Am I missing something? Sky’s Super League table have us and Wigan on one point apiece for the draw. BBC have not updated their league table and the result of our game against Wigan has disappeared.

Were still only one win from fourteen and need to now not think we can take our foot off the gas which is a typical FC trait. Winning against Hudds now will be massive - if we can get Green and Bowden back and they prove effective then maybe the season my not be lost but its a lot of ifs
I agree about backing it up next week , lose at the bottom club and today is pointless and still in the same position before today . Win next week and it could do wonders for our confidence and hopefully kick on . But sounded like a great performance today , and not one I thought we had in us .

It is only one win, but the way some were going on we were in for a hiding. We give our selves a chance by staying in the game as contest.
Cut out the lapses of concentration before half time and full time and we will hold our own.

A great win and one that I admit I didn’t see us getting. Thought Westy was outstanding and made Wigan second guess in defence which is something we rarely make the opposition do. Think Ellis made a huge difference just by his leadership on & off the pitch. He is a true leader and seriously lack that in the team. So many performances all round as they stuck together and dug in. Still some daft stuff and Jake needs to curb his mouth but still a massive boost to get 2pts. Now the work continues as failing to capitalise on today’s performance and result but slipping up against Huddersfield will put us back to square one. We always seem to the team that teams get their first win against when they are in winless runs. Hats off to all concerned for getting a result today. Still think we are a long way off where we should be but as long as we build and move forward from this point then that’s all we can ask for.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

Its a major concern the number of tries we let in just before half time and full time. It has to be a lack of concentration. Its the same when we score and the opposition use a short kick off.We seem to switch off and they regain possession. We make it so difficult for ourselves.We pin Wigan down in their 20 then give away a penalty on the second or third tackle and as a result of the leg up field they score. Connor mouths off to the referee.Free kick leg up field and they score. last 2 minutes scrum on their 10 and they go 90 meters and score. Massive effort from the team,you cant fault that but we have to learn because it happens too often to be a one off.

Monday morning early commute for me after some cold beers in the heat last night GREAT to see the win ! Thank goodness for Hardaker missing and the boys seeing it through Hopefully that’s a catalyst I feared the worst and Ellis made such a difference both on and off the pitch This group of players are Top 4
