Ryan King and Guy Graham, Haven's 2 best forwards, will be missing on Sunday so if Fax cannot come away with a win when a win is an absolute must then we don't deserve to finish in the top 6.
Hopefully Keyes will have brushed off the cobwebs, so I'm going for a 3 to 4 score win.

Teams are willing to give up field position from a drop out to try and have a contested restart and knowing that even if they don't get the ball back your goal line is the easiest place to defend on the pitch other than inside the opponents 10m. The question at our level is if there are the skill levels to support it.
Back on topic I reckon a loss to Haven, a win against Toulouse followed by a loss to Keighley. Its now very much win all 4 and we will make the playoffs, win 3 and its very unlikely and then any less and its the worst finish since Marshall left and the 2nd worst finish since after maybe the 2004 season.

Yes hopefully.King out through gentleman's agreement ? a non-binding issue that i'm not a fan of..i'd rather he played as we're well versed in his weakness's..

I think King is injured (he missed Haven's match at London). Having said that, I'm assuming he's not "allowed" to play as per his transfer agreement (he didn't play at the Shay) but is such an agreement binding especially when Haven will be so desperate.
I remember a similar situation a few years ago when Fax included Sam Barlow against Sheffield which was a bit naughty, and is probably why Mark "Moaning" Aston has hated Fax ever since.

Yes I was alluding to that..once they've left they've left it's almost a restraint of trade..

A lot of posters on here are more interested in being’ right ‘ than the club being successful. Gfb will be celebrating our failure like the women who have divorce parties .

I'm happy he isn't playing as he would no doubt have had a stormer. But how would we know his weaknesses? He hardly got a game for us.

Why would he? GFB is a staunch, long time suporter of the club.
