Good win today by the boys. 3rd in the league !

Fax by far the better team . Deserved the win well played WBH. Murrell targeted in defence by oposition again kicking behind him . butler was my mom why do we keep not passing to him 20 yds from opponents line. Thought salty had a very hit and miss game McGrath back for me . Signs Adam is coming back to running fitness in second half. Overall a good performance but reality was that's the worst Batley team performance I can remember for many years.

Tad harsh that mate first half agreed we were poor second half we had a real dig and got close but then we dropped off a bit

With the likes of Brambani Manning Brown Ainscough Rettie and Lillicrop missing I think we did ok

Good luck with yr push for the top four

Always a game of 2 halves at Batley with that slope. If we'd maintained our discipline in the second half (we can moan about the ref, but he gives what he sees) then it would probably have been a more comfortable win. That's one regular annual loss dealt with, the other one that we need to reverse the trend with is Fev at home.



The table looks good today, and a great showing from the Fax fans today as well.

Kings Head, shuddersfield. Ringmaster 3.9%. Up The Fax!

That’s a group of good players to be missing, hopefully you’ll get them back soon and turn some of our nearest opponents over.

Yes accept those names make a big difference . It did feel like Alex Rowe was on his own for the hard yards . But even just put brambani back in and you may have caught up in the second half . Had to chuckle when fax resident old geezer cameraman was escorted from the

Pitch near the end by a head steward for getting over excited at the win. May actually have got overexcited that he was quick enough to press the button and get an action shot picture of a try being scored for the first time since 1990!

How did Tyrer play today when he was given a 1 match penalty notice on Friday or is that not a match ban? Nothing about Hock who was put on report.

I read your posts and think I have watched a different game.

Opposition kicking behind Muzza? That's why you place your winger and fullback as we do. The only time a half back is going to defend a kick is a little chip over the top as happened today and Johnno read it perfectly.



As for Butler you can't do the same move over and over, it does not work like that, the gap is not always there to run in to and by taking other options you ask different questions of the defence allowing those moves you want to see all the time to work.



For Salty ask the pack if he were hit and miss. As much as I think Mcgrath is a decent prospect he would not got through the work that either Heaton and Salty did today. They were both picked ahead of him for that reason.



I thought we played well for about 40 minutes. In the first 25 minutes we were really good and probably did enough to win the game, last 15 of the first half I thought Batley came in to the game as we made a few errors. In the 2nd half batley were on top for quite a bit of it and if you think that is the worst Batley performance you can remember then Im going to have to disagree. I thought they all worked very hard for each other and put in a decent performance considering their injury list.



Just a note on the ref, I thought it was one of the poorer performances we have seen this season as he constantly baffled fans and players with decisions. They say you can't change a ref's mind but this happened on at least 2 occasions today.

Championship are the following week rather than week of the game.

Why didn't Will Sharp play?
