Time in 2004, a 0-0 game may sound dull, but this was top class NRL style rugby.

The win against Leeds in 2007 (AKA the game with the flags) big crowd, great atmosphere, great win

Several big wins against Saints in the first few years

The comeback against Saints in 2010

The Derby in 2010 with Briscoe's last minute game saving tackle: the best derby of the modern era for entertainment IMO

The 2012 Derby: Not just because we won, but how we won in style with a bunch of kids and a returning Radford.

My favourite has to be the Bradford Playoff in 2006 though, the atmosphere was unreal with 10mins to go when we realised we were Grand Final bound.

Lows:

The Saints game in 2005: Freezing cold, and a team that clearly had 'issues' off the field, was painful to watch. I still have nightmares about Blacklock slowly wandering to reclaim the ball, only to lose it and let Saints score.

Wakefield 2011: Another freezing cold early season tie, but one where we realised we were in for another year of dire rugby. The most exciting part was the 'Agar Out' chants at the end.

The Rovers playoff defeat in 2010: A decent season was rounded off with a limp display that reminded us all (again) why we needed Agar out.

Oh and some team beat us 42-6, but I've erased this from the memory.

All of the above, but the Bradford game has to be the stand-out. The atmosphere was electric - I was ringing my dad to let him hear the atmosphere and when I got home he rang to say "sorry couldn't hear a word you were saying, all I could hear was Old Faithful being sung!!" That was the idea dad icon_biggrin.gif Here's hoping to at least one game like that next season icon_cheers.gif

Worst for me for sure. I remember walking away just ranting about everything to do with the club, and I'm usually a very optimistic fan. A real low time that was.

As well as the obvious ones that have been mentioned I remember quite fondly Prekkie's swan dive try between the sticks, if not only for the fact that he was soundly berated by the angered homosexual behind me who in the most camp manner ever called him an idiot and felt he could have dropped the ball! The champagne rugby try against rovers this year that was kick started by Whitings superb offload was brilliant as well, not the kind of try you're used to seeing Hull score at the KC.

The Bradford game was one of the highlights of my watching FC life, those last 10 mins were just incredible , the excitement was awesome, dont think anyone sat down for that last 10 mins and then to walk out and find the fair in full swing was just the weirdest feeling ever as if a massive party had been laid on for the fans as they left..
just incredible.....

Briscoes wonder tackle will always be a huge moment too

funniest was vs HKR before the match kicked off when all the dudes in the corner starting singing who ate all the pies, and whos that fat tw&t in her red and white hat whilst pointing at this huge fat bird in the rovers crowd with a jokers hat on to which she stood up, wet to flick the Vs at us fell forward over the seats in front, then as she got up both her airbags popped out of her top.... cried serious tears of laughter along with about 2000 others....... she left the ground lol

“We will not accept a top eight finish as a barometer of supposed success at any point in the future whilst I am the owner of this club":16914.jpg



I was in an executive box for the Bradford play-off game. Went to meet my mates in Piper club after the game and got a lift there by no other than Mr Johnny Whitely, after we had finished our celebratory pint in the players lounge. That was a great night.

Few moments that haven't been mentioned (I think).

Richie Barnett going on the outside (down the East Stand) in possibly his first game, realising how good he was. Also him levelling Penkywicz (did he ever play again - what a hit).
Colin Best flying past the Halifax full back from about 60/70 yards out again down the East Stand.
Rich Whiting nailing Vainikolo.
Bryan Noble abusing a water bottle!

Welcome back Aldo!

Highlight for me is Preckie's try btw

Edit - followed closely by going on a behinds the scenes tour including a run on the pitch during one of the team reunion dinners with Johnny Whiteley, Greg Mackey and (I think) Patrick Entat

a high point would be the 2nd home game against Leeds in 2006, brilliant atmosphere and the moment when I really thought we had what it took to get to the grand final. also in 2004 in the first half when it was 0-0, despite the lack of a score it was a brilliant half of rugby.

a low point would be middle of 2009, still the worst season for me since I've been going, just seeing a pattern in the way our games were going and not looking like there was going to be any sort of improvement. went to most games debating with my dad how many tries we might score,

Many derby memories but the one i would like to relive the most would be 2008 at home. tight first half and scores even at half time. second half we found a higher gear and never looked back. oh and try by someone called Tom scoring the try which was the moment we knew we had won.
