Speaking to Simon in the bar so did he.

As far as i know the stadium clock is not the official one.
Perhaps though someone ought to confirm that it's for "entertainment only"

I was keeping time myself, as was Terry and we both had a minute left as well. As did the Batley commentator. Strange.

Oh dear we'll have to wait for Griff.

I must've been the only person in the ground who thought the drop goal went wide. Incidentally doctor, what did you think was wrong with the interception try? From where I was stood, we charged the kick down, their player gathered it then lost it in the tackle, Dane picked it up and scored. What's wrong with that?

Well, what a game that was!

1st half was shocking, I thought when we finally got that try we would hopefully get another an maybe go in at halftime 22-12 down but that wasn't the case. Poor handling errors were our downfall again which is so frustrating to see, little mistakes like knock-ons and forward passes..

The 2nd half was excellent, Pat Smith, Hanson and Scott really stood up and played well and it's nice we are now in a position were Smith can play and give Henderson a break, up until last week he's practically played 80 minutes every week and we need to make sure he doesn't burn out..

Like E.S.O said I thought we did better without Menzie in the 2nd half which isn't a nice thing to say but he just didn't seem at the races.

Well done to Johnny Woodcock on his return, I wasn't even supporting the Eagles when he got injured!

On the crowd, where was all the Eagles fans? 1,174 and alot of that was Batley fans too which isn't great considering it was our 1st home game back at BL. On the Batley fans, on the whole they where fine but the chavs who sat near us and just moaned at the ref, baited us and chanted anti-eagles songs & then went silent when we took the lead. Pointless idiots

Finally, thanks to Mr Timekeeper as with ball in hand & a minute to go, I could see Batley going over or a winner!

I'm sure you'll be on soon to explain it all

To add a bit of spin to the drop goal,Sombody in the bar said it was disalowed because it didnt touch the floor before it was kicked

Forgot to mention Jonny Woodcock, was great to see him back, he proved he's still more than capable at this level, even if he has lost a yard of pace.

What ? It's better to have a penalty in your own half than a try ?

Optional kick on the 20m line. Doesn't matter whether it's on the full or not.

The great man? Why were you asking Sachin Tendulkar about time keeping?
