Next two games are massive looking at the league table!
Where have Donny come from?!

Leigh are beatable by the looks of their last 2 games going very close. Can't wait for next week! Hope the fans come out in force

Coming back now, sittIng in the back of son, halifaxpauls car. He rang to tell me he was going to the game, offering a lift, just as I had parted with my £15 and was sat comfortably on the charabang
Good game, when we were 10 points up I remarked that I would be very disappointed if we let them score. Oops.
Good second half.
Got done for crossing on at least three occasions and gave the ball away with ambitious passes that went astray on a couple of occasions.
Luke Ambler took at least three cheap high shots which went unpunished.
Have been told that Adam Robinson has broken his arm, unconfirmed.
Just rung Mrs halifaxjohn to tell her to chill the coke, get the ice cubes ready, slice the lemon and have the ltr bottle of Bacardi next to "his Masters" chair. Mmmmm.
Int life brilliant.

Just missing the Fishers Pork Pie now John Congrats on the win ,Charlie knew .

Really hope you're wrong about Robbo, he has been immense so far. Grove, shudds, Wantsum Ravening Wolf 5.9% Mmm!

Did't go due to birthday party but that's a cracking win.

Re: haven v fax score : Sun Mar 23, 2014 7:27 pm  

we have a potential star in the making on our hands in Ben Johnston

Re: haven v fax score : Sun Mar 23, 2014 8:32 pm  

First half wasnt great but we were more than comfortable in the second half after the bollocking that KH must have gave them.

We need to be better than we were in the first half because no disrespect to Haven a good team may have put the game to bed. That said and a win is a win at a place we traditionally struggle. Just need to keep picking up the wins as next week is a massive game now. The top 2 are really there for the taking this season as for me I cant see any team running away with it.

Re: haven v fax score : Sun Mar 23, 2014 8:34 pm  

Honesthalifaxjohn has to say tho' Scott's try on 44 mins should have been disallowed, the ball was knocked out of his hands before grounding, another fax player picked the ball up and four or five fax players shouted "ground the ball"
Not grumbling tho as it's not often things seem to go our way.
Bad accident on the M60 delayed us by 40 mins so just having my first Bacardi and coke, mmmmmm.
A great day out, we are on the up.

Thanks Charlie, see you in the Wren, and I will accept the pie.
A good win for both of us but, don't rule out Fev, a wounded tiger, etc.
Let's just enjoy our day.

Just got back from sunny Cumbria and have to say I didn't see that one coming regarding how comfortable we looked in controlling the game-certainly second half. Murrel and Johnstone were too hot to handle at half back and everybody put a shift on today. Game management was great using kicking game to good effect and defence was split by kick chase rather than poor tackling. Gutted for Robbo as he adds another dynamic to our attack when he is on the field-just a simple contact on the arm when he went to tackle-straight off. Also meant we had to play over an hour with one less interchange player -great effort. Pass from Tyrer to put Saxton in was quality. Been saying all season there will be teams taking points off each other that you wouldn't expect. At least we are heading toward top 5 now and well away from bottom 5! I could have sworn I heard the crowd announced as 751. Donny game looks like being massive now for both teams!

Good win today we started well and looked in control, they got a dodgy try and some how they were level, second half we got back on track and could have won by more, its good to beat Haven at their place after all those years of losing.
