R0ughyeds Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Well then... gutted, really could have pulled off a result tonight. The lads did us proud, especially our defence which was absolutely amazing throughout the game. Stand out performances from Neal and Langers. The standard of refereeing was questionable yet again... Halifax's second try was a forward pass, penalty when Oldham player on the floor and gets ball intentionally thrown at him, Neal's yellow card for high tackle and the touch judge giving a drop out when Clay was clearly pushed, were a few of the officials' lowlights.

howardm1978 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Yeah well proud of the effort shown tonight. Fax outplayed for most of the game I thought. Some tough kicks for LB to kick though. Thought we deserved to win.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half man half grapefruit Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Halifax there for the taking tonight.Strange team selection - no Lippy,George,Grimmer or Hewitt. Scott Turner and Adam Clay immense but Tuoyo had a bit of a nightmare unfortunately. Between the 20 metre lines there are few better teams in this league,and,in general our defence is pretty sound on our own line.Still a problem creating clear-cut openings in the opposition's 20,relying too much on our short-kicking game .Can anyone explain why Gaz Owen was picked at scrum-half when he's not merited a place anywhere on current form? Langers,Wardy and Mikey Wood were the pick of the forwards,who,on the whole,held more than their own. Again,effort could not be faulted,but another 2-point defeat. With a back-line of Scott,Adam,George,Grimmer or Gilly and Lippy,I'm sure we would have had more of a cutting edge. Missed kicks cost us in the end,but,loathe as I am to criticise Nobby,team selection I feel that he missed a trick tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jroyales Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 There is no doubt in my mind the officials lost us the game. It will be interesting to know what the penalty count was and more so what Naylor will say tomorrow. The effort the lads put in tonight was unbelievable. They didn't deserve to lose. Sadly, not taking an easy two points when we got a penalty cost us a point and not having an old head in the side to calm things down and so take the right option when near to the line. Just trying to smash our way over isn't going to work because the opposition know what we are going to do. Nevertheless, I can't see us having a problem staying up with performances like that one - well done the Yeds and the Yed Army!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefaxfanman Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 your first try was a forward pass so he wasn't exactly in control of that game at all imo. After a while he stopped even signalling what the penalties were for. Anyway.. You yeds should be very proud of your lads, thought best team lost tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roughyed34 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Agree the ref was very poor , Fax player deliberately throws the ball at a grounded Oldham player and gets the penalty(thought that was supposed to have been stamped out)and should have been a penalty to Oldham.Questionable decisions all game for both sides summed up by the Fax kick into touch near the end,bounced over the sideline,no Oldham player anywhere near and he signals Fax ball before changing his mind haha. Clueless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moorside roughyed Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Thought the ref won the game for them.I thought we were great and the boys should be proud of themselves as we are of them.Its hard enough in this division without playing against officials as well.

BJC44 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 We should have won great effort by all the lads. 4 pts lost this season by missing kicks that's not the refs fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 Took my two youngest daughters last night, and they enjoyed the match. First game for them since boundary park days. Due to factors beyond my control . They will be coming again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yed17 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Fantastic effort from the lads. Presuming some of the changes were down to knocks and rotation.These lads put in so much effort for each other, the coach and the fans. Great to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Naylor Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Lippy was a late withdrawal last night. He was due to play but had to pull out due to injury. Chewy has a niggling groin problem and was only ever going to play one game out of the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jroyales Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 In tonight's Chron. it said the penalty count was 7 each. I am sure it was nearer 15 to fax plus the blunders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 The freakest Halifax try in the first half which resulted in 6 points was the difference To say I'm gutted nearly 24 hours on is an understatement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roughyed34 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Thanks Dave,spot on that. The linesman's decision that Adam touched the ball ,giving them the drop out which they subsequently scored from is disgraceful. The lino is on the spot and can't see the ball clearly hit the touchline before Adam touched it? Absolute joke. Not the only reason we lost but a big factor in it. Decisions like that mar the game for me. On the plus side another solid performance from the lads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ultimate roughyed Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Agreed Gaz, in fact the Halifax winger shoved him so we should actually have had a penalty! The yellow card for Adam Neal was very harsh as well. I reckon he wouldn't have been given one if the Halifax players hadn't kicked off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
