I have just looked at the fixtures and tables, and believe that a bonus point would be enough. Only fly in the ointment would be if Workington managed a bonus point against Leigh. (I THINK)

its sheff v hunslet , are you hopin for a draw here

No. The winner will have 8 points and the loser on 5 or 6. We would have 7 and go through in fourth (I THINK)

[9' oller]

if we defend like we did today and get the bounce of the ball once or twice a BP would be achievable v Callands high fliers at the shay.

come 4pm next sunday a trip to morley waste traders with a certain silver cup could be a serious consideration!

Swinton are at Gateshead, and could win by a cricket score. If they do, they could overtake us if we only win a bonus point! if they win by say... 45, and we lose by 12, I belive they will go above us.

Well spotted. You are correct.

[BirstallDog]

never mind the bonus points we have to win to go through and in my opinion that is as it should be. if we do lose we deserve to go out.

Not much difference between the Dogs and Halifaxs in points for and against.Just need to dig deep and go for it.

but Halifax have us and whitehaven to play , we only have fax to play , so there dif could be a lot better

[spanishbob2]

This is more of a "must win" for Batley than Halifax, as they still have Whitehaven to play.

As I said after our last game, this one will be a totally different game, with different team set ups.

I am really looking forward to the enounter. I hope Batley bring a few of their fans along to make the atmosphere good.

Fax flew out to Spain today for a 5 day training camp in Murcia. Suggest you have a whip round and put a lump of brass behind the bar for them.

Thats rich a Fax fan suggesting a whip round.

Never been into S&M myself but whatever floats your boat.

[Keep The Faith]

i don't think we will go through so we must play good and set the bus rolling for next few weeks this sunday and carry it on through the league season!!

There's plenty of reduced fax merchandise on the streets of Halifax too after a tuck shop break in!

Callands bar tab will take some stumping up though!
