Just wonder how the lad is these days who was assaulted many years ago after the final ,,,,dave Stinger? ? Unfortunately at fev there has always been a certain minority element. Shame the name of the person responsible was never coughed up. Never say never though someone in a pub will know the answer and may decide to do the decent thing one day .
I think anything under 20 points loss is a moral victory but I can see it being a very hard day at the office

I spoke to Dave (Singer) on Tuesday over the phone in his care home and not withstanding his long term medical issues he is in good spirits.
We always mention Fax and FC Town as he is a big Town supporter.
I’ll pass on you were asking about him next time we speak as he will appreciate it.

I know we don't know each other and the point is you should feel comfortable to wear what ever you want and it is a poor state of affairs when you don't. However i will be going on sunday and if you would like to meet up in your fax shirt i will make sure that no harm or intimidation comes your way. The vast majority of fev fans are decent people and it would be a real shame for you to change your behavior for a minority of idiots.

Bentleyman is well capable of looking after himself. The point is he isn't comfortable wearing his Fax shirt at one, and only one, ground in Rugby League. That is wrong from so many angles and is a problem for the Featherstone club as much as any individual supporter. It is up to the people over there to do summat about it but they've had eleven years to do it and nowts happened yet.

To be fair I had not really thought about it until readng the comments but I probably won't be wearing a Fax top either. I will be shouting myself horse from the terraces though to make up for it.

I am well aware of the point he is making about feeling uncomfortable wearing is fax shirt and who is to blame for this. With the fire you have in your belly about this we could do with you playing this week or better still letting you loose in the family stand.

Re: Featherstone away : Fri Sep 03, 2021 4:51 pm  

As for the team this week if they are fit to play i would pick.
grix
salty
mcomb
worthington
rawsthorne
woody
robinson
murray
moore
kavanagh
garside
barber
fairbank

tangata
calcott
larroyer
curtis davies

This will be a very tough game for us to win we have to focus on trying to do the basic better then fev. Running harder tackling harder and working harder to give us a chance of winning but even then we will be up against it.

Re: Featherstone away : Sun Sep 05, 2021 4:05 pm  

Fev 54 v 22Fax. Embarrassing that. What's happened to our defence?

Re: Featherstone away : Sun Sep 05, 2021 4:32 pm  

Probably the result I anticipated .not too despondent with that when I look down the team sheets. Mcomb proves yet again to be worth his place
