near comeback
got bonus though

now strangely stretched lead at top of table...

the 1st bonus point of the season me thinkas

You useless bunch of yorkshire crap

You trying to relegate us

will have to pull it round next week

Still not happy and we certainly did not deserve to win after putting in such a poor 1st half performance. Well done Gateshead and Fax need a massive look as a team and as individuals as there was no excuse to lose that game. The only good thing is we got a Bonus Point whilst Barrow have not after losing by 30 points. Great League however as anybody can beat anybody-well except Doncaster. Toulouse, Barrow and Fax all lose this weekend- very good odds if you put a bet on for that!

Always knew the bonus point was a worthy introduction!!

Well done Rhino and the boys at Batley....if only we had taken full advantage.

Clearly the first half was unsatisfactory...I just hope this second half showing bodes well for Friday.

A bonus piont is better than nothing but we should never of been 32-0 down at half time. The players really need to buck their ideas up if we are gonna achieve anything from this season!

Ridiculous isnt it? Sooner they do away with it the better.

did not see what team was
know black not playing but who else.?

Super, Smashing, Great.

back out into the sun and another pint of mythos to mildly celebrate..

one point is better than nothing.. but what a 1st half! Hopefully Matt laid into the players & at the end they are suitabley angered by their performance!

To quote Mr Starbug - "I'll be hppy with a bonus point"



Bad day at the office it would seem today. Nevermind - onwards and upwards - Leigh next week

All the posters who have POO-POO'D the "Bonus Point" should now hang their head in shame.

That's me.

If we dont get anything off you lot next week and the geordies beat Fev we are in the bottom 2

Another stupid example of the bonus point system, seems like Calland's half time team talk worked but what the chuff have they been doing this week to have a first half like that?

Gateshead aren't dummies and looked one of the best attacking teams at The Shay this season. No doubt we're going through a "sticky patch" at the mo but better now than in September. We'll bounce back, oh yes

You're not wrong !

Absolute joke...we play like that and get a bonus point. If we want to be seriously challenging for the league come judgement day this has gotta stop...talk about chokers...really disappointed Fax.

Well I am very disappointed - I hate jumping on the anti ref bandwagon but for god sake why could he not see the Gateshead players lieing on! They took an ages to do anything.

In regards to us - why did we only play Sayeed and Frank as props, we did the damage when both were on the pitch at the same time. Miles had a bad day at the office too. Bob was no where to be seen. Rob was so bloody lazy IMHO.

Gleeson tried his off but stupid decisions still happened. Bowman was lost and unsupported with Larder making little yards. They knew all the moves that used Shad.

Oh well roll on Friday.

Gateshead and Batley have brought in experienced coaches,Gateshead have also unlimited help off theR.F.L. with the amount of foreign players they have.No worries nice win against Leigh next week on the cards.

Maybe we need also to bring in an experienced coach!

the lads must have been saying to themselves exactly that at half time thinking they must do all they can for poor leigh and nearly did it
