Not the best match, in deed more of a mismatch, Haven never really under threat and didn’t get out of third gear for long periods. Biggest positive was young Bradleywho didn’t look out of place, biggest disappointment was the crowd, should have easily been 1000plus, why was Rimmerthere?

Rimmer was there because if Oldham last today we would have won the shield. And I thought the crowd was great considering we wer only playing wwr and they had 5 fans there it didnt attract the crowd of what a bigger game would have but still positive

Haven never got out of 2nd gear but didnt need to.

I was pleasantly surprised with the attendance based on the poor quality of the opposition and the fact that the league qas neever going to be decided until next week.

Really hope Jessy gets to play next week.

In the sponsors lounge for the first time today and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Won the game and that's all was needed.

I think that a home send off for the champions and another step closer to your first trophy, no matter who you are playing deserves well over a thousand.

 Is it not our second trophy since we won the league in 2005?

Well considering last years attendance for the home game vs WWR was 401 you can’t help but be happy with the attendance today.

We could of broke all club records yesterday if we played our full strong squad. We won at a canter decent crowd 900+ considering it was west Wales 1 to go the big one Saturday see you all there.
