Whitehaven Away : Tue Aug 23, 2016 10:27 am  

Score Predictions?

Not sure what to say TBH - we seem to be a shadow of the side who confidently brushed Haven aside on the opening day - gonna say - Fax by 6 - maybe 12-18 or 16-22.

Our heads have dropped and if I was a Haven fan whose side need points desperately - I'd sense an opportunity....

We were lucky to get a draw there when we were playing well.Looks like Oldham have put their cue in rack so we'll need to wait another week to get some points.

If the players do not fancy playing Dewsbury at home then I doubt a lot of them fancy a 3 hour trip to Haven. If we managed a win in our current state then the players have done well.

In this day and age, I suppose the players are just tied to a contract and do not receive a "Win Bonus/Winning pay".
Maybe a sponsor or the Supporters Trust could come up with some quick funds to give these lads an incentive to up their game a bit.

Surely Personal Pride and wearing the Blue & White is enough ?

Exactly. What happened to playing the game because you love it and wanting to win at all costs? The players do get winning pay but the great thing for the club is that they are saving money by them not going on the field and performing.

I don't think the players are playing to lose its possibly more a case of not being able to get enough motivation to win. As supporters I'm sure we would have given our all to wear the Fax shirt so I guess it's often difficult to understand why the players don't seem to be doing that, but I find difficult to watch these games so I do have some sympathy there.

Anyway I'm going Fax by 8 but won't be surprised if we lose up there, we have done enough times before.
