Top comment MM.
Linking that with some other things that were said and making logic from it.
The BOD commented that the new proposed league format would at least give a pathway for clubs such as Fax to progress to the next level a step at a time with the eventual goal of reaching the top tier of Super League, the younger players would be onboard making the journey with them.
Luke Ambler commented that he has ambtions to play at that level and he wants it to be with Halifax.
Touched on by Mr Steel was the new structure would eliminate meaningless games, each team at all times would have something to play for whether it be to reach the top or avoid being at the bottom, their would be real competition in every game.
In this enviroment the standard of play must rise and surely more people would want to watch it.
Likewise the next step and move up would possibly involve playing Waky and Cas for example both of whom would bring significantly more away support to the Shay than some of the teams we play do at present.
Crucially as said before the funding must be distributed right and as regards more people watching, it was said that without bigger crowds progress to Super League would be difficult to achieve.
Going back to the home grown players it is likely that wherever they are playing that's where their friends and family will be if they want to watch a game so it is another incentive that it's at their hometown club.
Everything is interconnected the BOD, coaching staff and everyone else are aware of this, are planning for this and other things as well.
The whole thing was the "BIG" news, and it was an open invite for us to all get involved and be a part of it, how much more could we ask for from a 2 hour meetingicon_surprised.gif
