Just caught a couple of clips on Twitter and it is a bit mad how dark it is.

 

Brings back memories of the old BBC2 Floodlit Trophy !

If Dec Patten is the answer God knows what the question is.  Laziest player in RL.

Sounds like he's let us down with goalkicking as well

[Segovia Carpet]

Bulls deserve better. 12 - 20 w 10 to go.  Gt effort from them.

In fairness, he probably couldn't see the posts.

If Featherstone do eventually get promoted they are definitely going to have to spend a lot of money on floodlights as nearly all SL games are evening games.

[The Phantom Horseman]

Fev are well aware of the issues regarding their floodlights and have made statements about them at different times. They probably play about twice a year at the moment and are well aware they will need to upgrade them if they got into SL.

That seems a fair way off mind you, no more than a workmanlike performance tonight and really lacking in composure in the second half. Fair play to Bradford who battled throughout and never made it easy but Sean Long will know Fev need to be better than this.

Give Bulls full credit played well.

[georgeb1]

Loads of errors but decent game for the neutral, best contest was who had the worst fullback 

[The Daddy]

Hmmm, after watching that I put Toulouse favourites to win the Championship 

[The Phantom Horseman]

Death, taxes and Dunning whining about the officiating

[Segovia Carpet]

Unimpressed with Fev and if they go up then they should ask the Glazers to help.   Monumental changes needed for their next chapter.

The Bulls are definitely improving and will pose a threat come play off time.

[Vyvyan]

The Bulls look a lot fitter than they did last year, apart from Patton.  Fev did what they needed to do, it's a log season.

2 poor teams this. 

Wait till we get our injured players back,can't take anything away from Bradford, if they'd have played like that at York they would have won.

Having said that we have Hankinson,Keerhella, Akeins,Hall and Moors out injured. All good players.

If my auntie had balls she’d be my uncle. If we’d have had 2 halfbacks we’d have put 40 on them.

Think all teams that go up will need to improve there squads, that's why Leigh brought in all the S.L. players.

I can't spell his name  

[David Shepherd]

Thought we were fairly ordinary tonight.
 

Northern battled hard but were never in danger of winning. 

Another one ticked off the list 

Flanagan is still a sh1thouse.

Onwards and upwards.

I certainly don’t think that will go down as a classic. From a Fev point of view our ball retention was poor and kick defence was shocking, really thought we missed Aekins today. Thought Bradford battled well and scored from our errors although never really got the feeling that they would split us open. Still a win is a win and we will play better than that.
