Personally it seemed our fans celebrated it the same way we would beating say Rochdale or Dewsbury, by moaning about how average we were and how if we play like that we will never make the 4. I cant say I saw that many people celebrating it like we may have a couple of seasons ago like it was some big coup.

Yeh.. that's why you keep coming back on here to try and convince us that's the case! I can't believe this thread is still running, we were fairly convincingly beat by our part time neighbours but we have only recently started to recover from hitting rock bottom so hardly any great surprise.

If I was a Fax fan, I'd probably make the most of it as well particularly given the many years of success we enjoyed at the highest level whilst they were making up the numbers. Now it's our turn but we will bounce back.

What a load of nonsense. So a team of 18/19/20 year olds, full time or not, have the physical strength to compete with 25/30 year old experienced old forwards? The fact that we ran you so close, is more testament to how good they are going to be in a few years rather than how good you are.

Leon is not fit, but we have no other players. But interesting that you know how much he is getting paid. Care to share?

Only guessing but he aint doing it for free and he is full time and no doubt will be on more than a Halifax player

How old is the leeds forward you want back on loan btw 19 ?

But he is good enough at only 19 hmm

18

Need to work on that guessing game.


And on a serious note, Oledzki is a freak of nature. Not something to compare other players to. Like Sam Burgess was at 18, just not quite at that level.

Thats what a few years in the Championship does to you. You'll see.

Right come on guys lets let it go. Here's a pop quiz question to change the subject

Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen was Christmas number 1 in 1975. The words "Bohemian Rhapsody" do not appear in the song but the title of the song that knocked it off number 1 spot in January 1976 does appear in Bohemian Rhapsody. Can you name that song. Please do not google it, obviously no prize for getting it right

Eyup Roger, got to be Mama Mia by Abba. Do I go into the draw to win a Bulls coffee mug?
