London on Good Friday : Sun Mar 28, 2021 9:38 am  

Will it be a good Friday? There's a chance to see London v York on the tv today and see what we are up against. Before the Batley game I would have been confident of starting our league campaign on a high but not so sure now. Hopefully with players back we can do the business and, for a change, get off to a flying start. Up The Fax!

Well after yesterday's result, there my be a faint glimmer of hope shining through especially with Worthington, Hewitt, Bourouh and Kavanagh now in contention. I'll certainly be watching, let's hope it's not another false start. Fax by 8.

London looked very solid defensively but created next to nowt going forward. That said they had their first choice half backs missing so we'll see what sort of team they have out on Friday. Hopefully Fax will be at or near full strength and we can get the season off to a flyer but...London by eight, hope I'm wrong. Up The Fax!

I think it was moved to 5.00 sometime last week.

watching the game yesterday i nearly fell asleep it was really poor but london did have about 5 players missing if they all return they should be a fair bit stronger i think halifax should win this one by 2 to 3 scores 28-12 to fax we need to improve a lot our selves on the batley performance and hopefully our coach will pick our best fullback at fullback in woodburn hall not his brother but i wouldnt hold my breath

Personally not sure what Grix did wrong. Against Batley he was our stand out back for me, the only one who could beat a man.

batleys second try from the high kick he was nowhere near by the time salty saw what was happening it was too late to stop the batley player from catching the ball and they scored i think he as been a very poor signing after watching him on loan we should have never of signed him on a perminent deal but thats brotherly love for you

Reserving judgement on this one. I thought we were in with a real chance of going 3 wins from 3 to start the league but I saw nothing in the Batley game that suggests we could win any of our first 3. Hopefully with the players back it adds a bit of size to our pack and with Bourough in the team it does look like we have a hooker who can actually make a difference off the bench.

Well if you believe what you read on't London forum we should walk this one. They seem to be low on players already and don't rate their chances much. We'll see on Friday what the two teams look like. Up The Fax!
