Attendance was 7800 prob 500 in south stand and yep he made a noise or two lol not bad atendance for not one catalan fan

Wasn't 1500 tickets given away for free?

thats a good attendance, should see with the arrival of away fans get around 8,500 so not bad at all.

Agree with all of that.

Sandercock said in his Harry Poole Bar that the players were super confident before the game and they tried too hard. My mate's Dad spoke to Liam Salter in the car park and he said we made 21 errors which validates that.

It was disappointing the players couldn't steady themselves in the first half and gone in 6/12 points down because I'm sure we would have gone on to win the game.

Discipline and sloppy errors cost us.
I thought Withers had probably the worst 40 mins he has had with us in the first half.
Second half showed a few positives though and should give us some confidence to take into Saturday.

Yer for the south stand only and that wasn't full

Don't know where to start first half thought the ref was poor had a better second half, thought Carlisle had a good game and thought hodgy was better in the forwards, thought salter and caro were good but when I saw the Catalan pack I was like oh oh, they're gonna be a force this season menzies is a bloody robot lol

To do what? it wasnt tackling or keeping the ball for sure. They were as flat as a fart in the first half.

I thought Catalan looked very good to say they were missing their main playmaker in Dureau, big, fast and skillful, I'll be surprised if they're not there or there abouts at the end of the season.

And the positive from this is were in 8th position lol still don't think Bentham has forgiven us for him breaking his leg #that was so last season Bentham get over it

Catalans were excellent, you wouldn't have know Dureau was missing. Big, aggresive forwards & Menzies is a freak, he should be getting studied by scientists. They've a touch of the Harlem Globetrotters about them though, today it worked, some days it won't, that's the only thing that might stop them challenging.

I thought we went ok for 15-20 mins then the weight of possession started to tell & we cracked a bit too easily for my liking. Need a bit more resilience than that. Moving Hall & Withers left us looking a bit unbalanced imo. Still, early days.

You got beat easily, Catalans took their foot off the gas
