I find it heart warming that people from the parochial backwaters like Halifax, Greater Manchester (you’d think Leigh would be their main rivals in the championship)
still want to come on here and rub it in - we’re clearly still a big name.

That said the panther socks will win this and continue to put pressure on the top two - question is by what score line?

Whilst I could see a team as unprofessional as Bradford doing something as stupid as that I can't see 'fax doing anything ore that racking up a cricket score and winding up squirrel nutkins p155ing themselves all the while...

I've honestly stopped caring, I forgot there was even a game on Sunday until my sister reminded me later on, thought to myself "we've probably lost by a few anyway" checked the score and wasn't even annoyed that barrow rolled us. I'm numb to it all now apparently.

We could.even beat them on a small pitch when they played a whole game with 12 men.
At least the rfl wont have to go far to borrow a cricket scoreboard

Must say a repeat of those handbags isn't exactly WW3. But kudos for trying to inject some enthusiasm into this fixture. You won't find much on here

Not even watching it on TV. Off to the other halfs parents for a meal and the Liverpool vs Man City game. I’d never do this, but at the moment I’m struggling to care like many of you.

Pressure on Fax. If they don’t put 50 on us they should be embarrassed

I’ll be there on Saturday. Hopefully we can enjoy some banter and a beer because it will be worse to see sympathetic looks instead.

I’ve never been a fan of magic / summer bash weekends. We’ve lost the vast majority and had some of our worst showings at these events. That ‘performance’ by Jamie Foster at full back vs giants for example was a horror show.

On a side note, I’ve been pleasantly surprised that GF sr has kept his cool with his son on the pitch. Could be something to watch out for if Fax start rocking up a score and decide to roughhouse a bit.

Either way this is going to be a bit of a walk over for Fax

Be funny to see Senior get smacked and Junior run in throwing haymakers haha! In all seriousness, if a grown man is being a knob to your son (who’s not an adult) you’re going to react. I’d hope the Fax players are a bit more mature than trying to be dirty to a 17 year old.

Heard a whisper that Liam Tindall could be back in this week

He is the 21 man squad.
