Re: Fev big game rallying call : Thu Jul 13, 2017 4:14 pm
Fax are not subjected to any special treatment by Fev fans, I've heard complaints from plenty of other fans at different clubs, if Rugby League is a family, they seem like the teenage family member who needs to grow up, drink less or get a girlfriend.However, they would never stop me watching Fax, its hardly Galatasaray vs Fenerbache, but I doubt fans of our era will ever be able to forget what happened to one of our own after the GF.
Having said that, the club is run very well in rugby terms, and they are doing well on the field, which is currently better than us, but we can beat them. They always seem to beat us by making less mistakes and being more disciplined. Hardman is rock solid at the back, and Thackeray leads them round with simple guile and experience.
Our defence will be key, no silly penalties, and nick what we can near their line.
Make the trip Fax fans, if the Hull KR result goes well it could be a day to remember. I would go but family illness means my priorities must be within a HX postcode on Sunday.
Another massive 80 minutes lads, you can do it.
