| To put the season in context...we are lightyears away from where we want to be and thinking about next season just makes it even more depressing. Fev and Leigh are already building on what they've got already with Bradford and especially London recruiting well for next year. What have we got? What are we doing? How many of our so-called 'stars' are contracted for next year?
You can twist it whichever way you like with bonus points and budgets etc but 3rd place is a failure. I seem to remember talk coming out from KH and the club at the start of the season that top 2 had to be done. If we're not careful we could finish 4th. How is that a success?
Simply put, the squad we've got handpicked by our coach where player against player in other sides we should have been top 2 easily, challenging Leigh for top. Before the season started it was always going to be a transitional year for Fev. Powell leaving and taking Finn with him and Bastian putting his stamp on things was always going to take time to adjust. Then Bastian getting sacked and Hay taking over a Powell/Bastian side makes that adjustment even longer. We should have been rubbing our hands with glee! But no.
The most important Fax game at the Shay for God knows how many years and we barely scrape 3,000. Take the travelling support out of the equation and there's 2,500 to be generous. Yes, that might be an increase on our usual, ever decreasing gate but for a club as big as some of our fans and the officials claim we are and the so-called 'ambition' we have it's poor. You can try all the tricks and offers in the book to get the fans in, great hospitality, entertainment etc, but if the product on the pitch is poor and/or boring it all falls down. The excitement to go watch Fax now has gone flat.
I used to think Halifax was a sleeping giant of Rugby League, we were a few years back, but now we're just sleeping. I dread to think what the attendance for the Barrow game after the Fev debacle, especially if we get beat by Doncaster. Harrison has had 3 seasons of HIS team and apart from one game at Blackpool we have been nowhere near.

| Well posted Haighy, nice to see you in the pub prior to the Fev game too for a brief natter. You & I have formed similar opinions this season & as i understand things, neither of us have been regular visitors to the Fax games.
Maybe we both just got it wrong......

| Well if we lose tomorrow we could end up being 4th and that would have us at Leigh in't play - offs I believe. They have strolled this league and rightly so but having said that we could easily have beaten them twice so if we do meet again I will go for third time lucky. Anyway this time tomorrow we will have a clearer picture of what is to come so come on The Fax! Grove, shudds. Durham Route 12 5.0% Mmm!

Hudd-Shay, for a man who spends all his day drinking you sure do always seem to have a half empty glass.
"If we lose tomorrow"
Let's enter the game with the positive of "when we win tomorrow"
Let's be  not
