celtic v hullfc to those who travellled there : Sun Feb 22, 2009 7:11 pm  

did the scoreline flatter you ... or them .....how did celtic play ....

I think the scoreline just about reflected the game.

I was not happy with a few of Leahy's decisions but you usually get the rub of the green later on in the season and the refs tend to even themselves out. There are exceptions but it tends to be the case.

scoreline was a fair reflection on the game, could have been a lot closer if leahy hadn't got in the way of a celtic player, causing him to collide, then again we had a try disallowed, couldn't see from where i was stood, but was judged to be forward

Yeah definetly a fair result.Celts like to give the ball some air and have plenty of willing runners.Downside is they seem to tire after about 50 mins.

Must admit I was totally puzzled by that decision. We were stood in line with play when the pass went out to Yeaman and it looked fine to me. I guess we will find out when the highlights are shown. I think the result was a fair reflection on the game.

4 myself, it was a scrappy game, but with ball in hand they are a creative side who will score try,s,a good brand of rugby that will get better,as for us we worked hard and when we got in the red zone,we have options which we did,nt have. all in all we over come a tough obstacle in there first home game and the final scoreline flattered them 4 me... great turn out by the fc loyal.

A good following from the B&W's as usual, so can one of those that made the journey tell me if Brewers Field has improved markedly from the ground that hosted the Bronco's when they utilised it for their 'on the road' game against us. I don't mind long away journeys to games when the facilities are better than that which our amateurs provide, so I'll be grateful for a truthful opinion. Thanks......grannyfan Cindy

What facilities do you need.

It had beer, bogs of a fashion and a stand with a roof on

So that puts it one up on Craven park

No Cindy I didn't see any difference whatsoever, even the three portoloos round the back of the stand, the same as last time.

More pillars in the stand then Castleford too. Makes for very bad viewing!

An Ugly win for us some good rugby in patches .. but we got the 2 points it took us 8 games last season to get to 4 points .. I think R Horne is playing well but that could be down to C Thorman .. Horney kick from the scum to put Tickle in was great to see he completely split Celtic's defence
