Give the guy a chance, it's only short of a couple of punctuation marks and a couple of letters from words. Perhaps your perfection levels are why you're so analytical of the teams performances.

For me - the game was about boosting the clubs coffers, getting some much needed fresh air over the Christmas period, and having a craic with my mates at the game. A win would have been nice, but didn't spoil my day at all!!

It was a friendly - surely we wouldn't want the coach to be putting all our first choice players on the pitch and revealing all to one of our main rivals?? Give the kids a chance I say!!

Re: Fax v Fev 26/12/16 : Fri Dec 30, 2016 11:56 am  

The spine of the team needs to be settled on much quicker this year than last. I would expect by the Salford friendly that RM has a clear idea of his 1,6,7,9 and 13. We can't be experimenting still half way through the season-too many good sides in the league this season and points will not be easy to come by.
My spine would be
1, Salty
6 Moore
7 Johnston
9 Kaye
13 Murrell.

First half we matched them and had the better chances until a single penalty and quick Fev score brought them back into the game.
Second half with mainly newcomers and younger lads against a strong Rovers side it was largely one way traffic.
Boyle, Nelmes, Kaye went reasonably well, Grady ran hard enough and Punchard showed some nice touches.
It was a chance to see how some of the unknowns would go and have a look at the opposition who will be up again soon enough.
We all had a chance to get a reduction in the admission by using the clubs web site but if we don't use it hard to complain about it really.
I am hearing Johnno has had a hip problem which originally didn't look good but better after treatment.

It's a friendly, it's to be expected. I enjoyed it and was good to get some live rugby. I am still worried about our lack of punch in the forwards, more so then last season as we now have no Moore or Manning and the centres, we have the 2 fastest wingers in the league but will they see the ball?
Top 8 would be a good season however I predict we are 1 silly loss (like Rochdale away etc) from a relegation battle. I rate Marshall but don't think he has the tools for the job.

Ya just never know, although were 5-6-7th realistically, there's plenty of scope for us to improve, and for others to nose dive, team sports and their dynamics often throw up surprises.

We'll have to get off to a flier, get our noses up there, and cling on for our dear life, almost literally, praying that we pull off a couple of surprises along the way.

It's the only way I can see us getting back on some sort of keel, even if that's not an even one.

We lost a pre season friendly, in the words of the anti nowhere league 'So what'

I'm not perfect, far from it, and apologies if I've offended anyone. It's true that I do prefer folk to use punctuation and grammar correctly so that we can easily read and understand the messages that are being put forward, but accept I was maybe (ok, not maybe) a tad OTT this time.

I hope Fax do well this year, and wish everyone who wears blue'n'white a very Happy New Year.

New Year's resolution for me - stop being a grumpy sod...

Best thing we could do this year is challenge Scott to try take his fitness up to a totally new level. Imagine if he could lose a stone and pack on lean muscle, he would tear this league up. He is a sportsman after all.

Its a fallacy that he is unfit. He just looks it because of his shape. He just lacks a yard of pace and thats not something he will ever gain. Unfortunatley though it is one of the reasons our attack is so predictable when you have 2 half backs who are very similar playing together, both Moore and Murrell would look very good playing with a quick running half back but thats not a way that RM wants to play so it will be next season before that is changed as IMO if he sticks with it he probably wont be here next season.
