Friday night 7.30pm @ Sheffield's only 3rd division football ground - Bramall Lane.

If we play to our potential I've no doubt we'll win. Couple of possible injuries but there are people in the fringes waiting to come in.

Murrell could be huge if fit for Fax, they really missed him a couple of weeks ago. They're licking their wounds after two defeats in two weeks and out of both cups, so they'll be looking to get back on track.

Eagles 32-20 Halifax

Att: 1256 (1100 from Halifax)

Big game, a shame that Murrell is back from his injury caused by carrying his team for 5 months.

Sheffield 24 Fax 16

Attendance 73 (23,000 from Halifax)

Its going to be tough as ever especially as said if Murrell is back, if he is we need to keep him quiet and hopefully agent worrincy produces a bit more magic again!



Eagles 28-12 fax

att: 25,000 including "the gift that keeps on giving"
seriously though 1200

@Gids1980: @SheffieldEagles Misi Taulapapa and Ben Gledhill are both in the 17 to face Halifax. Colton Roche is injured.
Eddie Battye will start.

Boost!

yep looks like a decent strong side we will put out
cmon eagles!

Think you may win but crowd under a 1000.

Get the feeling half of you lot would rather have a poor crowd to whinge about than the three points. Incredibly sad.

I 'd be happy watching on my own as long as we win!

That's all Fax fans care about, they should worry more about their own crowds which hardly set the world alight for such a 'big' club.

I just presumed they kept missing a 0 off the end of their attendances.

I don't know why they are bothering to come they won't watch the game to busy counting how manys there

Well Charlie will go for a score of Seagulls 24 v Fax 16 , ive already been accused of brownosing you seagulls fans , so im not fussed , its 15 minutes to kick-off time , Big Karl will be getting ready to kick the water bottle again so watch out .

well well well that was superb tonight i was worried after fax went 6-0 up and looked the better side, after that well we fully woke up and out classed them
great time to be an eagles fan onwards and upwards

Best crack of the night: going back to my seat at the end of half time, one 'Fax supporter turned to his mate and said "I've just seen Rob Worrincey in the bar with a couple of pints. He dropped them!"



Good win for the Eagles tonight after a poor start. 2nd place now and closing in rap
idly on top spot.

Has anyone been on the fax forum to see if halifaxjohn is ok?

Haven't been on yet but I'm guessing the crowd was fiddled?

As sure as the sun will rise. They're obsessed.

looked like the 100 was from them massive club they are

Shocking turnout from them really. But who cares. On the pitch that matters. And we won. Again.

Spot on others can worry about attendances we were fantastic tonight

A win on Wednesday will put us top.

Now Now Griff , dont get on a Horse to big

, everyone can be shot down , just ask the Fax fans , though CHARLIE knew and predicted the result , this League is wide open a great advert for the game , Congrats to you Seasgulls , enjoy your time in the Limelight .

lets just hope last night hasn't taken too much out of the lads Hunslet were no push overs thursday night

Hopefully they won't have so many Leeds players.

Wasn't the game delayed due to match traffic? Unfortunate the tens of thousand never showed up from Fax, must have been gridlocked on the m1
