Yeah whilst I appreciate the 2nd half was poor I simply meant that wasn't the only reason we lost, Fev were the better side and had the downhill advantage which we didn't manage to take advantage of in the first half.

Also I agree people should voice there opinions...i voice mine too! Just get a bit tired of the abuse us fans give each other when we all want the same thing!

As for the getting behind our team when we score which someone else mentioned do we though?? Leigh fans sung the whole game last week....i can't remember a game when we got behind oiur team like that? Theres a few that sing every week but even they have been quiet recently. Do we have boring fans that only make noise when the want to moan? We all play our part in winning games!

I am indeed very well known to the club. I'm a fan. Have been since 1984. I am indeed annoyed - i would have liked to have started off this season unbeaten to date.

You mention Man Utd and Alex Ferguson. he joined United in November 1986. In 1988 they finished second in the table. Won nowt. In 1989 they finished 11th and won nowt. In 1990 United's league form nose dived further. Lost 5–1 in an away defeat against Manchester City. Following this and an early season run of six defeats and two draws in eight games, a banner declaring "Three years of excuses and it's still crap. Ta ra Fergie." was displayed at Old Trafford, and many journalists and supporters called for Ferguson to be sacked.

Surely United should have sacked Fergie at that point?



But you're right - we're not United. We are little old Halifax - making our way in difficult times. As paying fans we also have the right to criticise poor performances. All i'm saying is - look at the long game. 2015 is our real target year. We need more money, we need a youth set up and we need bigger attendances. That's the real hurdle here. I still believe we have the right people at board level to ensure that we give it our best shot. The current hurdle cannot be overcome by the coach alone. Whether Matt is here or not - the players have to look at themselves and their recent performances because they are better than that.


Good luck today Fax - i am unable to attent due to a bad ankle injury but i'll be there in spirit. Here's to blind faith

theres only really Leigh, Fev and Widnes that make more noise than us, so were not that bad really, just not quite as loud as we once were, probably a lot of it has to do with the amount of points we ship, even when winning. Be nice to shut out teams now and then. but i do remember Thrum Hall days when it was 80 mins of non stop singing and we would go away from home and regularly out sing todays top SL boys, 'Shall we sing a song for you' 'your supposed to be at home' etc. etc. some good days, a lot of those folks just dont feel its the same now, or have fallen out of love with Fax, would be nice to get them back. But its gonna take some improvements on the playing side to get more down. Its gotta start somewhere.

I dare say we had double the crowds then though and we were all packed in which in itself I think creates an atmosphere.
