No we will not. If we lose, Leeds win, and Hull win we will be down to 4th.

Never sure how people interpret aggression but the don't take a backward step.
Yes we have the backbone we just do it differently than other teams.
We can strike from all over the park oh am so loving this season
Well tonight's performance should put that question to bed.
Sorry for quoting myself.
But we sounded magnificent tonight

Spot on.

I've been questioning our grit and mongrel recently but what we showed at Fartown was more like it and needs to be evident right through to the business end of the season.

Matt Cook typifies it. I thought he had a magnificent game and is an unsung hero.

Doesn't get the credit he deserves at times for me, a real grafter

Matt Cook for me is a brilliant player with a lot of punch for his size and its only a shame he is not that bit bigger in size like the size of Springer as he would be devastating. Still can't have it all but Cook has a lot of heart and determination with his drives which you sometimes can't buy and he is a grafter. Anyway, What's happened to Larne Patrick as I can't seem to see any news on him which I may have missed ? Anyone know ??

Larne Patrick stated on Twitter he hoped to be back in June. Would be nice to have him available to give our pack a bit of freshness after the second "easter period" at the end of the month.
