We should get over 2800 v them, top of table clash. Don't think they'll bring over 200 but they will bring more than in NR Cup.

We got well over 3000 against Widnes-the problem is for the Sheffield game they have a tiny fan base and will not bring more than a small hardcore of fans similar to Gateshead and Batley and guess why people feel we will not reach 3000 again.

Widnes have no problem getting over 3,000.

Widnes didn't lose 80-90% of their matches over the course of 2 seasons though


It's going to be tough, but slowly we are attracting people back again. I will freely admit i became disillusioned with rugby league after the relegation (attended every game that year - now that was tough!) and also the Faz years, where Ben Black was probably the only thing worth watching. I had a break from watching Fax, but still looked out for their results and it wasn't until Martin Hall came in that i came back down again. I've been hooked again ever since and i think the main issue is that we need to encourage those people who, like myself became disillusioned with Fax to just try us out again. While we are winning the majority of matches this is also a great time to encourage new support in the younger generation as kids always want to support a winning team!

Back on topic - Fax 42 Sheffield 20

Crowd - 2476

MOM - Shad (Hat-trick)

generally true, but the switch to Friday nights is not having a good effect at all. I think for the home game with Sheffield we got less than 3,000.

Fax 56 Sheffield 18.

You just have too much firepower at the moment for the Eagles.

be a tough one this ,, sheffield gave KR a game last week , others will put up a cricket score bu imo it will be close ,,

FAX 34
SHEFF 22

I just hope that Matt has got the lads working on tightening up the defence again. They started off the season well but for the last 2 or 3 games it has started to slip again.
