Nah mate im thinking clearly

Obviously you boys are the team to beat this year having spent umpteen years trying to get out of NL1 So for this reason you have the experience as a squad over Barrow. On paper you should win but your over confidence about how this season will pan out somewhat pleases me because you are under estimating Barrow already.

Like iv'e said i am looking forward to some good matches between the 2 clubs (hopefully the first being the NRC final )

"Ran ragged" is mentioned a lot for a team scoring two tries?

Still a good win for Barrow.

It would be a tradegy if we get Widnes away.
Come on does the game never learn, the top two of each group should have been seeded, Widnes will finish second if they win at Barrow and we could draw each other!
Last year we had the most one sided Final ever with Donny getting there.

What benefit do you have for doing well in your group (other than qualifying)? - Nowt.

I would like York away, nice trip and very winnable game, next would be Oldham away.
Other than that anybody at home.

I bet the boffins want a Fax v Widnes Final - I would just love us to get to a Final.

Why would the "boffins" want a Widnes V Fax final,what have these two teams got that is so much better than the other teams.Widnes for one have been far from impressive this year.

You must stop believing your own press I am confident that both these teams will lose to the other teams this season and no way are they head and shoulders above the rest.

Please stop underestimating other teams it will only end in tears.

Agree with Twitch. I can see us losing a couple of games as will Widnes. I think Barrow, Haven , Toulouse and maybe Gateshead will be the graveyard for many teams.
Halifax are part time with no reserves-Will that bite us?
Widnes seem to have internal problems and the team has not gelled yet-Will that continue?
Leigh, Haven, Fev, Toulouse and Barrow will be looking to upset Fax and especially Widnes at any given chance and all teams will lift themselves for these two. However Widnes and Fax have strength in depth which Barrow, Fev, Haven and Leigh do not. They may have some unknowns who turn out as good players but they do not have the experience and guile that Fax and Widnes have.
Its why this League for me is the best as there is no one team that really stands out and anybody in NL1 can beat the other especially in their home games. Its just a shame more people do not watch these games as its way better than watching Leeds and Saints run away with things in SL!

I said the boffins as come on we and Widnes are the 'fancied' teams plus probably the best supported or in the top 4 anyway.
Lets see eh?

Does it really matter that a few people on a fans messageboard are 'under estimating' teams?

do you really think that Calland and the players are sat around in training talking about how we dont need to bother thinking about Barrow etc?

I could come on here and spout anything about any team and it wont make a jot of difference to how the club approaches games and the performance of the team.

So Twitch and Gary High... think before you speak.

Sorry mate I honestly thought every Fax player and coach read this messageboard and believed everything on it.

I will make sure in the future never to question any comment and only say great things about other teams in the league,and of course I was only joking I really think FAx will win every game and end the season with a points differance of 2000 for and 98 against.

oh thats good then!
glad you saw the error of your ways and how your meaningless comment really is as worthless as i suspected.

now go and tell everyone of the mighty Fax!..
