I can see a PATTON forming in this game. I am going to take a WYNNE all DAY long. Especially if we have a GALE blowing down the field. Try scorers Patton, Wynne, Day and Gale. Five goals from Reynolds with a penalty with twenty seconds to go. 24-26. 

I was wrong with my prediction last week but I have been known never to be right😂😂😂

A long time back (before the Bradford away game) I asked on here (more than once I think) if anyone knew the last time that a result determined by a late penalty went in our favour and nobody could remember. 

I believe that it was many years ago but I may be wrong.  We've definitely had 2 go against us this season alone. You might put this down to a coincidence / refs not liking us or poor discipline (whichever way you want to look at it).  Personally I think hell will freeze over before we get 'awarded' another win this weekend.  I admire your optimism though. 

Anyway we might Springer surprise and thump them.

....and what a noise from a certain someone calling out the referee for our late winner at Odsal in the league. My prediction though is just to antagonise in case he is scrolling😊

Patton for me instead of Eden, who has been a waste of space.with the rest unchanged.

Personally I hope patton does play when at Swinton got in his head the fans and the players I imagine it to be closer than yesterdays play off games.

 

both teams it’s which ever team turns up when where good where both good but when where bad where both horrendous hope for a big crowd and a good game of rugby

If Fev lose, please don’t , I fancy our chances at Toulouse,  but if you do lose at the dump known as Odsal will Fordy still be in place next season?

it can’t have gone down well that the team he left beat his current team twice can it?

Fordy was a good servant for the Knights but his coaching became very predictable, this season, After a brief hiatus, has been a breath of fresh air with some good attacking football and a solid defence, on paper Fev have the players to produce the same entertaining stuff if only the coach would let them.

Today is simple

Go to Odslum and win

Don't care if it's by 1 or a 100

No pressure, no expectation 

You have a team capable of victory

Stop that pudding Pele and victory will be yours

Come on Fev 🤞🤞🤞

   Predictable result we have not lived up most supporters expectations.Although i said we would not make the play offs.Only a handful of games have we seen displays  that represent the Featherstone spirit.Please go Ford you have nothing to offer in a new start next season.I am done with my membership but will come to the odd game tf we get a new coach.

Well your purgatory has ended

School report🤔

Didn't excel in any department this year, promising outlook soon diminished into plodding through each lesson, some will blame a bad teacher, next year must do better🤔

The SL playoffs have seen mla more laid back NRL style of Refereeing, but not the Championship.   That was appalling, for thr first 20 minutes in the  second half he gave Bradford a penalty in every single set. And didn't ese off much after that until the 73rd minute when he decided to stop shoving  it up our bottoms.

We need a  complete overhaul ,  starting at the top ie Ford. I see in an earlier post that he has signed a 2 year deal, I cannot understand that Handley has been happy with the garbage that has been serve up since the Toulouse win , starting with the coach.

Unless he goes the crowd will decrease even further, I cannot see where we are going to increase our season ticket holders, in fact we are likely to lose a h--l of a lot more. This season has just finished and I just wonder where we go from here ???

 I did not expect miracles this season but this has been one to forget.

Handley and Ford are good mates I understand. Which kind of explains it. No one can possibly think Ford has done a good job and is the man to take us forward.
