Fax v Workington : Sun Feb 10, 2013 7:05 pm  

Well done Fax, sorry I couldn't be there with all the other intrepid fans.
Looking forward to a report, crowd, fax turnout, etc.
From reading the tweets
MOM, anyone from, Tyrer, Handforth and Manning, blimey a 40 yard break to score, haven't seen one of those for a couple of seasons,
Well done Team and supporters.

Well done on todays victory, thought your defence was fantastic, although we didnt offer much skill going forward.
Secondly well done to the 90 or so travelling fans in terrible forcasts. Your a top team in the league and i thought we went well against you, gaining a bonus point even though it was on home soil. Good luck for the remainder of the season

Thought your MOM was number 15, endless yards going forward, what a powerhouse. Attendance was also 1,017

No 15 = Adam Robinson

Better crowd than champions got Friday against Batley. Sheffield champions but still can't get the crowds

was so funny listening to there crowd cheering when they kicked that penalty to get a bonus point, you would have thought they had won the challange cup but fair play to them if that point keeps them up at the end of the season who can knock them

3 minutes to go 14 points down, we were never going to score 3 tries in that time so a bonus point was the only thing left to salvage from the game and to be truthful, I think we deserved to get something from the game.

We are a young team on a learning curve and I'm sure yesterday's game will stand us in good stead throughout the season. Once the grounds dry up a bit I think our mobile pack will upset one or two teams. I think Halifax and Fev will once again be the teams at the top, so best of luck for the rest of the season.

Every team would have done the same thing Geekay that's what the BP is all about.
To be honest that was a game where we could have easily come unstuck and was a very valuable 3 points.
No one will relish going to Town this year mate and i am sure they will improve week in week out.
It's a fair bit faster and tougher than Champonship 1 and when you adjust to the pace of it i'm sure there will be some good results.
4 points out of 6 for you is a good start and i'm glad that one is out of the way.

Cheers, we toughed it out and it was our defence that won it for us as you threw the kitchen sink at us with bombs, kicks to the corner, dabbing the ball into the in goal area and battering us for 20 minutes but we held out and then took our chances, Manning did brilliant to keep going to get his try that finally put you to bed.
Not sure how many went up but most fans in your bar were Fax fans and not all went on the coach like 6 of us and there were some of our fans in the seats so I guess around 150 looking at the overall gate, not bad for a winter trip up to Cumbria.
Good luck yourselves had no probs with the Town fans and they were happy at the end with how you went.
