Need I say more?

I thought that we were onto a hiding when they scored after 29 seconds though.

Oh ye of little faith.

Excellent result ..... although I didn't go, likewise thought we were onto a hiding, so yes, I was losing faith but we most certainly haven't played well of late, good result today though, keep it up!

Rochdale next then Halifax

One of the best displays of the season I thought. Enjoyed the day.

Awful place to watch Rugby League though the worst ground in the league, thought they had a cheak to charge 16 quid in.

Great result for the lads ..massive shame that the Cougar Fans had to watch the game over two dog tracks ..might as well been playing at Cougar Park but everyone watching was forced to watch from Maccy D's..

Not disrespect to the Eagles fans but seriously game day atmosphere was zilch .. we had Stewards still thinking they were doing the Weds/ Utd derby rather than 400 folk watching an RL Game with their over zealous handling of the game , similar 4.40 a pint in ground ..I paid less at Wembley last year at the CC Cup Final ..having a massive giraffe ..

Folk want to go and enjoy the game ...maybe the Eagles management need to llok at that first...

Another thing I didnt get, what if you can not stand and there is no seats at the ground what you meant to do?

I'm another one that couldn't get to Sheffield today - wish I could have with that result! Probably the Cougars' best result of the season so far. After seeing Sheffield turn us over at Cougar Park I was very impressed with them and at 2.00pm I'd have been happy with a bonus point. I didn't really think we could get the three but luckily I was proved very wrong; it must have been some performance by the lads. Great stuff after the disappointment of the way it ended last week against the Dogs.

I've never been to the Owlerton Stadium so I've had to check it out on Google Images. Doesn't look the best but I do feel sorry for clubs like Sheffield who have to move around like nomads from one season to the next, looking for somewhere to play. I'm sure they would love to have a permanent home, specially built for Rugby League. Hopefully they will achieve that aim some time soon.

tBH Iain , could have lived with the stadium as was but it had the aura of' we want your brass but don't want you' from entering the car park to leaving after the game , crap views I can deal with sheer profit-ering and a poop attitude is another ...

Oh n the cheeky gits not content on getting bar takings from 30 plus folk charged the supporters bus a tenner to park ...disgrace...don't know any other ground that does that :SHOOT:

One of the best performances I have seen of late. Handforth and Jones have an increasing understanding and influence at half back, the forwards wrapped up their opposite numbers to prevent the offloads that Sheffield thrive on and our backs kept their backs in check. Richie Barnett caught everything they had to throw at him, and made great meters in attack. One of the most determined tries I have ever seen when James Craven fought his way through at least four tackles and numerous bodies to score a try under the posts. Sweet!

After their first quick try we seemed to grow in confidence and they seemed shocked that we didn't lay down and die. Great day but the whole ground is one big rip off - poop views, dear beer and £16 to get in!!!

The players made a great gesture by inviting the fans back to a pub on the way home where, as you can imagine, there were smiles all round. Keighley fan "Bomber" regaled us all with tales of derringer-do and great drunkenness and had us all in stitches.

One of the best days out I can remember in a long time!

Agree with all above re ground. Great display by the boys. Went hoping for bonus point so what a result. All played well but like Dreamer thought Cravens try was exceptional-a true champagne moment.And Richie just gets better and better. Must give Bomber a mention. Kept us all amused on coach and in pubs. Best day out for a long time. Thanks Cougars. :D
