What a masterclass by Sneyd. When his team play to Radders gameplan we’re unbeatable sometimes. Keep it away from the middles and go wide. When Kasiano plonked the ball down and that diving, part time referee, Tomkins slotted the conversion over, every FC head was in it’s hands. Up steps Sneyd with seconds to go and agony to ecstasy. You had to be there. My lucky Jack Harrison shirt did it’s job again. Firmly back in the “Radders is the Dadders” camp and that game goes a long way to erase the Wire debacle. Hope away form can be emulated from Friday. Sore head this morning in Sunny Spain.

Get plenty of water down you Armavinit, not from the tap though
Great result for a team, with two debutants, another who has played one game, and Taylor Westy and Shaul missing amongst others, “Valiant” was the word Baz used on Sky, and that’s exactly what it was.

Absolute class that, was totally speechless. Sneyd always delivers when it matters no doubting. Think though he wants to go home and will do, which will be a massive loss for us. Hope I am wrong. I also love seeing academy players coming in and doing well, think Brown and Wynne looked good. Wynne could be something special IMO. Brown time will tell obviously. All in all, 12 points and happy days. Wonder if some of the rovers fans will have stopped frothing at the mouth come friday.

Just about recovered, outstanding effort from the players, thought we were the best side for the majority of the game, just run out of steam the last 10 minutes and there big forwards, particularly Kasino (Would love him in a Hull shirt) broke us up the middle.
Some great individual performances, Griffin looks good at centre or the back row. Thought Kelly had his best game of the season and Carlos and Farimino made so much ground for us Connor is so important to us and Sneyd does what he does (Please get that contract sigbed)
Special mention to Brown and Wynne, both look exceptional players and look like established SL player, I can't remember a more impressive debut than Browns.
Only negatives are still penalties, particularly on the 4th/5th, I know they milked it (As we did the 2nd half) but we need to be smarter.
Was 50/50 about keeping Manu, but IMO looks too slow in defence at times, so I'd looked to replace him

Said the same myself. He appeared to be defending out wide and was getting stepped far too often. We need to keep him in the middle more for the rest of the season then send him off with our thanks.

"In fact, the days of us signing any players from across the river are over. Our fans are loyal, passionate and only interested in one club. Taking players from our nearest rivals doesn't fit in with that brief."
Great performance with a patched up side For me Ellis a true legend stood out What an inspiration he is to the young guns for his resolve and leadership He rattled a few ribs didnt he. If these kids listen and watch as Cookey and Horney did when J Smith was here they will have a head start Tomkins stepped him in last minutes and i am sure he had a struggle just to stay upright We reckon he wont get up till midweek GREAT STUFF

And are you sticking by Radford being sacked by Easter to be replaced by an Australian coach, that apparently, you are going to magic up?
Yes i was Sneyd had been poor and like Kelly yesterday needed a kick up the backside.Griffin is not a quality centre.has too many limitations,but i will keep repeating that he will make a very good second row demonstrated yesterday, if given a run.Keep interchanging him with Mini would be my way to go and that allows Connor to play right centre then Tuimavave can move back to left centre where he is more comfortable. had results at Salford and Catalan not gone our way then Pearson would have had to act. Now on the fence as i cant criticise anything about yesterday apart from when we lose our heads and keep giving away needless penalties.

Keep on the fence for your own good. It prevents you looking a total p!lock!

Without wanting to be cynical (it's just not in my nature), you've been pretty relentless in picking holes in everything Radford has done during your 5 year tenure on here. Deviating from this approach after so long following a couple of wins v Salford and Catalans is quite the volte-face.

Looked the part leading Old Faithful with gusto in the changing rooms after the game as well.
