i admit our attendance at PO road over the last few years has been poor due to what happened at Wire. However i believe you will see afew stay away fans coming to this one.'"
There's a few I know who havent been to fev for a couple of years making the trip this time.
I've been since the Warrington incident, and I'm pretty sure that game wasn't segregated, I wasn't at the NRC game when it kicked off due to been in Spain at the time, and I missed last years fixture due to my shift pattens,
Hopefully this weekend's game can be remembered for the right reasons, Fev are going to raise their game, as every team would when taking on a team in Halifax's current position. But I think its a fair assessment that all teams in our league raise the bar when they face Fax, Fev, Sheffield, Leigh and maybe Batley.
Fev have a tough task backing up last weeks game at London, playing SL opposition is bound to have an effect on even the best drilled teams, but i'm sure they'll be prepared, this game will be one they've highlighted as wanting to win, especially if they are to gain ground on us in the league table.
I think if Fax play the way we have been, we have a great chance of taking the 3pts away, not bothered if we win by 4 or 40, but I do think we could push on and deny them a bonus point.
I'll stick my neck out and say
Fev 18
Halifax 38
Attendance of over 3000, fev have been drawing good gates lately and this is a "box office" fixture in this league.
