I personally thought we were the better side, we created more chances and had a lot more if the ball in attacking positions than Fev. The completion rate was poor, especially in the first half. We had chances to win the game and didn't take them. Exciting game but I thought the referee spoiled it with the constant whistle blowing. For both sides the referee gave and missed some stinkers. Areas I think we need to improve on are defence, we still don't seem to realise a man can't run without his legs, and a drop goal kicker/attempt. We could have took one in the 65th minute. I think we also look a bit flat in attack. Fev had lots of room to move where as we didn't. Mom I would give to Webster or Dave Allen, he made some hard yards and some great offloads.

Yes you were
No probs about the question.. it's a good one mate and we're probably in a position to answer it a bit better now...
Has it affected our season?? I suppose you would have to say that it has.. according to SOC and PC they haven't tried to compete in the open market for some players preferring to rely on the yoof in the academies and that certainly seems to be bearing some fruit. Fax, Barrow, Leigh and Fev have flexed their financial muscle this winter and I guess that shows in the league table. Having said that Fax went out and have tried to buy the league this year but aren't anywhere near as good as I'm sure they would have expected or hoped for.
We are doing far better than I feared at the start of the season and that fear seems to have been present in a number of fans.
I think that the major impact on the squad was the cut from £400k to £300k in the salary cap. We have definitely tried to trim the wage bill to fit under this.
I'm still very confident of the licence decision going our way in 2011 but that confidence is ebbing away slightly the nearer we get.
