The life of a chairman can be lonely and thankless. I can understand why LT was frustrated. An unprecedented year spent sorting out the old boards mess , and marching through the pandemic. Endless meetings with akward Cmbc. You finally get a game with spectators and within minutes " idiots" ignore the rules because they think they know better and it starts unravelling . It's at that point that other members of the board should have stepped up and helped lawrence out of the hole he was digging rather than disappear to their own social media keyboards . Lawrence will now know who is rowing the boat with him and who is not. My view is lawrence has the fortitude to recognise how he can improve for the future and also root out any rats that may be still on the ship.

Just listened to the post-game interviews with Grix, I thought you guys played pretty well overall and it was a good contest but Grix has kind of thrown Harris and Woodburn Hall under the bus there hasn't he, think you're going to see his brother back at full back soon for sure.

scott as looked better in the couple of games he as played this season but overall is performances since rejoining us in 2019 have shown to me he is not the answer simon seems to think he is and he is good at throwing players under the bus but never taking any blame himself

Other members of the board that were there were polite, courteous, and had people doing what needed to be done. Turner on the other hand was like a Bull chasing a big red rag, there are ways to conduct yourself and that wasn't it. This is at least the second time he has completely misdjudged his audience while dealing with fans. In future maybe its best he leaves things like this to the people that are good at it.

Its a shame really because with Grix at full back we go from having 3 players doing the hard graft to 2 as Grix will very rarely take the ball in and is basically played as another half back and lets face it we wern't exact good when he were in the side were we? We were crying out for a leader in the Bradford and Oldham games so it suggests to me he is not the answer.

By gum! A bit cryptic that is.

All in all Fev probably edged that game, just. We were o.k. but a few mistakes cost us against a very well organised team. On the other hand you could argue, with more than a bit of justification, that a certain Mr Grant has cost Fax four points already this season with yesterday and the bulls game being the ones in question. Great to be back at The Shay though and hopefully we can get back on't horse next week against Sheffield. Up The Fax! Three Pig's, Ossett White Rat 4.0% Mmm!

with robinson presumably out could he go with grix in the halves and keep woody at fullback me personally playing grix would be a last resort

His tone and language towards fans at fans forums in the past have left a lot to be desired and is foul language on sunday to fans weather they were in the wrong or not was way out of order

I think he should apologise but don't think he should be removed. I mean who makes up the money he has put in? Its not like the club is rolling in money.
