Yes, a good little fight back there......well done the lads.
It could so easily have turned into a rout. Given the difference in class, given the injuries, given the distance travelled etc etc....it's understandable that we got well beat.
I am dead against this competition though.....it kills interest, particularly in our sort of position.... and come the real start of the season the crowds will be low as a result.
Scrap it!!!!!

I wouldnt scrap it, just make it straight knockout, maybe best over 2 legs even to the final.

I think we only got into there half 2 or 3 times in the first half.Second half the lads did very well and never stopped battling.Grant Edwards superb today as well.Hope Dannys hand gets better soon! Could have had more points as well, when the ref wouldnt allow us the advantage a couple of times in the game , one of them right on the final siren.

Also the Haven fans just walked off when the siren went! None of them clapped their team off. Very strange.

Well done to the 13 fans who made the trip today as well!!

So we could have lost because we took an unlucky number of fans=13?
One of them should have been shot.....just in case.
