We have heard this before yet Fev come back every year so don't rule them out although I think this time we will get the better of them, hopefully at Blackpool and the Shay!

We shall see, made some good signings that haven't been announced yet, got a real coach now after 2 idiots been in charge. Im confident Rovers will be a much fitter, better coached team next season with players that actually want to play for the shirt rather than just a wage packet. I might even make 1 in this year

Gingy I've heard you've signed Penky.

That's a shame John, will miss being sat with you a a good few other Fax fans, was hoping to cheer your lads on against Bradford again.

would of loved him in his hay day that's for sure

Dave you can always come and sit with the Leythers on the Saturday night and cheer us on, I intend watching Faxes game on the Sunday to cheer Fax on.

So Leigh get Bulls, 1 v 2, we get Fev, 4-5 and third placed Sheffield get an easy ride.

Strange how they decided who plays who.

I think London will be a harder team to beat next season,with maybe Dews as dark horses.

We can get together either before or after though.

A few people have picked up on my post and suggested (quite rightly) that Fev might (will) still be a big threat next season.
I agree, my post was simply to say that next season with the stability we have might put us in a stronger position than Fev.
Nothing would give me more pleasure than a strong Leigh, Fev and London.
Them with us in the top four in my humble opinion would be a great middle 8.

I think they very well could be but my issue is that you can only go on what you know now, therefore the full time Eagles appear to be getting an easy ride. The alternative though is that we get them so many may see Fev as an easier game, which I wouldn't necessarily disagree with.

What ?



We got stuffed last time !

Sheffield have got it easy have they? London stuffed them last season at Blackpool, if you remember.

One off game, I'm just stating that the games do not have any logic to how they have been selected.

the young half back that's off to the bulls had a blinder, Oscar Thomas

I'm probably stating the obvious and maybe it's been explained elsewhere and I've missed it, but won't the fixtures be drawn as follows-
Team 15 (that lot) v Team 18 (yep 18 ; ) ) therefore the top ranked game and last on the saturday.
Team 16 v Team 19 ( winners of the 'Failure to make the qualifiers' final) therefore second biggest game and therefore the last on Sunday.
Team 17 (fans) v Team 20.
And two local derbies.

Again, probably not that obvious but if so, i actually get it for a change and thats pretty rare.

17 fans ? Sheffield don't have that many

This explenation is as clear as mud,what are you smoking?The fixtures are decided by the RFL on a regional basis or as close as possible they don't need your Steven Hawkins theory to confuse us be happy we can put around 40 on Fev.

So it seems I am the latest to be taken to task by our new forum boss. I've finally arrived in the big time.

What a crazy theory I suggested. How far up the East Lancs Road is Odsal then you Muppett?

Professor Hawking will also be flattered with the comparison. I'm aware that he likes to have a theory of everything, But possibly this one would not be up there with 'Hawking Radiation' or event horizons however its still clearly too indepth for some. Erm 1v4, 2v5, 3v6, and a couple of REGIONAL games.That filled three whole blackboards when I was in my science lab.

Do yourself a favour, come and take a drag on what I'm apparently smoking and get back to writing that 'comical' and 'amusing' apparently slang Yorkshire clobbers that made you look like a royal t##t the other week. Sorry I don't mean royal t##t, I of course mean MR. Royal t##t.

Bring on the new season, at least we can get back to debating with our rival fans. Incidentally, when did I say I didn't want to take on Fev? I was probably too high to remember.

Great to read so many saying they are happy to play Fev.

It will make much more enjoyable when our new look team stuffs you

In yer dreams..

We'll see

Did you think you would come on here and read people saying they would rather play Bradford?

In my personal opinion Fev fans will get quite a shock at just how much Fax have improved in the middle eights and where they now see the bar as been set. I expect Fax to be even better next year where as looking at Fev's signings so far Im not so sure. Your half backs are ok but they wont perform behind an average pack.
