RogerT Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Okay, okay I get it, we are all p**d off after the last two matches but, come on one was totally expected and last week we should have been there or thereabouts. Lets get behind the lads and the Pink thingy that's going on although that's seems to have gone quiet as well. Lets get closer to the Giants, I can't see us winning it, but I'm up for a surprise. Now that was good pleasant news about the finances and that was for 2015. Lets get the spirit back I want a good natter up in the bar before and after the match. Cheers Roger.

Phil Loxton Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Huddersfield are a good side but Fevs completion rate was very poor. I think Batley will be a lot closer to them especially at Mount Pleasant. I don't know what happened at London it had everyone scratching their heads but I think you might go well this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

9' oller Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Before the drubbings (only one of them should of been allowed) we targeted the giants tie as a possible win. Now it will be good to get a home fixture after being on the road for three games and im certain the lads will want to dig in and right the wrongs from the capital 'Shaw cross juniors, Birkenshaw, Mirfield, Heckmondwike Panthers, Stainland Stags and then the Heavy woolen donkeys...

doggystyle Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Thanks Roger. Didn't want him to be rested because the Giants feel they have the win in the bag. Looking forward to this clash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piggy's mate Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 It will be good to get a game at the mount and I hope it's a good crowd and a decent game. I expect a reaction from the players but I can't see anything other than a narrow loss Touch Rugby W(h)inger and part-time Super Hero (Thursday mornings by appointment) BATLEY BULLDOGS RLFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keep The Faith Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Jermaine hasn't played since last regular round Ormsby on wing with aaron murphy Tom Simmonds will come back in by all accounts http://tombatley.wordpress.com/ Give it a read..

RogerT Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 Okay so we are at home at last and it looks like rubbish weather to spoil the gate, so the result of finishing 3rd in regular season is we get shafted, the only team to bring a decent crowd is Featherstone, really pe*d off, still I'll be there. Cheers Roger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Roger. It could be worse though Roger. We could be playing Sheffield et al before a crowd of 600! The crowd on Sunday is likely to be more than we would have even if we had played Dewsbury!

RogerT Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 Yes but look at the team who finished 4th I believe they got 6000 v Leeds and this Sunday Leigh can't get enough coaches to get their fans there, in in 2 matches they will get way over we will get for all 3. Anyway off my soapbox now, I WILL BE THERE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PonteBlue Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Huddersfield are a good side but Fevs completion rate was very poor. I think Batley will be a lot closer to them especially at Mount Pleasant. I don't know what happened at London it had everyone scratching their heads but I think you might go well this week Phil's right. We massively contributed to our own downfall. Leeds were good, we made Huddersfield look good. If we don't sort out completion rate we will get another tonking this week. The weather forecast for tomorrow not too bad...........keep it close first 40 and who knows. Roger, you are right. We have been lucky with how sides finished giving us good home draws. However, with Salford slipping up Huddersfield will be targeting next couple of games to help secure their place in top flight, so, will be bringing a few over. When fixtures were released you highlighted this as one SL side you could give a run for their money - nowt has changed. FEV FAN 1964 - present.

bromleybulldog Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Still think it might be a decent crowd. Three on their way up the A1 from Bromley this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerT Posted August 21, 2016 Author Share Posted August 21, 2016 Welcome Bromley, please please bring some decent weather with you. Come into the Ron Earnshaw Lounge and have a shandy on me or if your not driving then a pint. Now that's what you call a supporter, and we can't even get locals to turn out. Cheers Roger.

Piggy's mate Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Shame we got blown away in the first half as the second half was entertaining. Decent crowd and a good effort from the club to entertain with the youngsters and bouncy castles etc. I could get used to this Touch Rugby W(h)inger and part-time Super Hero (Thursday mornings by appointment) BATLEY BULLDOGS RLFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerT Posted August 21, 2016 Author Share Posted August 21, 2016 Got to agree PM that first half we just could not get the ball for any length of time. Wow the second half unbelievable. Brilliant entertainment as well and even Mr Rimmer going on the ducking stool or so Kevin said. Nice to meet Bromley Bulldog and he now knows another three of the Bulldog forum, well two and a well known guest from across the valley. Cheers Roger.

9' oller Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Im a very proud daddy as my lad was a mascot and held james brown hand. The mount looked good and fartown came in good numbers (far more than silk cut games) First half was painful at times but im glad we pulled a few scores back 'Shaw cross juniors, Birkenshaw, Mirfield, Heckmondwike Panthers, Stainland Stags and then the Heavy woolen donkeys...

Keep The Faith Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 First half carried on from last week Second half we turned up finally after 120 minutes of rugby Why take the 2 after putting no pressure on the giants defence we did it in the second half and they cracked.. http://tombatley.wordpress.com/ Give it a read..
