There's always been a close bond between Eagles and Fax fans - reflected in the number of players who have played for both clubs.

Such as Rob Worrincy and Sam Barlow, for instance.

The appeal will be heard tomorrow night. Relegation-haunted Batley Bulldogs have yet to decide whether they will appeal against a three-point deduction for a similar offence. Source

Very strange. For me, Batley need to appeal - even though they have a worse case - because even three points might well be enough to tip them over the edge into the nuclear wasteland that is Div 3.

Dons, on the other hand, will probably pick up fourth anyway and have no need to roll the dice.

Any road - it's for them to decide.

Was Owlerton or out of town for us this season. When we got the opportunity to play at the stadium, we were hardly going to say no.

Re: Featherstone Rovers v Sheffield Eagles preview. : Wed Aug 27, 2014 6:35 pm  

I agree re Owlerton however why cant we play at Bawtry Road until new stadium is built ? it said in the official match report for our recent home match against Rochdale it suited our expansive attacking style. Did anybody go ?
were there may freeloaders getting in for free
