Many years ago when I worked for a bank on decimalisation day one old bird told me "it won't last you know"

Maybe, just maybe, that old lady had a vision of something called the Euro currency John ? And just like RL clubs & it's decision makers, depending which government ( or in the current format - a coalition of clowns from two seperate parties btw ) is in power in the UK , it might just happen, so there ! Never say never my friend.
I'll tell you what i'll do to compromise my support of Halifax RLFC, if one of you kind souls could gladly ask the question at the next fans forum or in person to one of the club directors on my behalf, maybe even one or more of the board might read this post on the messageboard.
I'm prepared to watch Halifax games so long as the Halifax matchday 1-18 is named around about friday lunchtime, maybe with a deadline of 3pm so that i can make alternative plans for the coming weekend if any Hull KR players are named. If someone could possibly pass the info onto me i can then study the players names & i don't mean Halicat posting it on twitter at thursday night's training/boot cleaning session either...
I'm quite prepared to continue picking & choosing my rugby outings but now that the club has complicated matters i'd like a little bit of help from them in keeping the club afloat with my pay at the gate fee's, 'cos apparently it's damaging to the club's future if i'm a stayaway, maybe some of the b.o.d should take a look at themselves & their actions and stop blaming other people for their errors in that case.
F.A.O. HuddShay, we had a cracking walk along the canal to the Old Brandy wine yesterday too, had a pint of something from Dent brewery 4.5% and it was OK. Had a few in the Works a brew called Snowflake 4.2 % which was grand & then finally we called in the Shepherd's & unfortunately there was no Blonde available so i had three pints of Osset's Silver King, not a bad effort to say we were only gonna have the one, cheers mate, see you out walking somewhere on a sunny day

And Behold, a pale horse. And on his back his name was death.

| Defying logic and against instinct I actually agreed to go to a football match last Saturday. My grandson, Halifaxwilliam, on the right with Grandson Nottinghammatthew bought a scarf, half blue and white for Rochdale and half red and white for Forrest. Halifaxwilliam has agreed to lend it to me on Sunday (he will be wearing his full blue and white) so that I can be seen to be supporting both clubs.
Incidentally, my thoughts on the game of football? Picking up the ball and running with it would improve it no end.

By definition you already do "support both clubs" !
Yeah, picking the ball up & running with it would be such an innovation in the footy game, a bit like kicking the ball in RL, to score a try, rather like the modern game whereby approximately 50% of tries are scored from a kick.
Marvellous stuff, learning from other sports.

Rugby Union owes its current status thanks to the thrashing Wigan gave Bath.
It was a wake up call. |

JD, not for the first time, this comment of your's has thrown me !
I don't understand where you're going with that, but if you firmly believe that, good grief !!!!!
Guscott refused to play in that game anyway.... |

Guscott did refuse to play, he didn't fancy playing against League men. He did however fancy beating up an old age pensioner a few years later (allegedly)
My point was that Rugby Union was light years behind Rugby Union in fitness, tactics and professionalism.
Until that game how many players had gone to Union from League rather than the other way round.
The pasting Wigan gave them made them sit-up and take notice. Do you remember the goal kicking duties were handed around because the score was not intended to go above 100 for Wigan in the first half.
82-6 with Offiah having one try disallowed.
16 tries, only 9 conversions.
Second half 44-16 Wigan 3 tries 2 conversions.
Don't forget that a few weeks earlier Wigan won the Middlesex 7's.
7 Years later Sale beat StHelens.
That was the point I was trying to get across.
