London at The Shay. : Wed Feb 02, 2022 10:32 am  

Despite enduring last Sunday's awful 2nd half at Batley I'm really looking forward to our return home to The Shay. This is a game where we have a good chance to open our account for the season and let's hope we take the opportunity with both hands. Looking on the London forum makes our fans seem very laid back in the face of a bad result. They certainly seem to be a club on the way down rather than up and we really need to take advantage whilst we can. Hopefully with the rub of the green and cutting out stupid mistakes and giving away stupid penalties we can manage the game better and I'll go for a Fax win by 20. Up The Fax!

Exactly Hudds, the point has been made about the huge disruption at Batley and I believe the first, which was out of their control led to the others that were firmly in their control, ie injury leading to fatigue, basic errors (trying to play the ball too quickly), frustration inevitably leads to ill disciple and as we all know penalties = points.
You can never legislate for injuries but we will have the best 17 available to start with and fixing the rest is firmly in our court, in that area you only get what you deserve.

Fax to give Laaaaaaarden a good tonking by at leats 3 scores.

I’m going to be cautious. Fax 26. London 10

London are getting weaker with each passing year. They were moderate in 2020, weaker in 2021, and have now gone part-time and lost another big contingent of what was left of their more experienced players.They look prime candidates for relegation to me unless they have a few gems amongst their new signings.

I thought Widnes might put 50 past them on Sunday, and wouldn't be surprised if Fax do this weekend. Their left side in particular leaked try after try against Widnes.

Never underestimate any team , I’m not that impressed this season with Fax’s signings , which is why I predicted a Batley win on Sunday , however I think Fax will win this Sunday , but not by much , maybe 10 points .Charlie knows .

Hello charlie it is always good to chew the fat with a fellow fan of blackpool there is not that many of us on here. As for underestimating london you may not be that impressed with our signings but we look far stronger then london this season and i would be very disappointed if that didn't show on sunday. Terry knows.

Terry , I realise a fair few Fax fans are very knowledgable in terms of the game and this years squad , I truly believe every team has strengthened ,my tips of teams to struggle this year are Haven , Worky , Sheff , and London , im not sure in what order though .
Yeah Blackpool fans are a dwindling group , I truly love the place ,and love chatting with Fax fans ,as I said I expect you to get a victory on Sunday , I’m not sure about Fev v Leigh it will be extremely difficult , but the season will develope so intriguing , good luck for Sunday , I’ve entered 2 teams in the Fax Fantasy League this season , and I’m waiting to see how the first week faired .

Yeah but the game won’t be played on paper , and have you ever seen McDonald , he’s a monster at centre , and we have Asiata, Amone , Aekins, who aren’t know in England , but all had blinders last week , as did Sam Stone , as I said it’s a long season , we have Hitchcox ,Wardle , and Ipape yet to come , plus a surprise signing .
