Oh no not my ginger friend Stokes please tell me this is a wind up???
A prima donna our Stokesy

Halifax 24-18 Batley
att: 2,100
Stokes isn't ideal but we will have to be at our best to beat Batley

The players theyve got ??? Manning cant control himself when he tries to cave Sams face in every time you play Leigh. The mans possessed. Watch your own what youve got supposedly good clean players. As for Derek. Bet you wished you had one

Is Sam out of intensive care yet after Manning pushed him to the floor?

Fax by 8. If this was at Batley with THAT referee then I'd be going 8 points the other way. I expect a very frustrating afternoon with Stokes but a great battle on the pitch. Always good encounters against the Bulldogs.

Well after being no where near last week(50 point win for Fax) I'm going with the Bulldogs to win by 6-8. We've only beaten the bottom two in the league and lost significantly in our other match and the Dogs are on fire so the only sensible call is an away win. Taking that all in to account if we play to our potential then we could turn them over, hope we do. Chuck in Georgie Boy and who the hell knows what will happen, I just hope he keeps out of the way and allows a game of rugby to break out as it should be a cracker.

Not much chance of that. After all, you ARE all going to watch HIM, aren't you?

Of course, well he thinks that anyway.

Should be an excellent game. Batley are a different team, now they have an experienced (and classy) half back pairing.

May I compliment you on the composition of your post. The excellent structure of the sentences and the way your option is clearly put across to the reader. Your a credit to your Lancastrian schooling.

Our Lancastrian schooling would have us write "[size=150=#FF0000You're[/size" there.

Sorry Faxlore.. all of our teachers came across from the mighty Halifax. Their reasons being that over in Fax you cant put owt where there is nowt. Never understood that. But hey. Their words not mine.

Batley played very well last week. Genuine top four contenders.



They've had a tough start, too.

Johnny Kears teams should never be underestimated but it's time for our boys to reach the standards they've set for themselves and make the shay a fortress. Looking forward to a cracking afternoons rugby league

This will be a tough game that both sides feel will take the spoils. Last year was a toughie aswell with jonno scoring 2 individual tries to win us the match thought we might have put him in there for speed but hes left out again dont know what RM is playing at with him should be in the starting line-up every week. Lets hope we get through this 1 2 points a must

I totally agree. Perhaps someone who is going to the meeting with RM could ask him.

Is he definately left out ? isn't the 19 man squad trimmed on matchday ?

WHO LET THE DOGS OUT

the squad are told on a Thursday night at training who is playing and who is not. I know some of the players parents they have let me know its an unchanged team with robbo and jonno missing out. Personally i think we need jonno over the whitewash he was our most productive player the latter part of last season he can lift us when needed just hope he does not lose faith UTFAX

Giving them far too much credit. If we are on song we will clobber 'em.
