Edens was a try

 

No it wasn't. The ref didn't give it.

Well, I have just watched what must rank as one of the worst performances by a Featherstone side in a long time, to be honest they were lucky to get nil!

If they were playing til tomorrow I don’t think they would have scored and the discipline was poor again.

Can’t see Fordy surviving this one.

Don't hold yer breath ---

We cannot even score a try. Going from bad to worse. |Ford must be given the boot and the sooner the better.

First time we’ve been nilled since 2017 apparently. To be honest I’m glad I didn’t waste all that money travelling to Toulouse and went to my caravan instead 

[Fevrover]

When was the last time we were nilled ? Only one i recall was Whitehaven at home 29-0 a few years ago. Iam sure MLPand PH will enlighten us.

[Gooleboy]

A shocking performance. No excuses.

Challenge Cup at Leeds under Sharp is the last one I can remember.

    May 26th at 20-19pm i posted we have to play Toulouse twice Sheffield twice Wakey Widnes Bradford Halifax and Swinton AWAY how many of those do you think we will win.We may not win any,and i missed out York away.Rob Lambert said "thats just ridiculous"and my mate Fev Rover and POR agreed with him.I am sorry to say its not looking so ridiculous now.I didn't see the game but expected us to get beat by 24 on the handicap.Just stay up this season get rid of Ford and Hardman and next season no Loan or dual reg players.Bring in players under 27/8 who can put a bit of pride back into the shirt.And bar injuries keep a settled team.

Almost certain we'll still be 6th.  

[Maureen T-k]

Fev Rover running tonight at 11.13 at Woodbine, I’ve just had a bet!! 

[haskey]

Only 4 points  from the relegation spots. Only Dewsbury appear to have been cut adrift, A BIG shake up is needed AND SOON.

Yeah some teams can get to 12 points but our points difference is better - for now. All teams beneath us are on - points difference, we are on +47 ,owt could happen way we are playing.

I think you know thats taken out of context.  It was ridiculous because you were highlighting the difficult fixtures we still had to play - even before halfway through the season - and my point was that every team still had to play one another i.e. our fixtures were no different to anyone else's

That said I have to admit that your prediction as to where we would finish is looking a little ominous.  We literally could not have done any worse in the last 5 games and I can't believe anyone could have seen us losing them all. Yet we are still 6th so I'm still confident.  I wonder what odds you would have got on those back to back defeats as an accumulator ?

   We could or should have won 3 of those games.12 points up against Swinton who were playing uphill.16 -0 up against York early doors and we looked set to hold on at Sheffield until Eden made a mess of that up and under.We may win some of those games i said we could lose i was just trying to put over how much better we had to do as some supporters thought we would make the top 3 or 4.

I'm fairly sure the post referred to where we'd be tomorrow and I think its highly unlikely we can be overtaken ?

As far as the end of the season goes yeah actually I do think 6th or above - of course - I mean look at who is below us.  I am confident that Ford can't cling on much longer then the season can start...........

Last time we were nilled was in the Middle Eights by Warrington in September 2017

Last time we were nilled in the Championship was the summer bash May 2016 v Halifax.
