Good efort by Leigh to beat Fev on their own middin. Clearly that shillacking given out to Leigh, by Fax ,earlier on the season was a one off. Not many teams will got to Fev and come away with anything!Looks like Fax and Fev now both have one thing left to concentrate on re end of season! I actually think Batley may have a say in the NRC if the draw is kind to them.408 spectators for the curent Champions of our league is a tad embarrassing !

Oh I hope your right mate, and all fax and fev fans would be welcome to help cheer us on, but its a big if at the moment.

Good luck Batley, a great club with a nice outside bar and grade A chips.
I will be at the final as I have said, and if Batley get there I might even break a promise and go even if Sheffield get there as well.
Come on you dogs.

I suppose with us being out we have lost interest in the NRC and I think looking at whose left NR may have lost interest too.
Only teams of worth left in are Batley and Leigh.
Lets hope for a Batley v Leigh Final,
That should bring a bigger crowd to the Shay than any other game.

I might be wrong, but does the NRC final have a stand alone weekend? I thought due to the packed fixture list the teams who made the final would have to rearrange fixtures?

If not, I may go to the final, past couple of years the NRC final tickets have been a rock bottom price, probably the cheapest admission i've paid all season both years. If thats the case and there is a prospect of a good game then I'll go.

The 8 teams remaining all have a good chance I think, Sheffield have to be the current favourites but they aren't unbeatable, Leigh, Batley, Workington, Whitehaven, Dewsbury, Swinton & Doncaster can all play well on their day. Most of those are clubs who seem to play well at home. I've not got stats available but its often said that Batley, Dewsbury, Sheffield and the Cumbrian teams favour the conditions their home ground offers. So depending on who gets who in the draw could have a big bearing on who makes the semis.
