The draw is on sunday. About 16:45

Much better performance! Solid in the first half - did what we had to do against the slope. Pulverised them in the second half down the hill. There were VERY FEW mistakes made tonight and Branighan really does steady the ship.

Stood on the bottom end terracing - you get close to the play. Boy it's really fast when you get close to the action. Quick passing and quick stepping - it's amazing just how fast the game is - even at this level.

Can't understand people parking their car in the ground though - BMW lost it's windscreen tonight from a kick into touch.

We lacked 'go forward' in the pack 1st half and the play of the ball was far too slow (ref should have done more).

Once we speeded up the ruck we blew them away. Particularly when big Frank and Said made their presence felt.

Worrincy was redundant in the 2nd half as we dominated so much down the middle.

Fax confidence should be sky high now, perfect preparation for a long cup run

that was the highlight of the night, so funny, wonder if it was really that wingers car, i know when he came over to have a look he was not too happy,,



, how many people took pics of it ?????, lmao

Yer sounds right as not many there tonight plenty from Halifax so my guess is about 400 Fax fans and very sad to see only 233 from Swinton.
I hope Swinton can get a ground of their own actually in Swinton and not at a RU ground at the back of a housing estate in Whitefield.

It was a struggle first half and we struggled to get past the 'gain line' as they say. Lucky we got Brannigan back as he got us 2 tries out of nothing really. Was disappointed at half time but knew we had another gear if we needed it they didn't.
Second half we stepped it up with quicker play the balls and Penky did a lot of damage with his darting runs. The confidence shot up and some of our tries were class, we did get a bit of luck with a couple as well.
Blacky seems to be gaining confidence, good we need him.

Having been on Sedgley with well over 1,000 in attendance, I think 600 seems a little on the low side, personally. Good following from 'Fax, will be happy to see you bring as many as that to the LSV.

That crowd is very dissapointing. I blame myself entirely for my lack of attendance. I've let everyone down.

Didnt seem to 233 Swinton fans there I didnt even see 10
