Well quite glad the worky game was off give us the chance of no injuries ready for a big test against Fev.

Cant see past a fev win but who knows with it been a cup game anything is possible. Could do with oli roberts but cant see it been possible this week.

will go for 26-12 win by fev in this one due to recent performances

Reminds me a bit of the games against them last year where we are down to the bare bones except this time its so early in the season. I expect us to put up a valiant fight, the mud should help in that respect but ultimatley we will be out muscled and outclassed. The worry is that this fixture takes so much out of us that when we go back over there we get a hiding.

I see the football club have a fixture scheduled the previous day. Think I'll nip over to their forum and suggest that they should cancel that game to try and help the pitch recover as they're a fifth-tier club and should show a bit of deference to second-tier Fax. I'm sure they're a sympathetic bunch and will understand*

You will have to use smaller words over there if you are looking to fit in.

Their a touchy lot. Its weird most of my Town supporting mates are sound and I love watching Town when I get the chance but they don't half love a good yarn on that forum.

We will have to go up a few gears to have a chance in this one. The problem with that is i do not think we have that in us. Fev have been playing at a different level to the rest so far and it is up to us and other clubs with aspirations to try and catch them up witch is easier said then done. I don't like saying this but i can only see a fev win in this one by probably a few scores but i hope i am wrong.

Re: Rovers : Mon Feb 21, 2022 4:47 pm  

I can see Fax edging the cup match by the odd score but getting tonked at POR the week after. I don't think yesterday's postponement will have done us any harm. We'll see what happens. Rat & Ratchet shuddersfield. White Rat 4.0%, Mmm!
