Agreed - congrats to Fev, completely outplayed us and I said on the other thread, our poor performance should not detract from Fev's outstanding one.

Good luck to all at Fev in the next round

shows how rubbish Wakey must be too as that team took them apart on Good Friday
Now then, it's a race between Sandie....and Fairburn....and the little man is in........yeees he's in.

I, just like those Castleford supporters felt that the ball should have gone to David Plange but he put the bit betwen his teeth...and it was a try

Kevin Ward - best player I have ever seen

The real Mick Gledhill is what you see on here, a Bradford fan ........, but deep down knows that Bradford are just not good enough to challenge the likes of Leeds & St Helens.

Yesssssssssssssssssss!

I didn't think it was possible after last week, but that's brilliant.

Incredibly proud of all 17 players.

Well done Fev. Let's hope there's another shock on the cards (although a smaller one ) at the Stobart Stadium tonight.

So you should be - an absolute credit to themselves, their league and the people of Fev

Well done Fev, brilliant performance and slayed the Challenge Cup doom-mongers.

Trojan won't know where to look, according to him shocks don't happen anymore.
Astute analysis from a Wigan fan:

Rumour going around Headingley that Wire will have to play the second half with 12 men.

It seems that they forgot to bring the half time oranges, and Solomona ate Chris Bridge instead.

Don't know why he was hungry, as he looked as though he had eaten the whole youth team before the game started.

Great game, congrats to Fev. Great commentary by Rod Studd (sp?) too, much better than Bill Arthur with the Hull derby.

I hope people don't go overboard with the "Fev for SL" stuff on the back of this. That would be the wrong point of emphasis. The great news is that this shows that the Challenge Cup still has a huge future, even in a franchised environment, and the lower league sides deserve the chance to compete with the big boys. But asking teams like Fev to punch above their weight on a weekly basis isn't the logical conclusion.

What was the crowd?

No we would't do that. A club like ours as far too much class.

You can all try and knock us flat cappers but you will never keep us down.

To all of those anti small clubs members enjoy you evening posting your usual garbage. I am going to the clubhouse to celebrate.

Probably 2000 down on what I expected but who cares? The place was bouncing and Fev got the job done. What defence!

a good crowd considering the crowd there looks to be at Widnes

Really enjoyable game today, for me marred by Chase's high shot on Ropati

Well played to Fev, i wouldnt have given MOM to Hardman for me Briggs was good but Dickens was emence

4,100 isn't a good crowd for Fev v Cas.

The Widnes crowd isn't good.

The Leeds v Wakey crowd wasn't good.

As long as clubs blindly charge over the odds for these early rounds then this will continue.
