Surely though the players must know more what is going on - I cannot believe they were told - Right boys, the boss as just left so there is no training tonight - but we have a big game on Sunday so make sure you all turn up ..... surely senior players will have wanted to know what the thinking behind it was.

It will be tough but I will still go for a Fax win .....

As amateur sportsmen how many of us "failed to turn up"

How many of us ever went on to a pitch and not try to win?

I believe that the players know what hard work the backroom staff undertake, I believe they know how much a win means to us.

Tomorrow they will win a game that was always going to be difficult, I don't think they would want anything less.

Speak to you tomorrow night, hopefully not eating my own hat.

Fax to win this one late on.
Apart from when we play Leigh, we're a 2nd half team.
Team spirit, fitness levels, determination to eek out a win, are all traits our boys have shown over recent seasons that will come to the fore today. Losing a cup final in the last outing & losing the coach who they all loved playing for will be the buzz words on all the lads' minds in the build up to & during this fixture.
York will come at us for the first part of each half of the game with big energy, they're not a bad side with some decent players, but Halifax have some top quality match winners, dry-ish firm track will suit our style of running rubgy league.

It was bloody hard work in that heat and remember we are raising money for the under 23s
