Hopefully you stay in the pub for all the games the club doesn't need fans like you, I always find it strange how people think the world revolves them , news flash pal no one gives a poop if you go or not , coming on to a forum to announce that you cut your nose off to spite your own face then presuming others followed suit shows how delusional you are.

You haven't answered my question as to how Hurrell played! I bet you didn't even attend the game yourself!

Eh? What does that mean? If I would have attended there would have been a great big blow up Listenup doll in the ground to greet me? Hey, faxcar would love that!

Barrow game to great big blow up dolls what a strange thing to be thinking, but I have heard he’s a bit undersized in other areas than a half pint glass.

Half a shandy's gone to his head , can't work out if he makes more sense sober or drunk. Probably gone looking for his shotgun.

Decent performance in really difficult conditions - some good performances from individuals - thought Inman was excellent, sometimes been critical of his service from dummy half, but was good today, and looked dangerous when running with the ball. Forwards were strong again, especially Calcott and Douglas, and JWH definitely growing into stand off role. Discipline again fairly good apart from Inmans silly shove, and the sin binning of Dixon. Judging by the look Eastwood gave him when he came off he was not impressed. On Hurrell seemed to grow into the game, disappointed he didnt back himself when close to the line,in the first half but there was more than enough to show what a good temporary addition he'd be, especially if we can use him more effectively close to opposition line.

On Dixon he has a pretty poor disciplinary record and needs to sort himself out or Eastwood will, not doing many minutes in his first spell and he was only just on the pitch for a couple of minutes in his second before he went looking for it with a Barrow player after being tackled then the 10 minutes in the bin for a daft shot whilst the player was on the floor.

Don’t think Hurrell touched the ball much in the first quarter as most of it went down the left side, must be hard coming back from a serious injury and into new side.

Charlie’s still a few weeks off so still short in the 3/4’s, does anyone know if he played in the 1985 cup for Fax would cup tie him for Saints and the Challenge Cup. Looking but haven’t found anything yet?

I didn't quite make it today ........ in the pub with the Fax top on but the weather was terrible! So I stayed in the pub for a cosy few pints. Now .... if the club hadn't charged the booking fee I'd have gone having paid for an advance ticket! I wonder how many other fans did the same? I bet the crowd didn't even top 1.5k ...... well, I told you so! How did Hurrell play?

If you paid the booking fee your advanced ticket is still cheaper than paying on the gate even if it is 20p or so. That’s still cheaper. I thought it was decent crowed today even without Tony Fax

Crowd was about 1400 according to someone at work,

I didn't go myself, similar to TonyFax I was in town, had some lunch. I felt cold, and the weather was garbage, but I went home instead. Mainly because I didn't want to pay £20+ to stand out in the cold all afternoon, could have stayed in the Piece Hall and done that for nowt.

From following via Xitter it seems like we did ok in the conditions, its another 2 points and that's what matters, Didn't expect Fev to lose at London and York have had a terrible start so need to be on guard next couple of weeks as they're going to want to try and bounce back
