dont get carried away and go off on a tangent by turning the hole debate into a RL v RU issue. the issue is that our professional rugby league team took a game of rugby league to a rugby union ground who have openly wronged local amateur rugby league and are anti rugby league.

whilst i personally dont like rugby union, i respect their game and certainly have a respect for how their governing body look after their own and support thier clubs far far more than rugby leagues governing body.

the point being, this rugby union club, brought a vote at a monthly managemnt meeting and pushed through the removal of KXP from the club "with immediate effect" citing the fact that their governng body would not give them grant money to carry out maintaiance at the club (some of which may i add we did free of charge for years as a gesture of good will)

the night after at a rugby union club dinner when the fall out of the previous nights decision starting hitting home with the rugby union members.......................senior rugby union members (committe members not dinosaurs propping up the bar) told other members that "KXP had left the club" and "we dont need rugby league here" and "we are a rugby union club, always have been always will be and dont need rugby league".................i personally received phone calls and text messages from people there asking what the hell was going on and why had we left..................

so, this is not a RU v RL rant..................this is simply an issue that we should not be supporting, and by supporting you are by taking a game to there ground and putting much needed funds over their bar, an anti rugby league club who by their actions have harmed the game of amateur rugby league in the town.............

he went straight to hospital had xray and was given the all clear as reguards to a broken jaw, he still as a lot of pain but thank god for the lad it aint broken

faxhali, old crocs throwing kxp out has nothing to do with halifax rlfc ? What about their responsibility to nurturing young talent in the area and promoting the sport, to say fax have an amazing community programme( which i am sure they do ) i think this a very poor approach to the situation.

I Dont mean to be rude here Mike but after last years Challenge cup exit and northern rail cup exit due to not knowing we need a draw and playing Ostick i think you should keep coming on here, not to explain yourselves no, but to see what the fans are feeling and thinking. Emotions run high yes but that said in between the rubbish there is lots of sense on here. Communication is key to keeping the fans happy.

I think it may be a safe bet to say that someone at the club reads this message board every day.

Nurturing young talent yes, Bringing the youth on yes, Fighting battles for every rugby club in calderdale, NO

What happened to KXP is unfortunate but it is for KXP to resolve, Not to protest about any RL club who has anything to do with the crocs.
