Just to be controversial thought it might be an idea to start a thread about what is actually our next game, particularly as the Barrow thread seems to be bugger all about anything to do with that game. If you'd asked me a week ago about our prospects at Sheffield, I'd have felt happy to keep the score respectable- after Sunday though suddenly its fantastic to feel a bit of optimism about our prospects.

Now I am well confused, I actually thought Barrow was the next game. Maybe faxcar should go in to PR or advertising as it had me convinced. :lol:

Totally agree IF, I don't think there is any reason not to go over there feeling optimistic. It's always a tough place to go for any team, they get an extra days rest on us but they had a tough game too against the champions. It will be hard to get to the levels we did on Sunday but if we can then we will be a match for any team in the division on our day.

Next HOME game WITH POSTER on display, surely we don’t have to supply them for away games as well. :lol:

We’ve a much better chance of coming away from Sheffield with something than last year that’s for sure but I’ve been burned too many times before to be anything more than cautiously optimistic at this early stage of the season.

We most certainly do owe them one from last season. I would go as far to say that they bullied us in the 2 games so fire up boys sunday is revenge time.

Konrad Hurrell.....now that's a proper DR..!

Hurrell in for Graham who’s injured.

On paper Hurrell a fantastic replacement, pleased that having lost a centre, we actually get a centre as a replacement, rather than someone who plays in a completely different position, disrupting the whole team. My only concern is that the strength of last weeks performance was built on committed defence by every player - Hurrell should doubtless add something to our attack - less convinced about his defence, particularly if understandably he's not to thrilled to be playing for Fax at what is a fairly awful ground in front of probably a few hundred supporters.

Apart from everything else mentioned that looks to have gone up a notch I hope Hansen’s tactical kicking game can be another asset for us.

Hurrell coming in shows how small and fragile our squad is. One player is out due to an injury ( it could also happen through on field injury or ill health) and we have no one to step into that place. 2 or 3 players go out for whatever reason and I think we will be stuffed. Fax win by 12
