Match report will be on line ASAP btw, it's written but the website is playing silly buggers, I'll post it on here if anyone wants a read.

I was exhausted at the end of the match. Think I drove the grandkids to their various homes in a bit of a trance. The good the bad and the ugly last night.

Good - 2nd half comeback and Q's new try scoring record
Bad - 1st half
Ugly - altercations in the crowd at the end of the game

Altercations ?

Re: Official Match Thread - Featherstone at Home : Fri Aug 17, 2012 3:17 pm  

Yes Griff - altercations. I happened, much to my shame and regret, get involved in a verbal one with a Featherstone fan(??). My 14 year old grandson also witnessed a skirmish in the crowd at the end of the match so yes, there were altercations.

Great game, just a shame we couldn't land a drop goal at the end to win it, but anyone would have taken a draw before the game, and certainly would have at 0-16. If we take the spirit from the second half into the playoffs then we won't go far wrong. Well done to Q on breaking the record, he could end up smashing it to smithereens if we have a good enough run in the playoffs!

Can always rely on the Featherstone fans to add a touch of class to proceedings too, felt like I was at football more than RL last night!

just seen a re run of the game - I didn't know the score so thrilling entertainment - who got MOM ? must have been a tough call with 34 good performances !

well done Eagles for hanging in there - really impressed with the quick PTBs

looked like a good night too for Mr Hewer again ? maybe all games will be reffed like this one day ?

what as the cause of the post match aggro with the fans ?

Very, very disappointing.

On the ref - you wouldn't think so reading the Featherstone forum!

Their fans were at it all game and always are to be honest, there are a lot of decent folk support Fev but they definitely have a nasty element to their support.

Yeah - I just pointed out on their forum that, if the ref had wanted them to lose, he'd have been perfectly justified on giving a penalty at the end of the game.

have to say that after three Championship seasons at Toulouse the worst behaved fans were the Fev lot, some of whom were disgusting creatures which gave their good (normal) fans a bad name...having that scum is like a millstone around the neck of a great old club...

You just love coming on to the Featherstone forum don't you Mr Pepper and attempting to wind the fans up, and also your feeble attempts at humour
